The sportsbooks have the first batch of exotic prop bets and Sports Betting Sportsbook is leading the way thus far.

The Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers are not the only game being played on Super Bowl Sunday. The NBA schedule is highlighted by the Detroit Pistons and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

In the world that is proposition bets, LeBron James is going up against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Arizona Cardinals.

Who will score more points, LeBron James or the Pittsburgh Steelers? James is -1.5 at Sports Betting Sportsbook to win that prop bet. One can also bet Kurt Warner TD passes versus King James missed three-point shots or whether the margin of Super Bowl victory will be higher than the total points scored by James’ teammate Anderson Varejo.

Pistons players are also included by the famed sportsbook. Will Willie Parker have more rushing attempts than Allan Iverson scores points? How about Cardinals first downs versus Rasheed Wallace points plus rebounds?

There are even proposition bets having Missouri State and Creighton total points, Portland State or Michigan State total points spared against Super Bowl statistical categories.

Golf fans, there are prop bets involving the fourth round scores of Sergio Garcia, Ernie Els, Phil Michelson and others.

Fantasy football betting odds and wacky wagers are also posted at Bookmaker and Bodog Life. While Bodog is well known for the craziest proposition bets, JoeDuffy.net  and OffshoreInsiders.com will keep an eye out on all the top Vegas and offshore oddsmakers.

The NHL returns from its annual All-Star Break on Tuesday night with 11 games on the schedule. Here’s a look at all of the action in your Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

If you like the Steelers’ chances of winning the Super Bowl on Sunday, you probably also like Ben Roethlisberger’s chances of capturing the game’s Most Valuable Player award. Big Ben is the favorite at many sportsbooks on that prop bet heading into the contest, with odds as low as 2/1 at BetUs Sportsbook. Arizona counterpart Kurt Warner has a Super Bowl pedigree as well, and he’s second on that list right now.

Other popular MVP options from the Steelers include running back Willie Parker and wide receivers Santonio Holmes and Hines Ward, with Ward (knee) carrying more risk because of his QUESTIONABLE status. Safety Troy Polamalu is among the top Steelers candidates as well. Over on the Cards, wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald is getting lots of MVP action this week, while fellow wideout Anquan Boldin isn’t as popular. Running backs Edgerrin James and Tim Hightower round out Arizona’s top five candidates to win the Super Bowl MVP.

Of course the biggest question is will we see anything like the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction. Troy Polamalu will be appearing in an updated version of the Mean Joe Greene Coke commercial.

The Rest of the Schedule
