I wonder if the oddsmakers are of the belief that there is a DORNA/FIM
conspiracy, a Honda conspiracy or that Hayden will fold under pressure?

I suspect it's entirely on how they think the betting will go, which is
what it always is.
I wonder what odds they'd put on Sundpissed posting something on this
newsgroup of substance and not coming off as a sarcastic asshole? Hmm,
long ones indeed...

None of the above. I think they're just reacting to the bets they take.
Personally, I think it's going to be a very, very close thing. 12 points
in two races is just too much to be able to say anything with any
certainty. Rossi has to win both, Hayden has to come second in both. I
don't think either of those are sure fire, or perhaps even likely.

Agreed. Interesting parallel with F1, where it looked like Schumacher
might snatch it from Alonso, but fell at the penultimate hurdle.
Similarly, while the momentum is with Rossi, one slip and it'll be
gone.
