In a move that should surprise nobody after the
Tom Brady setback stories surfaced last week, the talk is the
New England Patriots will place the franchise tag on quarterback
Matt Cassel, giving him a nice raise to $14 million giving the
Pats $29 million in two quarterbacks. Seems crazy on the surface, but when your backup can bang off eleven wins in a season, you're crazy not to when
Brady is a question mark...if the story I heard is true and that the
Toronto Maple Leafs may ship
Tomas Kaberle and
Vesa Toskala to the
Ottawa Senators for a draft pick and
Jason Spezza, that is a trade
Leafs GM Brian Burke needs to make now...after last night's
New York Knicks loss and non-cover,
Prime Time Picks sit at 4-2 for the year. Up today, taking
Manchester United in
Carling Cup play to top
Derby at -1 -107. Yes, the
Carling Cup is an annoyance in many ways, but
United has enough depth to knock off a team from a division lower who set a
Premier League record when they were up last year for fewest points in a season. And hey, all world defender
Nemanja Vidic insists
United are very much interested in winning this one. Mix in
Derby is lacking a manager at the moment and
United takes this one with ease. This game kicks off at 2:45 Eastern so get over to
Pinnacle now. Coverage on
Setanta Sports...here's one take on the
20 Hottest TV Sports Personalities "of all da times". Clearly, whoever put this together must not consider
UFC a sport - wrong! - because there's no other way to explain how
Rachelle Leah isn't top, well, two...wonder where the
NHL ranks in the pecking order in the
U.S.? In the
new set-up at ESPN.com, it is printed furthest to the right of the page, behind soccer and the rest of the sports you'd expect. Now, I'm sure some will brush this off and look for things like alphabetical order and the like but let me assure you, there's no other reason than where it stands in the minds of "the worldwide leader" who know that people read left to right in most places...reading lists of athletes with illegitimate kids never ceases to amuse me.
Here's an update...the
Boston Celtics lost for the fifth time in seven games, this time to the lowly
Charlotte Bobcats...have a great Wednesday.

Loving that United pick.
On it too. Why did it say -1 & -1.5 @ +102?
Thanks for the over last night YF. Crushed it.
Losing on United shit.
Yea easy win. Today I got the magic on the money line. They'll beat ATL.
-1/-1.5 means half your bet goes on -1 and the other half goes on -1.5.
so in the case of rotr, teehee, that means a loonie on -1, and a loonie on -1.5.
I knew it was a bad omen when that piece of garbage Kusczak was in goal.
Don't look now but I took both the Raptors and Magic on money line. Hope they don't blow it.
I didn't get a chance to grab the Magic but had the Raps +2.5.
GBVH, I've upped most bets to $3, lol. Started off bad with my very first online day, what I thought was a lock in the Colts and dropped $10 and lost $5 on the Falcons, had to slow it down and learn this gambling stuff.
