?? thanks just curious to see the consensus here:smoker2:

I picked Carrie the first time I saw her sing, way back in auditions....I think Bo wins it though....Either way they are both future stars.

Dante · May 25, 2005

I watched it for the first time last night...for a little bit and feel Bo wins it ..he just seems to connect better with the public

peteep · May 25, 2005

I took Carrie +187 before last nights show. Feel there is some value there.

Mr.Smith · May 25, 2005

Carries line is more realistic now at +147 at pinny, but thats still too high. She has a much better chance than those odds to win. Bo still seems to be the favorite, but I wouldnt lay more than -115 on either contestant myself.

And the TV and record people will want Carrie to win, shes what they want. The vote is not public or audited. If Fox wants to mess with the results to get the winner they want or Simon's record company wants, there is nothing to stop them. That was a chunk of the reason all along for me to think Carrie is going to win. They'll sign Bo to a deal and make a record with him too, they like Bo. But Carrie is the American Idol.

Carrie is now only +116, line just dropped like a stone. How she was +220 yesterday I dont know

Dante · May 25, 2005

+127 at pinny....Mr S it will be moving up and down all day as all these fans bet on there favorite person ....Bo is now -144

Mr.Smith · May 25, 2005

Dante,

it probably just moved back up at Pinny cause Fishhead just scalped it for a max bet.

current picture of Fishhead scalping away= :digit:

Let's not forget that even though Carrie and Bo both deserve to be there, more than likely neither would be winning the title anyhow if Mario Vazquez hadn't of quit the show, as he was clearly the best talent of them all......

The show's results are in fact audited. Fox has no say in it. Neither does Simon or anyone else.

Where did you hear this Tree??

They have always said Fox refused to have a 3rd party oversee or audit the votes like similar shows do...........

Mr.Smith · May 25, 2005

I hope thats not true. If Carrie does lose the vote, I was planning on Fox bailing me out and declaring her the winner anyway.

I ALSO SAW IT ON FOX NEWS TODAY......ITS TRUE....

Mr.Smith · May 25, 2005

Vaulted,

I may be wrong, but I think that paper is wrong. I don't think Fox lets anyone see the results. If they do, its only after Fox sees them first and could make some changes if they wanted. I believe the show is 99% on the up and up, but I would not put it past greedy TV execs or even more greedy music execs to fudge the numbers on the "title game" so to speak, to get the winner they want.

Dante · May 25, 2005

well USA today is picking BO as he is more likeable so it must be the lady winning tonight:smoker2:

HellonWheels · May 25, 2005
