You do a pretty good job talking after the fact.
Try holding your balls out prior to the game.

Like me.......
Spain will not win this game in 90 minutes!

Bet on the Draw
Bet on the Russia Win

OUCH. sorry about the money WHIP but that was a good result from a good match.

Spain 3 -0 Russia

[W.HI.P]

Its all good lookout.
Sorry about your money guys, but it was from profits of the NFL this year, and there's more where that came from.
We still have a bet on the draw in the final to profit from!

Friday

MLB

Toronto Blue Jays vs Atlanta Braves
McGowan - Jurrjens

I'm going to this game.
I'll be right behind the catcher!

Jurrjens has an easy task facing this weak jays line-up.
McGowan throws hard, but he faces a home-run line-up.

Bet on the Atlanta Braves

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Pittsburgh Pirates vs Tampa Bay Rays
Barthmaier - Kazmir

I don't think anyone knows who this Pirates pitcher is.
Kazmir on the other hand holds a 2.00 ERA and has 68 K's in 62 innings!

Bet on the Tampa Bay Rays

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LA Dodgers vs LA Angels
Park - Saunders

Saunders looks to maintain his #1 ranking against a pretty weak Dodgers line-up.

Bet on the LA Angels

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[Undertoad]

3 - 0 Baw-haw-haw!!!

The Telegraph reports that Listerman, who regularly sets up fellow rich Russians with prospective wives, will offer any goal-scorer this evening two women as extra incentive for Russia to reach their first final since the Soviet Union disbanded.

“For each goal I’ll present two beautiful chicks. Watch the guys react,” said Listerman.

Result 0 goals! Baw-haw-hawwww!

[W.HI.P]

Ok, so I went to the Jays-Braves game, and I enjoyed it very much.
Jurrjens blanked the Toronto line-up for the easy win!
Saunders pitched well, but could not get the w.
Kazmir on the other hand did win!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

NY Mets vs NY Yankees
Santana - Mussina

The Yankees line-up may be on fire, but i doubt that it will hurt Johan who will get the win here.

Bet on the NY Mets

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Texas Rangers vs Philadelphia Phillies
Padilla - Hamels

It is against my interest for the Phillies to win as I have the Mets winning the division.
Am I afraid? Yes, with a healthy line-up, despite the weak pitching staff, Phillie is capable of putting up a serious challenge on the Mets.

In this game, it will be end up an easy win for Hamels who has proven to be elite.
The price on this game is too good to be true!

Bet on the Philadelphia Phillies

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LA Dodgers vs LA Angels
Billingsley - Jered Weaver

This is easily the best bet of the day!
Jered has been amazing of late!

Bet on the LA Angels

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[lookout123]

Spain 1- 0 Germany

Ballack is the bridesmaid yet again. Spain's "weak backline" haven't conceded a goal in three games. Great game all the way around.

[W.HI.P]

Jered Weaver pitched a no-hitter, but the Angels didn't score.
The Yankees and Phillies both got the wins.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tampa Bay Rays vs Boston Red Sox

Shields - Masterson

We're back to this battle.
The Rays started by sweeping the Red Sox in Boston.
The Rays then got swept by the Sox.
Things do look a little different this time with Ortiz out, and Manny's been batting below .200 of late.
Crawford, Upton, Iwamura and Longoria are putting up some serious runs, not to mention, Carlos Pena and Percival arre both back off the DL.
The Rays have just taken over first place over Boston and that won't be changing anytime soon.

Bet on the Tampa Bay Rays

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LA Angels vs Oakland A's
Garland -Smith

This guy offered me a straight up $1000 bet that the A's are gonna win the division.......Like HELLO!
The Angels main threat, Seatle Mariners are 17.5 games back.
Let me give it to you this way: Seattle will finish above the A's at the end of the season.
Garland pitched a gem last time out.

Bet on the LA Angels

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Seattle Mariners vs Toronto Blue Jays
Dickey - Halladay

Seattle has won 5 of their last 6.
Dickey last time out, blanked the Mets over 7 innings.
He has a much easier task today against a struggling Jays team. Halladay just finished getting beat up by the Reds.
The price here is way too high!

Bet on the Seattle Mariners

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[W.HI.P]

What a week it has been!
The Tampa Bay Rays have won 6 of their last 7 games.
The Rays have a chance to go 4.5 games ahead of Boston with a very likely win tonight as Scott Kazmir takes the mound.
The Rays remain the #1 team in baseball with their unbelievable 51-32 record.
The LA Angels are now ranked #2 in basball.
They'll be pulling 5.5 games ahead with a win tonght, as Joe Saunders is pitching at home against the A's.

Bet on the Tampa Bay Rays

Bet on the LA Angels

[W.HI.P]

The week just keeps getting better.....

Tampa Bay sweeps Boston and have a chance to really start running away with it as the Red Sox begin a series with the red hot Yankees.

The Angels beat the A's again.
Saunders gets his major league leading 12th win.

The Yankees vs Red Sox series begins with Pettite vs Lester.

Bet on the New York Yankees

For those of you who watch the CFL, take Calgary's win over Edmonton. They are leagues apart.

[W.HI.P]

The Yankees lose game 1 of the series.
Today holds a lot of games worth of betting on:

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

MLB

NY Yankees vs Boston Red Sox
Rasner - Beckett

What about Beckett?
He's a .500 pitcher.
The Yankees bats are clearly superior to Boston's.
The Yankees will win the battle for 2nd place against the Red Sox.
Boston will not make it past the regular season.

Bet on the NY Yankees

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Cincinatti Reds vs Washington Nationals
Arroyo - Bergmann

Bergman has been unstable this year, but he is capable of blanking this home-run hitting team.
The price is too high to look past.

Bet on the Washington Nationals

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tampa Bay Rays vs Kansas City Royals
Jackson - Bannister

Jackson should take this chance to bounce back from his recent off games.
Bannister cannot hold this line-up off the board.

Bet on the Tampa Bay Rays

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Philadelphia Phillies vs NY Mets
Happ - Santana

Happ who?
Right, and he's gonna beat the #1 pitcher in the game.

Bet on the NY Mets

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Atlanta Braves vs Hoston Astros
Hudson - Moehler

The Braves season is over, they just don't know it yet.
The Astros line-up remains one of the best in the game.
Hudson can get hurt here.
Great price!

Bet on the Houston Astros

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Arizona Diamondbacks vs San Diego Padres
Haren - Baek

The first thing to mention here is the enormous price!
Haren is not good enough to justify the odds on favorite D-B's, Even if he's up against a very weak line-up.

Are we forgetting that this Arizona team was ranked #1 in baseball a while back, while now they're below .500?
I wonder how that happened? ....right, they lost a lot of games!

Bet on the San Diego Padres

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LA Angels vs Toronto Blue Jays
Jered Weaver - Burnett

So Burnett's on the way out....lets see what kind of SS they can get for him.
I'm betting that he will not be worthy.
Washington's Guzman would be ideal.

Weaver's coming off a no-hitter loss ....only the 5th ever in history.

This is a 1.25 game that in Toronto is paying 1.60!
Jump all over it!

Bet on the LA Angels

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

CFL

Montreal Alouettes vs Winnipeg Blue bombers

Why would anybody expect Winnipeg to stop this Montreal offence?

Bet on the Montreal Alouettes

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[W.HI.P]

Both NY teams lost.
Tampa Bay maintains their leadership in the MLB with their 9th win in the last 10 games.
The Reds and Braves won.
The Padres paid a pretty price beating Arizona.
Jered Weaver pitched another gem as the Angels remain the #2 team in baseball.
The Montreal Allouettes offence could not be stopped as they go 2-0.

*~*~*

Tough picks today.
Avoid, or bet against the Tampa Bay Rays as they face the Royals pitcher Grienke....
They can't win them all, can they?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Chicago White Sox vs Oakland A's
Floyd - Smith

Good pitching match-up here, Floyd with an easier task.
The White-sox look capable of winning this.

Bet on the Chicago White-Sox

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LA Angels vs Toronto Blue Jays
Lackey - Halladay

Lackey holds an unbelievable 1.44 ERA! Like WTF?
He's an 8 inning pitcher.
The Angels are at home.
Why is this game not paying 1.40?
Jump all over this price Torontonians.

Bet on the LA Angels

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

MLB

Seattle Mariners vs Detroit Tigers
Dickey - Gallaraga

Seattle is on a role, winning 8 of their last 11.
Dickey has looked very impressive in his last 2 starts.
He has a tough task facing this tough line-up.
Seattle at this stage, at home, with this kinda price is a gift.

Bet on the Seattle Mariners

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[W.HI.P]

2/3 on that last day.

Nothing much has changed in baseball.
MLB Rankings:
1)Tampa Bay Rays 55 - 33
2)LA Angels 54 - 35
3)Chicago Cubs 53 - 36

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

NY Yankees vs Tampa Bay Rays
Pettite - Kazmir

Kazmir has a habbit of blanking the Yankees each time he faces them.
Actually he pretty much blanks every line-up he faces.
I'm not sure if the Rays will win this series, but this particular one looks like its going their way.

Bet on the Tampa Bay Rays

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Boston Red Sox vs Minnesota Twins
Lester - Blackburn

The Twins have won 16 of their last 19 games!
The Red-Sox, in the shape they're in, do not look capable of stopping this red hot Minnesota team.
BTW, this pays a fortune!

Bet on the Minnesota Twins

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Texas Rangers vs LA Angels
Harison - Saunders

Saunders is looking for his league leading 13th win.
You know what they say about Texas in July ...don't you?

Bet on the LA Angels

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Oakland A's vs Seattle Mariners
Duchscherer - Silva

If Seattle is gonna catch up to Oakland for 2nd place, these are the games they're gonna have to win.
This A's ex-8th inning guy is very impressive, but so has Seattle been of late.
Huge price!

Bet on the Seattle Mariners

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LA Dodgers vs Atlanta Braves
Billingsley - Jurrjens

I can't believe the price on the Braves win.
Billingsley has been good, no doubt, but so has Jurrjens.
The difference here is the line-ups!
At the start of the season I said that the onl thing the Dodgers have going for them apart from that great Catcher of theirs is the top pof the line-up(Furcal and Pierre).
They are now both on the DL.
The Dodgers line-up at this time, can only compare to the Padres.

Bet on the Atlanta Braves

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[W.HI.P]

There is one very good bet today, I suggest you use it as a base in any other wagers you have going......

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

San Diego Padres vs Florida Marlins
Baek - Olsen

Olsen has been getting beaten up of late.
He faces a pretty weak line-up, so he may seem improved.
Baek on the other hand pitched one of the most perfect games I've watched of late.
IMO, it was not by chance... He's really found something out there!
I bet that he gets the win here again today.

Bet on the San Diego Padres

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[W.HI.P]

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Toronto Blue Jays vs NY Yankees
Halladay - Chamberlain

Can you believe that Chamberlain and the Yankees are the underdogs here?

Bet on the NY Yankees

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

CFL

Winnipeg Blue Bombers vs BC Lions

I'm well aware of all the injuries and all he things the media is feeding out.
Winnipeg is clearly the worst team in the CFL.
This pays well.

Bet on the BC Lions

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tommorow

Hamilton Tiger-Cats vs Saskatchewan Roughriders

Hamilton has improved, no doubt.
But should they be favorites to beat the Champions?
The Rough-Riders remain the #1 D in the game.

Bet on the Saskatchewan Roughriders

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

[W.HI.P]

Well that went pretty well, and I'm really looking forward to the next cfl week!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Clevland Indians vs Tampa Bay Rays
Sowers vs Kazmir

I like Sowers, but he is out-classed here by one of the greatest in the game.
The Rays main threat Yankees remain 5.5 games back.
They'll need to start winning some games or they'll be on their heels before long.

Bet on the Tampa Bay Rays

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Toronto Blue Jays vs NY Yankees
Burnett vs Pettitte

Huge differences here, and Pettitte's ERA is at its lowest of the year.
He looks pretty good out there.

Bet on the NY Yankees

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Philadelphia Phillies vs Arizona Diamondbacks
Hamels - Webb

Both pitchers are elite.
The difference in this one is in the line-ups.

Bet on the Philadelphia Phillies

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Chicago Cubs vs San Fransisco Giants
Dempster - Lincecum

Another elite pitching match-up, and although the Cubs line-up is superior, it is missing some very important units at this time.
Lincecum is probably one class better than Dempster.
The price on the Giants win is too high to not jump on.

Bet on the San Fransisco Giants

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Oakland A's vs LA Angels
Duchscherer - Saunders

I've been riding on Saunders since the start of the year and he has paid off!
His league leading 13th win is on its way!

Bet on the LA Angels

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
