Sportsbook Says Mark Sanchez Will Be the Jets Starter
You’ve no doubt heard by now that rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez, the No. 5 overall pick out of
Big deal, you say? The world’s best football handicappers are coming up with the answers.
Well, it probably is to fellow Jets signal-caller Kellen Clemens. That’s because new Jets coach Rex Ryan has been saying all offseason that the Jets’ QB competition would be “fierce.” But that’s more like farce now. With Sanchez signed and guaranteed not to miss any of training camp and fall behind, Clemens’ chances to win the job just disappeared.
It’s clear the Jets wanted Sanchez in the mix at camp, as he is just the second first-rounder to sign (as of this writing), joining No. 1 overall pick Matthew Stafford of the Lions. Kudos to Sanchez, too, as he told his reps right from the start that he wanted to be signed early to send the “right message.” That’s leadership, although he did get the richest contract in Jet history ($28 million guaranteed over five years, $50 million possible through incentives).
New York, which is 35/1 odds to win Super Bowl XLIV on Bodog, wrapped up its final full-team offseason workout on Thursday, and Sanchez punctuated it by completing his final five passes in 11-on-11 drills, capped by a TD pass. It was his best day of practice to date according to reports. However, Clemens has spent most of the time with the first team in workouts and has looked better than Sanchez, at least until Thursday.
“We probably won’t know (the starter) until … who knows?” said Ryan to reporters. “Whenever it becomes obvious to us, we’ll make the decision.”
That’s coachspeak, and even Ryan has admitted he has a gut feeling of who his No. 1 will be. Let’s see, will it be the marketable rookie with the big upside or the guy entering his fourth season with a career TD/INT ratio of
Don’t bother waiting around until August to hear Ryan’s decision. It already has been made, barring an injury or Sanchez turning into Akili Smith overnight. Since Ryan will get a free pass in his first season in the Big Apple and has nothing to lose and everything to gain, Sanchez will become the third quarterback drafted in the top 10 in the past decade to start on Opening Day.
For the updated NFL spread it’s Bodog to the rescue.

2010 Super Bowl Odds: Pats Faves to Win Super Bowl XLIV
Is Tom Brady going to return to form in 2009? The sportsbooks certainly think so as the New England Patriots are the odds-on favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV. Despite the fact they didn’t even make the playoffs last season, Bill Belichick’s team is +550.
The defending Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers are next at +900, followed by a couple of teams with a quarterback named Manning.
A year removed from their magical playoff run and Super Bowl victory, the New York Giants lead NFC contenders at +1000. The Indianapolis Colts are at +1200.
While not exactly touting a long shot, Gary Cliborne, of the online casino site CasinoBettingNews.com, believes that
One of the top NFL betting odds experts ever Stevie Vincent, Senior Handicapping analyst for OffshoreInsiders.com said that if LaDainian Tomlinson returns to form the Chargers at +1400 are “the most talented team in the NFL.”
Those looking for possible value will want to grab the Minnesota Vikings at +1800, a number that will go down if they sign Brett Favre.

American Idol Betting: Simon Cowell and Ryan Seacrest Spotted at Strip Joint
While the Magic-Lakers spread is what most concerns gamblers today, Bodog is the capital of wacky wagers and reality television betting.
And you thought these two dudes were at total odds with each other. Well, that doesn’t appear to be the case at all (and is likely just another cheap rating’s scheme). It seems American Idol judge Simon Cowell and Idol host Ryan Seacrest are spending a bit of time together over in London and were spotted at Stringfellows “The World’s Most Famous Gentleman’s Club” last night.
The Daily Mail reports the pair arrived at around
While this may have been Seacrest’s first visit to the old gentleman’s club, it’s at least Cowell’s second time out. He was caught checking out Stringfellow’s lovely ladies way back in 2003.
But still on the topic of American Idol, did you know you can lay some action down on which American Idol 8 star’s first album will debut highest on the Billboard Top 200 charts? Yuppers. Bodog.com has all the cool American Idol, movie and other television,
