Sunday, October 12th, 2008

It took 11 innings over five hours and 27 minutes for the Tampa Bay Rays to even the ALCS with a dramatic 9-8 win. BoSox starter Josh Beckett gave up 8 runs over 4 1/3, a sure sign he isn't right...last night's 6-1 beatdown at the hands of the Habs ought to make for more sober assessments of the Leafs this season. What was Jason Blake doing celebrating his goal like it was a Cup winner in OT with his squad down 5-0?...the October 13th issue of Sports Illustrated says the New York Mets leased all 49 of their private boxes for a minimum of three years at a cost of $250-$500k per year. The Yankees are said to be in a similar spot with their boxes going for $650k-$850k. That's two teams that are going to have huge bucks to throw around. Here's a long and interesting read into the economy and sports...Tito Ortiz and Jenna Jameson are having twins. Well, at least the doctors know they'll have an easy time coming out...the NFC East has only one loss out of the division this year...the New York Rangers have opened 4-0 with their second win in two nights. Guess their European jaunt last weekend didn't affect them...anybody able to explain why baseball managers are allowed to come out and argue calls? A ridiculous part of the game...for all their talk of hurting Florida QB Tim Tebow and whipping Florida, it was LSU that got crushed, 51-21...Texas upset top ranked Oklahoma in a 45-35 shootout. This is another NCAA season where being #1 all but guarantees you've got a defeat coming..the Kansas City Chiefs will move tight end Tony Gonzalez by the Monday trade deadline if they get the right package in return...Toronto FC was up 2-1 in the dying moments when a questionable penalty call was made, and FC Dallas Kenny Cooper - who scored all four goals against TFC this year - put it home for a 2-2 tie. Brutal...after two losses, now sitting at 6-5 and +106 on the PrimeTime Picks. Tonight's is a toughie, but am going to have to take New England and the points at +5. Wouldn't you? A big fan of Carolina at +1.5 and hate to say it, but it wouldn't shock me if Arizona put a scare into the Cowboys at +5...have a great Sunday. Bet wise at Pinnacle.
