Pic O' The Day






Julius Peppers got tagged as the Carolina Panthers' Franchise Player yesterday, although he no longer wants to play for the team. Matt Cassel was designated as the Pats' FP a couple weeks ago, and will be a $15 million a year bench warmer in 2009. The Panthers are desperate for a QB, the Pats could seriously use a young stud on defense. I can't be the only one who thinks a trade involving these two is the biggest no-brainer EVAR, can I???


Pick O' The Day

There is no feeling quite so bad as betting against your favorite team and losing ... Youch! We'll try to just walk, no RUN away from those situations in the future.

Nothing is grabbing me today. Half the spread lines aren't showing up and the money lines are closed too. Guess we'll try the NBA again, two home favorites are in action and look like the closest thing to decent bets available. Phoenix has been on a tear since canning Terry Porter and bringing back the run and gun under Alvin Gentry last week. They averaged 141 in two games against the sad Clippers, not a monumental accomplishment, but a good sign that this team will shoot first and answer questions later. The Suns are 9 point favorites at -110 over the Oklahoma City Thunder, a team that has only won three road games all season. Hit that, and make it a combo with Portland over Atlanta by 5 at the same -110. The Blazers are tough at home, period (21-5), while the Hawks are pretty mediocre on the road (13-16). This $200 parlay will return $729.
