NHL Hockey Betting: Florida Panthers at Washington Capitals
Busy night of NHL action on Wednesday with thirteen games on the board before the league takes a break on Thursday for US Thanksgiving with only one game scheduled. In this preview we’ll take a look at Eastern Conference action between the Metro Conference leader and league overall co-leader Washington Capitals and the Atlantic Division […]
NFL Football Betting: Detroit Lions at Washington Redskins
Sometimes the ugliest matchups can produce good wagering opportunities. That might be the case here but there’s no denying that this game isn’t exactly ‘must see TV’. The Detroit Lions are bad and have struggled bigtime with Matthew Stafford sidelined. They’ve lost 3 straight and 6 of 7 going 2-5 ATS in that stretch. They’re […]
NFL Football Betting: Dallas Cowboys at New England Patriots
Tom Brady isn’t particularly happy with the New England Patriots offense at this point but at least he’s going to play. Realistically, that was expected all along though Brady was listed as ‘questionable’ earlier this week with a banged up right elbow. He was a ‘limited participant’ during Friday’s practice but from the sound of […]
NFL Football Betting: Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans
Sunday NFL football action in the AFC South might actually have playoff implications, at least for a wildcard spot. Then again, it’s not like the top two teams in the division–Houston and Indianapolis–are running away with things. The Texans are 7-4 and one game up on the Colts who are 6-5. The Jags and Titans […]
NFL Football Betting: Oakland Raiders at New York Jets
AFC action on Sunday as the New York Jets host the Oakland soon to be Las Vegas Raiders at MetLife Stadium. These teams actually have a lot of history–the Joe Namath led Jets beat the Raiders in the 1968 AFC title game to advance to the Super Bowl. Of course that’s just subtext in this […]
NHL Hockey Betting: Detroit Red Wings at Columbus Blue Jackets
To be fair, on most nights the Detroit Red Wings don’t *look* like the worst team in the NHL. Numbers don’t lie, however, and they enter a big Thursday night of NHL hockey action with a record of 7-13-3 and 17 points. That puts them in a tie with the Western Conference Los Angeles Kings […]
NHL Hockey Betting: New York Islanders at Pittsburgh Penguins
Team chemistry is important in every sport but none more so than NHL hockey. That’s why it’s so difficult to do pre-season predictions in pro hockey–no matter what a team’s lineup might look like the most fundamental component for success is how it all meshes together. There’s no better poster child for the importance of […]
‘Dancing With The Stars’ Season 28 Finale Betting Odds
This is the 28th season for ABC’s reality show. Radio personality Bobby Bones was the Season 27 winner. The season 28 finale of ‘DWTS’ will air on November 25, 2019 We’re down to the finale of Dancing With The Stars Season 28 and there are four contestants remaining following the elimination of James Van Der […]
NHL Hockey Betting: Washington Capitals at New York Rangers
Only two games on the Wednesday night NHL betting slate and with the Montreal/Ottawa game currently off the board we’ll focus on the Eastern Conference matchup between the Washington Capitals and New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden. Remember a couple of years ago when the Capitals seemed to pull away from the rest of […]
NHL Hockey Betting: Philadelphia Flyers at Florida Panthers
Eastern Conference battle among the featured games on a busy Tuesday night in the NHL as the Philadelphia Flyers head to South Florida to take on Joel Quenneville’s Florida Panthers. The Panthers are rounding into form after a poor start to the season and are up to third place in the Atlantic Division with 25 […]
NHL Hockey Betting: Minnesota Wild at Buffalo Sabres
Busy Tuesday in the NHL with 13 games on the board. We’ll look at the very top of the rotation at game 039/040 as the Minnesota Wild head to upstate New York to take on the slumping Buffalo Sabres. The Sabres started the season in torrid form but their fortunes have experienced a precipitous reversal […]
Thanksgiving Holiday Betting Odds
Thanksgiving is the traditional start of the holiday season in the US. Thanksgiving Day and the days immediately after are among the biggest days of the year for retail sales. NFL football on Thanksgiving Day dates back to 1920. The meaning the US Thanksgiving Holiday isn’t what it used to be. While the real backstory […]
Black Friday/Cyber Monday 2019 Betting Odds
The traditional ‘Black Friday’ is on the verge of becoming an anachronism. The retail environment has changed dramatically with ‘brick and mortar’ sales less relevant. Many well known US retail brand names are ‘analog players in a digital world’. The concept of ‘Black Friday’ will be completely inexplicable to the next generation. With ‘brick and […]
College Football Betting: Georgia at Auburn
Big matchup in the SEC as the Georgia Bulldogs head to Alabama to take on the Auburn Tigers. The Dawgs have already clinched the SEC East but still have work to do as they’ll likely face a stiff challenge from Alabama in the CFP standings for the rest of the season. The #4 Bulldogs could […]
College Football Betting: Navy at Notre Dame
Big college football matchup on Saturday as Navy hopes to continue their strong play this season as they take a 7-1 SU record into South Bend, Indiana to take on Notre Dame. Notre Dame is 7-2 this year but took a big hit in late October when they lost 45-14 at Michigan. They barely escaped […]
NFL Football Betting: New England Patriots at Philadelphia Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles are in the fight to win the NFC East but that sounds a lot more impressive than it really is. The division has become one that no one really wants to win with Philly and Dallas both at a mediocre 5-4. The Eagles and Patriots are both coming off a bye but […]
NFL Football Betting: Chicago Bears at Los Angeles Rams
A couple of playoff teams from last year that expected a lot more out of this year will try to find some traction on Sunday Night Football as the Los Angeles Rams host the Chicago Bears. The Bears are 4-5-0 and are mired in third place in the NFC North. The Rams are 5-4-0 and […]
NHL Hockey Betting: Toronto Maple Leafs at New York Islanders
Big Eastern Conference battle on Wednesday night as the New York Islanders host the Toronto Maple Leafs on Long Island. Yep, the Isles are playing at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum on Wednesday meaning that it’ll be an even better environment for a big game than the horrible-for-hockey Barclays Center in Brooklyn. The Maple Leafs (23 […]
NHL Hockey Betting: Ottawa Senators at New Jersey Devils
Two teams desperately trying to dig their way out of the NHL East basement go at it on Wednesday in Newark as the New Jersey Devils host the Ottawa Senators. Ottawa is tied with the Detroit Red Wings for the worst record in the Eastern Conference (13 points) and in a three way tie with […]
Colorado Avalanche at Winnipeg Jets
Big battle in the Central Division on Tuesday night as the Colorado Avalanche hit the road to take on the Winnipeg Jets. The injury ravaged Avs have done a nice job of ‘treading water’ of late. They’re in second place in the Central with a 10-5-2 record and despite the rash of injuries have taken […]
