Las Vegas - Looked over the college slate tonight, and while the spreads don't thrill me, I'm thinking about going in another direction. Don't get crazy, and don't call me names, but how about a three team money line parlay. Taking Utah over USC, Louisiana Tech over Florida International and Boise State over Air Force. And all they have to do is win. By one point or thirty, just win babbeeee!!!

And when I say sportsbooks, plural, I’m talking the Venetian, the Cosmopolitan, the Palazzo, the Hard Rock, the Palms, the Tropicana and Silverton. Double T is VERY creative with his props. You know about the over/under season win totals, which are basically set in stone once the season starts. Well, NOTHING is set in stone with Tony.

Not only did he sign for $13 million, he is sitting on top of the National League East with Atlanta, and will be pitching in the playoffs once again. It took Keuchel a few weeks to get back up to speed, but boy is he ever twirling. Since August 14, Dallas has won five in a row, and allowed only 4 earned runs over the last 37 innings for a skinny 0.98 ERA.

Still on the Brownies but it goes from love to like. Trevor Siemian gets the start for New York, and that's always problematic. He has not thrown a pass in a real game since 2017 in a Broncos uniform. And if you don't have Denver's 2017 stats available, the Broncs were 5-11, and Siemian tossed 12 TDs, but had 14 INTs.
Read MoreLas Vegas - NO ONE was happier than me and my wallet last week when Baltimore, my BEST BET, rumbled to a 59-10 victory over Miami. So, of course, Baltimore is gonna win the Super Bowl. Lamar Jackson is gonna rock the MVP. HOLD ON. They played the FREAKIN' DOLPHINS! And it's ONLY week one. Was listening to a bookmaker talk, and he was speculating that if this was the opening week, Baltimore would be like a 7.5 or 8 point favorite. And the line is now 13.5! VALUE!
