You ever do bets on NASCAR?

I bet there are more wifebeaters than teeth in attendance.

I got this huge 4.50 win earlier today on San Diego's win over U-Conn.
A Quarter of that money, runs through Indiana's win over Arkansas tonight.
Another quarter is on Calathes and Nivins taking out Oklahoma (already started).
The other 2 quarters are on 2.00 (2/1) shots...Ducks over Sharks, and Wild over the Canucks in Vancouver.

[W.HI.P]

Its too late to give Duke, but they should get a win, and I did manage to wager on them with that tiny 3.5 spread.

Kansas St. - Wisconsin(-4.5)

For this game to be close, Wisconsin's gotta have a really bad game, but even in that case, they should advance.

Bet on Wisconsin

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Notre Dame - Washington St.(-2.5)

Now I know how vulnerable Washington State can be, so this is a pretty tricky bet.
Notre Dame is clearly inferior, so if the Cougars don't shoot themselves in the foot, they should get by these mediocre Irish.

Bet on Washington St.

UNLV - Kansas(-12.5)

No suprises here.....

Bet on Kansas

Texas A&M - UCLA(-10.5)

UCLA's really not that good, Texas A&M will look a lot better than the Bruins last opponent....
This one should be determined at the end of the 2nd half.
A nice 10.5 point pillow, makes this a good bet....

Bet on Texas A&M

Funny you should mention that.
I've actually won a tricast in a race that paid $86.000 on the $1.

EURO 2008


Group A

The Czech Rep. has proven time and time again to be superior to Portugal.
Now I'm not putting anything past the Swiss and Turkey,
but the Czech's are clearly the best team in the group.

Bet on the Czech Rep. = 3.00

Group B

If Germany is not gonna win this group, it'll be Poland that does.
You gotta love that price....

Bet on Poland = 9.00

Group C

The group of death brings together the 3 best teams in the world.
Italy and holland are my choices over France.

Bet on Italy = 2.50
Bet on Holland = 3.40

Group D

Sweden is easily the superior team here.
The Spaniards will always have tha Basque situation disrupting the harmony of the national team, where the Greeks and Russians are leagues inferior to the Scandinavians.

Bet on Sweden = 5.00

Euro 2008 Final

Bet on Italy = 8.00 / 4.00
Bet on Holland = 13.00 / 6.50
Bet on Sweden = 26.00 / 13.00

NCAA Basketball

West Virginia(-1.5) - Xavier

Knocking out this years Duke wasn't that big of a thing.
West Virginia is not suddenly a force.
Xavier is superior, and should progress here.

Bet on Xavier

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Louisville(-2.5) - Tennessee

Tennessee seems capable of taking out N.Carolina in the next round.
Louisville is certainly not going to be easy, but they should win it.

Bet on Tennessee


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Davidson - Wisconsin(-4.5)

This will not be close.

Bet on Wisconsin


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Stanford - Texas(-1.5)

Stanford holds some very impressive tools.
They should be the story of this game.

Bet on Stanford


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Villanova - Kansas(-11.5)

I'm not underestimating Villanova.
Kansas is simply superb.

Bet on Kansas

Michigan St. - Memphis(-5.5)

Memphis is far from being a superteam, but Michigan State is far from being worthy of participating in the next round.

Bet on Memphis

NBA

Over the weekend we have some very interesting games.
Golden State, Dallas and Denver are fighting for the 2 final play-off spots in the Western Conference.
Golden State play in Denver on Saturday and then host Dallas on Sunday.
The way the Warriors have been playing of late, i would not be suprised if they won both games.
If you have access to NBA wagering, take the Warriors on the spread in both games.

Washington Capitols vs Philadelphia Flyers
Series tied 3-3

I can't see how the Capitols won't show up for this one.
Its pretty lop-sided as there are great differences here.

Bet on the Washington Capitols

Flyers stole this one (and I'm a fan)

[W.HI.P]

4/6 today!

Flyers stole this one (and I'm a fan)

They beat a bunch of kids.
I'm generally a Philadelphia fan, but the Flyers are not worthy of being here.
Lets not forget... the Capitols came in this 67/1.
Its a team of the future, not the present.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
NBA

Boston Celtics(-15) vs Atlanta Hawks
Celtics lead series 1-0
Nothings changed here, as I said before, this is a sweep.
The Celtics may rest in game 3 or 4.
You can safely bet here though.

Bet on the Boston Celtics

LA Lakers(-7.5) vs Denver Nuggets

Huge differences.

Bet on the LA Lakers

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
MLB

Toronto Blue Jays @ Tampa Bay Rays
R.Halladay vs J Hammel

I actually have the pleasure of being in Toronto.
This presents me with the oportunity to have the best price on Toronto's loss.
With the Leafs and the Blue Jays being as bad as they are, its a constant money machine.
Lol @ the local's who called the Leafs the Stanley Cup champions early on this year.
Lol @ the locals who call Halladay the best pitcher in the world.
When was the last time this guy had a good season?
Halladay starting a game usually translates into 5-6 runs scored against the Jays.
Tampa Bay is superior and should win yet again.

Bet on the Tampa Bay Rays

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Chicago Cubs @ Colorado Rockies
R.Hill vs Morales

R.Hill is starting to remind me of R.Hill of last season.
Even with Soriano on the DL, this team is superior and should win with the pitching advantage.

Bet on the Chicago Cubs

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Baltimore Orioles @ Seattle Mariners
D.Cabrera vs C.Silva

Cabrera has got some heat.
Should he have a good game, this one will be a tough one.
It is more than likely that he'll screw up though.
Silva has been dynamite and JJ Putz is back.
Should be a win for my rivals.

Bet on the Seattle Mariners

Thats my point - they didn't deserve it - they stole it. Not that it matters much, the Caps would have gotten their asses handed to them by Montreal too.




Hope they win just because I said they'd lose

I know that thats what you meant.
There is no doubt, that at this time, Montreal would have gotten by the Capitols in 4-5 games.

Not too many people can see it as it is in white ink.
The only way that the Flyers can make this remotely close is by taking out a few stars of the Canadiens.
You certainly have a few players that are capable of intentionally injuring another.
Philadelphia will be outskated and outscored.

Repeatedly - I think that as a fan, it will be hard to watch.
