That can't be right. You figure you put 5 bucks on every team. That is 32 teams which = $160 bucks. No matter who gets there - even at the "worst" odds - a Patriots vs Packers SB - would net you $2250 for the Patriots and $3000 for the Packers for a total of $5250. That would be the LOWEST payout you would win. If it was a Bucs vs Colts SB - you would be looking at a $100k payday.... Either one for a cost of $160.

Now granted I don't bet - but something there just doesn't make sense. If this IS how it works - someone please tell me where to lay my bets! Its guaranteed money.
