Actually, I do this every year, in the pursuit of laying some out that aren&#8217;t part of the menu appearing at any other source. There are so many of them that I cannot be certain these are completely original, but I wouldn&#8217;t bet against it.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>* HOW MUCH TIME WILL BE LEFT IN THE GAME WHEN THE WINNING COACH GETS THE GATORADE SHOWER<\/strong>?<\/p>\n<p>1 minute, 20 seconds or OVER -130<\/p>\n<p>UNDER 1 minute, 20 seconds -110<\/p>\n<p>Have you ever wondered about this? When do the players know when the right time is. This is tricky, because as a seven-point favorite who could conceivably slow down the Cardinal offense, these Steeler players may just be celebrating a little earlier than expected. Then again, it may come down to the last play, in which case there may not be a Gatorade shower at all. If that happens, folks, it&#8217;s an &#8220;under.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ah, here&#8217;s one that covers the possibility that a team may be celebrating a little TOO early. And we&#8217;ve incorporated Gatorade&#8217;s new branding initiative in the title:<\/p>\n<p><strong>* The &#8220;G-WE-FIGURED-WRONG&#8221; prop<\/strong> &#8212; A coach gets a Gatorade shower, but his team goes on to lose the game. Price: 1000\/1<\/p>\n<p>In case you hadn&#8217;t noticed, NBC will be carrying the Super Bowl this season. If you&#8217;re old enough to remember, you know that this network&#8217;s coverage of pro football has not always gone without incident. For those nostalgia buffs, and for the sake of covering all angles, we present:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.betus.com\/ats\/11892\/mid\/1414\/default.aspx\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>*<strong> The &#8220;HEIDI&#8221; prop<\/strong> &#8212; The movie &#8220;Heidi&#8221; interrupts NBC&#8217;s network feed with less than two minutes to go in the game, and the feed never come back. Price: 500\/1<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of the NBC coverage, were you aware that Tony Dungy and Mike Holmgren have been enlisted as on-air analysts for the pregame show? Along those lines, I was just wondering, with the huge worldwide audience, whether it might be announced during the broadcast that&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>* Dungy will be coaching a specifically-identified NFL Betting team next season &#8212; 1000\/1<\/p>\n<p>* Holmgren will be coaching a specifically-identified NFL team next season &#8212; 750\/1<\/p>\n<p><strong>I guess we could call that the &#8220;DON&#8217;T KNOW WHEN TO QUIT&#8221; prop.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s one I can use every year:<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;BUNNY RANCH&#8221; Instead of saying &#8220;I&#8217;m going to Disney World&#8221; (or anything else, for that matter), the winning player says &#8220;I&#8217;m going to the Moonlite Bunny Ranch.&#8221; Price: 69\/1, naturally.<\/p>\n<p>The Super Bowl has come a long way as an entertainment event since its inception in 1967. It&#8217;s come an even longer way since Pete Rozelle wore out the welcome of &#8220;Up With People.&#8221; This year it&#8217;s Bruce Springsteen performing at halftime, and we were just wondering if &#8220;The Boss&#8221; might find his more erratic side while everyone&#8217;s watching, a la Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson:<\/p>\n<p><strong>* The &#8220;MOAN IN THE U.S.A&#8221; pro<\/strong>p &#8212; Bruce Springsteen complains during halftime show about not getting Oscar nomination for &#8220;Best Song.&#8221; Price: 250\/1<\/p>\n<p><strong>And while we&#8217;re at it, we wonder whether he might depart unexpectedly from his pre-determined halftime music. Hence&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>* The MORRIS ALBERT prop &#8212; Bruce Springsteen breaks into personalized rendition of &#8220;Feelings&#8221; during his halftime set. Price: 1000\/1<\/p>\n<p>Then there are these other ones I like, as we do a little play on words:<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;SAFETY WINS &#8211; PART 1&#8221; prop &#8212; The game goes into overtime, and a safety (the 2-point variety) wins it &#8212; Price: 250\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;SAFETY WINS &#8211; PART 2&#8221; prop &#8212; The game goes into overtime, and a safety scores a touchdown to win it (think Ed Reed or Troy Polamalu) &#8212; Price: 100\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;SAFETY-SAFETY&#8221; prop &#8212; A safety will tackle someone for a safety &#8212; Price: 75\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;SAFETY-FIRST&#8221; prop &#8212; A safety will be the first score of both the first half and the second half &#8212; Price: 10,000\/1<\/p>\n<p>And finally, there is some of my patented stuff:<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;LaBOY &#038; THE HOOD&#8221; prop &#8212; Both Travis LaBoy and Roderick Hood of Arizona will score touchdowns &#8212; Price: 4000\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;HINES-57&#8221; prop &#8212; Both Hines Ward of Pittsburgh and either Victor Hobson (#57 of the Cardinals) or Keyaron Fix (#57 of the Steelers) also scores a touchdown &#8212; Price: 57\/1<\/p>\n<p><strong>* The &#8220;DOUBLE-DEKKER-TRAINWRECKER&#8221; prop<\/strong> &#8212; Tight end Jon Dekker of the Steelers (on injured reserve), who was arrested on Sunday, will be arrested again before the Super Bowl &#8212; Price: 250\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;URBAN LEGEND&#8221; prop &#8212; Wide receiver Jerheme Urban of the Cardinals catches three TD passes, including the game-winner &#8212; Price: 5000\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;FULL MONTY&#8221; prop &#8212; Linebacker Monty Beisel of the Cardinals returns both a fumble and an interception back for touchdowns &#8212; Price: 2000\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;EARLY EXIT&#8221; prop &#8212; Arizona wide receiver Early Doucet leaves the game for good in the first quarter, either from ejection or injury &#8212; Price: 100\/1<\/p>\n<p>* The &#8220;GAY-NINETIES&#8221; prop &#8212; Both Pittsburgh cornerback William Gay and someone with a jersey number of 90 or above will score touchdowns &#8212; Price: 250\/1<\/p>\n<p>Those are just a few.
