ESPN Streak for the Cash: Arsenal by 2+

Nothing Fancy: Chalk With Arsenal
Arsenal, in pretty good form (as they would say in the UK), at home. Simple as that.
Oops, slow start, although the match looked one-sided to begin, Fulham has started to look better. Felt better about this last night....

ESPN Streak for the Cash: Clippers Now

I have the Clippers because I think the Knicks are a fraud. 85-70 with 9:22 to play in the 4th. I will look to the next. I was thinking OKC but Wozniaki is a safer bet. She can't win it all (sorry Rory), but she should be able to handle this one.

12:00AM EST And if you want to know how/why Woz hasn't won a Grand Slam, it is the lack of an offensive weapon, and as a result, can't put away inferior opponents quickly. Down 4-2, it doesn't look good.

10:20AM EST I knew that Wozniaki won the bet (miraculously), and then she proceeded to fulfill my other observation (no weapons). And she lost. The streak lives.

Watch the Games, But Don't Bet on Them

I Should've Known...to keep the hell away

Seahawks by 3 or 3.5
Psycho Harbaugh shuts out a struggling Wilson. Crowd gets to Colin and late hit knocks him out of the game. Lynch runs wild. 49ers run 2 punts back for scores. Any of this stuff can happen, and some combination will look likely during the game.
Best way: live betting once the tone is set. One team is going to impose its will at some point, and when it is, then it won't be a 3 point game.

Broncos by 5.5
Are you crazy? Broncos or Pats establish a running game that can't be stopped. Manning throws 6 TDs to 5 receivers. Belichick keeps the ball away from Manning for the entire game.
Best way: sit back, and enjoy the game by just watching two of the all-time greats. And hope for overtime. Again.
