2009 World Series Betting

World Series: Phillies vs. Yankees

– 162-game regular season. Check.
– American and National League divisional series. Check.
– AL and NL championship series. Check.

When the New York Yankees defeated the L.A. Angels 5-2 in Game 6 of the ALCS on Sunday night, they not only won the AL Pennant and booked a date with the Philadelphia Phillies in the Fall Classic; they ensured that two of pro sports’ most obnoxious fans would see their teams vying for the World Series. Just kidding Yankee and Philly supporters…sort of.

Handicapping NFL Injuries: Week 2

Injuries Impact NFL Week 2 Betting

So Week 1 of the new NFL regular season is in the bag and closed with a pair of exciting Monday Nighters.
