For those of you not familiar with gambling terms, a $100 wager on the Raiders to win Super Bowl XLI would make for a sweet payoff of $5100, which includes the original $100 you must put up.If 50-1 sounds a tad high, don't feel bad.

the New Orleans Saints. They are listed at 200-1. Those "in the know" must still believe the Steelers win over the Indianapolis Colts in this past season's playoffs was a fluke, as they are 8-1, compared to the favorite Colts' 4-1 odds.
