Though most American Idol watchers in our unscientific
\nsurvey agree that the American Idol winner will be \u201cone of the two Davids<\/span>,\u201d a popular prediction site suggests that long shot Syesho<\/span> Mercado may beat the betting odds<\/a>. <\/p>\n

DialIdol.com\u2019s<\/span> often accurate
\nsoftware indicates that Syesha<\/span> Mercado at 50\/1 is
\ngaining momentum and could stun co-favorites David Archuleta and David Cook,
\nboth who are now 20\/21. The other finalist, Jason Castro checks in at 25\/1. <\/p>\n

Another popular reality show has sports handicappers<\/a> intrigued.
\nABC\u2019s Dancing With<\/span> the Stars has narrowed down the
\nfield and like American Idol, the initial favorite is holding strong. Kristi
\nYamaguchi is still the overwhelming choice according to the sportsbooks<\/a> at 4\/11. <\/p>\n

Former Miami Dolphin Jason Taylor is 2\/1, Mario is 10\/1
\n(no word on Luigi) while the long shots are Cristian<\/span>
\nde la Fuente<\/span> and Marissa Jaret<\/span>
\nWinokur<\/span> at 40\/1. <\/p>\n

NewBodog<\/a> offers
\nodds on whether George Clooney will reprise his role in the 15^{th<\/sup>
\nseason of \u2018ER\u2019. No is -130 with yes at -110. <\/p>\n}

The betting line<\/a> is
\nalso heating up for Hell\u2019s Kitchen as Christina remains the choice at 5\/6. Louross<\/span> at 4\/1 and Jen at 7\/1 are place and show favorites.\n<\/p>\n
