Will Larry Bowa get fired?

Wagerweb releases odds on whether the Philadelphia Phillies skipper,
Larry Bowa, gets fired before the conclusion of the 2004 MLB season?

Expectations were extremely high this season for the Philadelphia
Phillies. A new stadium and $93 million dollars in salaries had
the "City of Brotherly Love" foaming at the mouth at the start of the
season.

Unfortunately, the team has failed to live up to expectations. They
are a far cry from the dominant NL East force many predicted they
would become this season. At 53-52 they are only 1 game over .500
and sit 4 games behind the division leading Braves.

To add insult to injury they have been absolutely outplayed by
division rival Florida Marlins, including a recent four game sweep.
They are 1-11 this season versus the Marlins and 3-23 dating back to
last season.

As is customary in all sports and especially in Philadelphia, the
manager has to find a way to keep his team competitive. If a manager
fails to do so, he can more than likely expect to be the first on the
chopping block.

"Larry Bowa has been loved in Philadelphia for a long time. He was
part of the amazing 1980 World Series team that included other greats
like Mike Schmidt and Steve Carlton," says CEO of Wagerweb Dave
Johnson. "However, as the skipper of this years team, he has to
accept the brunt of the criticism for the team's shortcomings. Fans
in Philly are an agressive bunch and if Bowa doesn't turn things
around quickly, they will be calling for his head."

Wagerweb.com http://www.wagerweb.com has recently released odds
on "Whether MLB Manager, Larry Bowa, will be fired before the
conclusion of the Philadelphia Phillies season?"

Yes, he will be fired +100 (1:1)
No, he will not be fired -200 (2:1)

*The wager above is on whether Larry Bowa will be fired during the
2004 MLB Regular Season. For a "Yes" wager to win he must be fired
before the final regular season game played by the Phillies. *A wager
on YES is $100 wagered to win $100 or Even Money. A wager NO is $200
wagered to win $100.

perceived need. During the intervening years since then, it has
