Another day, another hangover

Went out drinking last night with some people that were in town. I like drinking and eating and partying on the weekends, but it really kills my Sundays. I lay on the couch all day and don’t feel like doing anything. In fact writing this post is probably the most productive thing that I’ve done all day, and it’s after 8pm…

Anyway, I just checked my ranking and links on yahoo, and this site is back on the first page for – Bet the Super Bowl – Yeah! It’s been a while, but I’ll take this as a good sign, and keep working on and writing on this site. After all, it looks like I’m getting a few more links, which is encouraging.

Tampa Bay signed Jemery Stevens, but are tying to cover up his criminal record. On their message boards, they will now ban anyone talking about or linking to records of his past criminal history. Stevens has been arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, marijuana possession, sexual assault and drunk driving. Not a clean a background…

Talking NFL Football and the more Super Bowl stuff

Yes, sir. I’m back again tonight. I just ordered a Tuna Melt, so I’m going to write until it comes. I guess the length of this post all depends on the chefs and delivery boy at my local deli.

So in Football news Javon Walker now loves the Denver Broncos vs Oakland Raiders rivalry. It seems a little late in his career to just get this, huh? Maybe he finally likes it now because Oakland sucks. Although they have sucked for years, but it doesn’t look like they will be turning it around this year.

Speaking of the Raiders, Michael Bush (one of their 200 running backs) has now fully healed and is read to lose 5 yards a carry regularly this year. That is until he is injured in week 5… and they cut next year.

Senator Arlen Specter is still going nuts about Spygate… now… after the 2007 season ended… and the New England Patriots played in the Super Bowl… It seems a little late to have his panties all twisted, but hey, I guess he hates Boston. I think most people do.

Personally, I would love to see Spygate blow the hell up. Senate investigations about how the Patriots were cheating when they won all those Super Bowls. Bill Belichick disgraced and run out of the NFL for life. Tom Brady losing endorsements. The news! The fanfare! The hoopla about some REAL cheating. Some REAL cheating that isn’t about drugs or mistresses. God, that scandal would be fun.

I could be like Michael Vick all over again. Bloggers would go nuts. There would be Youtube videos made. The sports talk shows would go crazy. Every team that lost the Super Bowl to the Patriots would demand that they be compensated. Players on these teams would look for more money. Some might sue. It would be a disaster for the NFL, and I’m sure that that is why they are covering it up as best they can. I sure hope that that Senator blows this thing up!

My damn phone was ringing and I thought it was my food… not yet, but I think I’m going to stop writing anyway… I know, I know, I’m such a liar. But I’m sitting here with no pants on… not like that I just took my work clothed off any haven’t…

Check that. Now my food is here. Peace.

Want an ad during the Super Bowl? We bet you don’t

Super Bowl adds for the 2009 game have now hit $3 million for a 30 second slot. That is an 11% increase over last year, and I think ridiculous. It’s not like FOX’s $2.7m per ad was cheap, but NBC is going to make a killing this year. Can I get a WNBC Howard Stern fans?

The NBA finals are looking for rating, and some say that they are trying to grab “Super Bowl like numbers”. Well, I say good luck NBA, but there is no way in hell you’ll come close. Even with a game 7. That’s right no fucking way.

The NFL is much more popular the NBA, and even with 2 big city teams, there is no way that basketball can compete with football. So you’ll probably get big draws in Boston and Los Angeles, but I was talking to a few people at work today (medium sports fan) and both said that they might watch a game if they saw it on. Neither had any interest in going and looking for the games, and both didn’t even know that the series starts tonight.

Maybe if the NBA is counting the viewers for all games and matching that up against all the Super Bowl viewers, they might be close, but there is no way that the world tunes in to watch single NBA finals game. The world simply doesn’t care enough. I’m also sure that plenty of Boston fans will be going between the finals and the Red Sox games during commercials.

So that’s it for tonight. Next time I’ll probably be back to talking about football again. See ya.

This site is gaining ground…

sometimes., it’s now #2 on google for “bet the Super Bowl”. It’s number 1 for “bet the NFL Super Bowl”… but it has been for a while. It also ranks great in MSN for all kinds of Super Bowl betting related searches. Yahoo is my biggest disappointment. This site was the first hit at the last Super Bowl and has since lost a lot of ranking at Yahoo. I think it got hit with some kind of penalty. I deleted all kinds of pages to try to get it back, and I think I ended up doing more damage than good. Doing a yahoo search of my site, 51 pages rank better than my homepage. That is terrible!

Anyway, like I say every post, there is a lot of time until the nest Super Bowl. That leaves me a ton of time to get my ranking back, and just me I’m trying… After all, this site has it all. A good domain name, a lot of links, history, new content (although this isn’t really sports betting related), and most importantly a motivated webmaster that will not let this site sink into the oblivion of the Internet.

I have tickets to the Yankee game tomorrow, but I’m giving them away to a friend. Work has been kicking my ass recently, and I really need to be able to work late tomorrow if I need to. Also my girl is outta town, and I would usually go with her… Also the Yankees kinda suck now… Also I enjoy being lazy during the week… Also I had a crazy weekend and I think the next one will be a little nuts too…

It’s the Belmont Stakes on Saturday, and I’m going. I have friends in from out of town for it and the US Argentina soccer game next Sunday. House guests…

Anyway, don’t feel like writing much more. I think that this is enough for tonight. Remember to check back here during the football season for update Super Bowl odds and bets. Thanks!

Betting baseball vs betting football

Watching Jon and Kate plus 8… I couldn’t imagine having that many kids. And all at the same age, it’s crazy. I realized today that they are only 30. Hey I’m 30, and their life is completely different from mine…

Anyway, I’m watching this and the Mariners/Red Sox game. So far that game is kind of boring. 0-0 at the end of 2. I’m rooting for Seattle cause I put a small bet on them. Tagging along with the Sports Bettor. I’m not really thrilled with this bet, but hey, those are the ones I usually win. That and I like the girl on that sports betting blog, so I’m rolling with the bet.

Betting baseball can be fun, but I’d much rather bet on football… and bet on the Super Bowl. I mean baseball is so slow, and there are so many games, it seems like anything can happen. Because of the number of games, each game is less important in baseball than it is in football. Injured star players will rest for a few games in baseball, when they won’t in football because every game in the NFL counts. Sure baseball games count, but just not as much. It’s a big difference between playing 16 and over 100 games a season.

Most gamblers prefer to bet on football too. Sure gamblers bet on baseball, basketball, hockey, etc. but football is the number 1 bet sport in America, probably because of the short season. It’s so easy to watch football, an if your a fan, it’s easy to watch every game your team plays. It only takes 3 to 4 hours a week to root for an NFL team, but it takes much longer to watch every game of a team in another sport.

It’s much easier to be a football fan than a fan of any other sport. This convenience is probably why it is so popular, but also why so many people bet this sport. They watch a few games over the first few weeks and think that they know enough to pick winners. And that’s why there is so much action on the NFL.

The Raiders cut Rhodes. The Jets do okay in the draft.

After drafting Darren McFadden, the Raiders gave Dominic Rhodes the boot. The was do to make $1.75m this year, and wasn’t to good last year. By dropping him, the Raiders open up some room in the salary cap for McFadden and the rest of the team. Rhodes also missed 4 weeks last year for being suspended for violating the NFL substance abuse policy.

The Super Bowl champs had a good draft, even with the last pick in the NFL draft. I’m not so sure about the other New York team. The Jets took Vernon Gholston in the first round. Was this a risky move? Everyone seem to think so. I can;t tell you how many times today I’ve read, “There might not be a player with Gholston’s upside in the entire draft.” BUT “There are concerns about whether he really likes the game.” This has to be bull. Who DOESN’T like football?

Some 1st round draft picks will end up playing in the Super Bowl

Below we list the players that went in the first round of the 2008 NFL draft. You bet on seeing a few of these guys starting in the next Super Bowl. Probably some second rounders too. Hell, Tom Brady was drafted in the 6th round, so any of the guys joining the NFL this weekend could make it to Tampa Bay. 

1 Miami Jake Long OT
2 St. Louis Chris Long DE
3 Atlanta Matt Ryan QB
4 Oakland Darren McFadden RB
5 Kansas City Glenn Dorsey DT
6 NY Jets Vernon Gholston DE
7 New Orleans Sedrick Ellis DT
8 Jacksonville Derrick Harvey DE
9 Cincinnati Keith Rivers OLB
10 New England Jerod Mayo ILB
11 Buffalo Leodis McKelvin CB
12 Denver Ryan Clady OT
13 Carolina Jonathan Stewart RB
14 Chicago Chris Williams OT
15 Kansas City Branden Albert OG
16 Arizona Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie CB
17 Detroit Gosder Cherilus OT
18 Baltimore Joe Flacco QB
19 Carolina Jeff Otah OT
20 Tampa Bay Aqib Talib CB
21 Atlanta Sam Baker OT
22 Dallas Felix Jones RB
23 Pittsburgh Rashard Mendenhall RB
24 Tennessee Chris Johnson RB
25 Dallas Mike Jenkins CB
26 Houston Duane Brown OT
27 San Diego Antoine Cason CB
28 Seattle Lawrence Jackson DE
29 San Francisco Kentwan Balmer DT
30 NY Jets Dustin Keller TE
31 NY Giants Kenny Phillips FS

The Super Bowl champions drafted Kenny Phillips, University of Miami safety, with the 31st pick overall. This is good news for both the Giants and the U of Miami. This was the first year in a while that Miami wasn’t projected to have any players drafted into the NFL in the 1st round, but Phillips got them there. Apparently, New York like him to begin with and didn’t should him much attention before the draft, downplaying their interest. Phillips is reportedly very happy to be playing for the Super Champs.

Time is running out to bet the NFL Draft.

The Draft is today, and you can bet the hell out of it, but you better do it now since it starts soon. The first round draft order looks like this:

1 Miami
2 St. Louis
3 Atlanta
4 Oakland
5 Kansas City
6 NY Jets
7 New England
8 Baltimore
9 Cincinnati
10 New Orleans
11 Buffalo
12 Denver
13 Carolina
14 Chicago
15 Detroit
16 Arizona
17 Kansas City
18 Houston
19 Philadelphia
20 Tampa Bay
21 Washington
22 Dallas
23 Pittsburgh
24 Tennessee
25 Seattle
26 Jacksonville
27 San Diego
28 Dallas
29 San Francisco
30 Green Bay
31 NY Giants

The Dolphins have the number one overall pick and have already signed Jake Long, the lineman from Michigan as the number 1. Dolphins also added two more of Parcell’s former Cowboys players. Miami traded their fourth-round pick in the NFL draft for tight end Anthony Fasano and linebacker Akin Ayodele.

Fasano was the Cowboys’ 2006 second-round pick but hasn’t played much. Ayodele became expendable when the Cowboys acquired former Dolphins linebacker Zach Thomas. Overall, this a good move for both teams, and a great move for the Dolphins. The Tuna drafted these guys as a Cowboy and now he gets to bring them over to his new team on the cheap. I still wouldn’t bet Miami to go the Super bowl yet.

Will Darren McFadden help the Jets get to the Super Bowl?

I doubt it, but it looks like he may be headed to New York in the NFL Draft tomorrow. So far McFadden has said that he LOVES New York and that he think the Jets will draft him. Of course, news is that this mother hates the Big Apple and hopes her son ends up closer to home which is Little Rock… Sorry mom, I think your son will be a Jet… and have to wait a year or two for a real Super Bowl shot.

The Super Bowl 2012 is only 4 years away. Who cares, right? Well, Indy does. From the Indianapolis Business Journal, “The leader of Indianapolis’ bid to host the 2012 Super Bowl is more optimistic than ever about the city’s chances after a meeting yesterday with NFL officials that lasted more than five hours.”

Indy is competing against Phoenix and Houston to host the 2012 Super Bowl. They lost their bid to win host 2011 Super Bowl to Dallas. Phoenix lost their bid last year too… I bet sooner or later that both these cities will get a shot at the Big Game. You figure the judges will have to pick them for a pity vote at some point down the road. Yeah, I would bet on it.

Of course, the big news is that the NFL Draft is tomorrow. Can you bet on the NFL draft picks? Sure! BoDog is offering all kinds of prop bets on the NFL Draft. You can bet all kinds of things from “Who will the Kansas City Chiefs take with the #5 pick in the NFL Draft?” to “Who will be the first RB drafted by the Chicago Bears in the 2008 NFL draft?” If you interested in making the draft more interesting with some wagers, check out bodog (There is a link on our homepage).

Megan Fox is sexy and those cheating Pats

Hello Megan Fox, the world’s sexiest chick of 2008. Is that an Autobot in my pocket or am I just happy to look at her half naked body?

megan fox

Very, very soon, we will (hopefully) find out what big, stinking liars the Pats are… or aren’t. Matt Walsh is leaving Hawaii for NYC to rat out to the NFL’s the best modern day football franchise and the winner of 3 Super Bowls in the last 10 years.

They went to 4 but thankfully lost the latest Super Bowl to the New York Giants. Ironically, they lost the year that they were caught cheating… and probably stop cheating. I’m not sure if irony is the right word there.

Anyway, the New England Patriots have been accused and even sued over them supposedly cheating in their Super Bowl victory vs the Saint Louis Rams. Personally, I hope that they did cheat, and I hope that it will come out in Walsh’s testimony.

Then I hope everyone sues the hell out of New England… All the players that lost the Super Bowl. Everyone who bet the Super Bowl. Hell even everyone who watched the Super Bowl.

Of course, the NFL is extremely strong and the truth might never come to light. Kind of like all the bad calls in the Seattle/Pittsburgh Super Bowl when the refs determined the outcome of that game.

There is so much BS in the NFL that I wouldn’t be surprised if they already know the truth and are trying the bury the hell out of it. After all, they did destroy the evidence (the Pats video tapes of other teams) against the Pats that they had earlier this year. If it gets out that the Patriots cheated in a Super Bowl (which they probably did), the NFL might have big problems.

We’ll just have to wait and see.
