chicago white sox vs toronto blue jays
contreras - halladay

i'm not a blue jay hater, i simply enjoy lingering in reality rather than the false image thats presented itself.

bet on the chicago white sox

la angels vs seattle mariners
weaver - washburn

once players start returning to the rotation line-up, the angels will pull away with this division.
till then, they'll have to keep winning with their 2 major league starters that remain active.

76ers lead series 2-1

its no suprise that 76ers are winning this series.

bet on the philadelphia 76ers

houston rockets[-4.5] vs portland trail blazers
rockets lead series 2-1

i expect aldridge to dominate, to even this series.

bet on the portland trail blazers

[W.HI.P]

kaa-ching on the nba as we beat both spreads, although the jays won, jered weaver pitched a gem, shutting out seattle for the win.

atlanta braves vs st.louis cardinals
jurrjens - pineiro

i've been riding on jurrjens since last season and all he does is win.

bet on the atlanta braves

[W.HI.P]

nba

orlando magic[-8.5] vs philadelphia 76ers

i believe that the 76ers are capable of taking the magic out.
8 1/2 points makes this an easy wager.

bet on the philadelphia 76ers

portland trail blazers[-5.5] vs houston rockets

it might have been a different story if mcgrady was around, but he's not.

bet on the portland trail blazers

mlb

baltimore orioles vs la angels
eaton - saunders

saunders and weaver will always be good bets as they are elite.

bet on the la angels

kansas city royals vs toronto blue jays
meche - richmond

there is no comparing these two teams, the royals are by far superior.

bet on the kansas city royals

colorado rockies vs san diego padres
de la rosa - gaudin

i like what i've seen from de la rosa, and he's up against a very weak line-up.

bet on the colorado rockies

san fransisco giants vs la dodgers
sanchez - billingsley

billingsley is amazing and the dodgers are superior.
sanchez may get beat up, but he can also be dominating.
the price is really high on the giants win, so lets take a chance on it.

bet on the san fransisco giants

NHL

Eastern Conference Semi-Finals

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

Boston Bruins vs Carolina Hurricanes

It really makes no difference, New Jersey or Carolina.
Neither team would have a chance against this Bruins team.

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

Washington Capitals vs Pittsburgh Penguins

Now this series is not going to be easy for Washington.
I do believe they have the edge, despite the Penguins holding the superior goaltender, and obviously the experience.
If i have to make the call....

Washington Capitals in 7

Western Conference Semi-Finals

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

Detroit Red Wings vs Anaheim Ducks

Chris Pronger, should the ducks make it to the stanley cup finals, will have participated in 3 of the last 4 stanley cup finals!
Detroit is not as good as they've been these past few years, and Anaheim is in their last year with their veterans.

Anaheim Ducks in 6

Vancouver Canucks vs Chicago Black Hawks

The only way that the mediocre Canucks can get any further in the play-offs. is if some devine intervention is made to help a Canadian team progress deeper.

[W.HI.P]

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

arizona diamondbacks vs chicago cubs
davis - dempster

last season, the cubs got a couple suprises.
fukudome and soto.
no one expected fukudome to do well again this year, but here he is surpassing everyone's expectations.
soto hasn't had the same kinda start, but he can only get better.
i like dempster, and until he shows me some fault, i'll be riding on him.

bet on the chicago cubs

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

cincinnati reds vs houston astros
volquez - paulino

despite houson's record, they actually look better than i had originally evaluated.
the reds votto is a true phenomena of the sport, and when phillips starts pulling it together, they'll be scoring quite a few runs.
till then, they'll rely on volquez pitching gems, which he should.

bet on the cincinnati reds

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

minnesota twins vs tampa bay rays
blackburn - kazmir

the twins line-up isn't as strong without mauer.
he should be back soon.
kazmir should get an easy win here.

bet on the tampa bay rays

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

san fransisco giants vs la dodgers
lincecum - stults

lincecum is arguably the best starter in the game.
how does the giants win pay so much under the circumstance.

bet on the san fransisco giants

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

[W.HI.P]

the odds-makers are pushing it a little, offering really high prices on some games.... we must jump all over them at this juncture....

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

toronto blue jays vs baltimore orioles
halladay - hendrickson

they're treating this game like italy is playing at home against moldova in the world cup [soccer].
halladay is pushing 4.00 on the era for the pink unicorns sake.
the orioles will finish above the jays when this season is over and done with.

bet on the baltimore orioles

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

ny yankees vs la angels
weaver - pettitte

am i afraid for weaver pitching against this line-up in this ball-park ...like yeah.... but he is superior to pettitte, and the angels are under-dogs....as i've said before, the angels have to win these games to remain around the .500 mark till they get some of their starters back.

bet on the la angels

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

washington nationals vs st.louis cardinals
zimmerman - wellemeyer

the natinals have started hitting, and zimmerman looks really good out there.
the price is right, lets take it.

bet on the washington nationals

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

san fransisco giants vs colorado rockies
johnson - jimenez

i think both starters are gonna look good out there tonight.
jimenez is greater than his numbers look, and randy is striking out guys like theres no tommorow.
the line-ups are under par at this time.

bet on the under

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

washington capitals vs pittsburgh penguins

the capitals will need to win at home if they wanna go through.
the igloo will be tough for them.

bet on the washington capitals

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

vancouver canucks vs chicago blackhawks

this is the base of all bets for today.
chicago is superior on every level and should get the easy win today.
sorry canadians, but your last representative sucks

How bout them Sixers?

[W.HI.P]

the sixers had an amazing year, exceeding all expectations.

we won quite a bit of money today as the blackhawks showed their superiority over the mediocre canucks beating them 6-3.
the capitals edged past the penguins 3-2.

we've got some early birds tommorow, so i'll post them now.....

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

pittsburgh pirates vs cincinnati reds
karstens - cueto

cueto is looking really good out there this season.
votto is a phenomena.
bruce has some serious power, and phillips is starting to pick it up.
f.cordero puts the reds into contention this season.

bet on the cincinnati reds

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

detroit red wings vs anaheim ducks

the ducks should win this series.
they're gonna have to win at least one game in detroit to succeed.
the price is too high to ignore.

bet on the anaheim ducks

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

[W.HI.P]

Another perfect day as the ducks beat the red wings 3-2.
cueto got the shut-out as the reds 5-0.

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

LA Angels vs Oakland A's

Saunders must be pretty happy with yesturday's postponed game.
He gets to face the A.s instead of the Yankees.
A much easier task.

Bet on the LA Angels

[W.HI.P]

we're on a roll now going perfect over the past 3 days.
saunders pitched a gem as the angels beat the a's 5-2.

we've got to break perfection, so i'll post a few in hope that we'll lose one

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

chicago cubs vs san fransisco giants
marshall - lincecum

when it comes to baseball, i know my shit.... i watch, very closely, with an open mind.
what i saw from lincecum in his last game, the movement, everything, is about as perfect as a pitcher can get.
lincecum is the true elite of this game at this time.
yes the cubs are superior and at home, but you'd have to be out of your mind to bet against this guy knowing what i know.

bet on the san fransisco giants

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

florida marlins vs cincinnati reds
volstad - volquez

this is a hitters park, but i doubt that florida will be able to hit against volquez after his last outing.
volquez is superior, the reds are a better team, and at home.

bet on the cincinnati reds

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

chicago black hawks vs vancouver canucks
series tied 1-1

chicago scores at will against this mediocre team with their mediocre goalie.
vancouver is fortunate to be present at this time.

bet on the chicago black hawks

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

anaheim ducks vs detroit red wings
series tied 1-1

i can't imagine how detroit can win this series, they are out-matched.

bet on the anaheim ducks

[W.HI.P]

we're still on a pretty good roll here, winning 8 of our last 9.
the ducks beat the red wings 2-1.
the canucks got home ice back, beating chicago 3-1.
volquez shut out florida allowing only 3 hits in 8 innings, recording 7 k's as the reds beat the marlins 7-0.

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

colorado rockies vs san fransisco giants
jimenez - johnson

both pitchers are coming off good outings.
both line-ups are under par.

bet on the under

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

carolina hurricanes vs boston bruins
series tied 1-1

the bruins had to lose 1 of the first 4 games to bring it home for game 5.
these teams are leagues apart.

bet on the boston bruins

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

[W.HI.P]

jimenez pitched a gem, but randy couldn't match that as the rockies ran up the score.
the bruins got upset at home in ot.


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

anaheim ducks vs detroit red wings
anaheim leads the series 2-1

chris pronger should be participating in his 3rd stanley cup over the past 4 years.
he managed to take out a much better detroit team, playing with a much weaker oilers team.
anaheim picking up whitney to add to their already super defence, putting them well above the rest.

bet on the anaheim ducks


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

chicago black hawks vs vancouver canucks
vancouver leads the series 2-1

i actually hope that vancouver wins this series.
it would give my ducks a much easier task in the western conference final.
reality though, holds the canucks inferior to most of the teams in the nhl, so....

bet on the chicago black hawks


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

anaheim angels vs toronto blue jays
weaver - ray

weaver's finally getting his pitch to drop, it should be too tough to handle for this mediocre blue jays team.

bet on the la angels


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

la dodgers vs washington nationals
wolf - zimmerman

the dodgers are 13-0 at home... quite impressive indeed.
i figure, if they're gonna lose at home, it'll be with wolf pitching.
zimmerman's got some pretty good stuff.
huge huge price here.

bet on the washington nationals
