Yep Had to look it up,  kind of a dumb way to express the wager payout,  seems it would be much easier to say Xwhatever so its simple math from there.

Is this really worse than the folks making hundred of mock drafts, starting in May each year?

I didn't tell them how to express the odds. That's just how it's always been. Personally,  I've never fully understood it myself, but nor do I need to. If you could win a million on a ten dollar bet, something is severely outta whack.

I had assumed you had a typo when you posted the payout.  As far a Vikings to win the superbowl.... I think I would take those 10s at this point.
