MLB 10 In A Row Blitz

Posted by ricky on Thursday, August 07, 2008

Takis28 was nice enough to sponsor this new contest here on GP putting 100 bucks to anybody that manages to hit 10 straight MLB ML bets.

A couple of people have made it to 8 and 9 in a row. Takis28 himself is at 9 right now. Will he win his own contest???
