College Football Bet of the Day – October 27th, 2009

The home team has won EVERY single Tuesday night college football game so far this year, but I think things change tonight. I look for ECU to win and cover the spread.

ECU -3.5

College Football 28-19 (this year) 133-110-1 (overall)
NFL 20-11 (this year) 123-83-5 (overall)

Hampton Forward Dead from Accidental Shooting

Theo Smalling a captain for the Hampton University basketball team has died from a reported accidental shooting outside a nightclub over the weekend. Smalling was a 22-year-old Tampa, Florida native who played forward for the Pirates and started 76 games over the last three years. Police have charged 21-year-old Dominique Devon Smith with reckless handling of a firearm because he mishandled his gun and shot Smalling in the parking lot early Saturday morning. This happens just a little over a week after Connecticut football cornerback Jasper Howard was stabbed to death at a school function. It’s such a shame to see these young men leave the world so early.

Langston Goes Back-to-Back

We would like to congratulate Keith “Sippi” Langston for winning his second Pure Stock points title in as many years this past weekend at Orange County Speedway. Langston winning the title was pretty much a foregone conclusion due to the massive lead he had accumulated throughout the year. Langston had 4 wins, 3 second place and 2 third place finishes during the 2009 campaign. Langston has been truly dominant for the last two years at OCS and you can count on him to be the heavy favorite entering 2010. Congrats Sippi!

NFL Bet of the Day – October 26th, 2009

Another week is almost done, but before it is we have a grudge match between the Eagles and Redskins. The Eagles are coming off a horrible loss to the Raiders on the road and the Skins lost to the lowly Chiefs at home last week. Everything points to an under in the game, but I think Washington opens things up and the Eagles get back on track.

Skins/Eagles over 37

Top 10 Reasons Dan Snyder Sux as an NFL Owner

The Washington Redskins organization is in shambles these days when you consider everything going on, but in all reality is has been bad for quite some time. Dan Snyder doesn’t have a clue on how to run a team yet he continues to meddle in all aspects of the Skins. Here is our top ten list of why Dan Snyder is a joke as a NFL owner.

#10
Looks up to Al Davis, figuratively and literally.

#9
The $55 million dollar contract inked with DeAngelo Hall.

#8
Thinks the draft is a waste of time because you can always throw away millions of dollars in free agency.

#7
He thinks someone who was recently calling bingo games would make an excellent coach to call plays for the team.

#6
Six coaches in ten years.

#5
Uses a Ouija board to make personnel decisions.

#4
Thinks the garden gnome from Travelocity would make a great pulling guard.

#3
Albert Haynesworth’s $100 million contract.

#2
69-84 since the 2000 season.

#1
Is convinced Usain Bolt is the Jamaican Jerry Rice.

Not the Same Type of Party!

The World’s Largest Cocktail party just lost some of its luster after a recent change to the gathering. The annual matchup between Georgia and Florida, held in Jacksonville, no longer will allow visitors to purchase adult beverages larger than 20 ounces. In recent years, some vendors would sell any drink you could think of (beer, purple drank, margaritas, or just some good ole fashion sippy sippy) in containers that could exceed 50 ounces. Obviously this led to people getting annihilated so this is something the promoters are looking to avoid. Even nearby drinking establishments will also have to limit their alcohol sales in order to avoid alcohol related issues at the game. I recommend stacking up on air plane bottles and tuck them away for the big game.

College Football Bet of the Day – October 22nd, 2009

Thursday night football is here again and we have two teams from the ACC that are a bit off the rails currently. Florida State and UNC both had high hopes, but have not fulfilled those hopes one bit. One of these teams will step up tonight and I think that team is Florida State. I’m not going to give you that for my pick, but I think you should consider it strongly. Take the over 49!

Noles/Heels over 49

Lamar Odom Locks in Prenup

Word on the Hollywood streets is Lamar Odom and reality hack Khloe Kardashian has now signed their prenup. The interesting thing is the official marriage license won’t be filed for a few more days. The specifics have not been released on the prenuptial agreement, but rumors indicate the fugly Kardashian girl wants a cool half a million each year they are married plus a $5 million home in case the two were to get divorced down the road. That being said, Khloe won’t be able to get her greedy little hands on his latest $33 million contract with the Lakers. It isn’t very surprising she is making these demands because let’s face it this marriage might not last longer than it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.
