the Eddie Curry story is a good one, and I pray that he doesn't have any further heart problems. I kind of figured his career was over after a series of concerns over his heart.

Steed. For a man who claims not to be a Knicks fan, you sure do focus a lot of attention on them. They've just never been the same since they let Starks go.

i'm giving Pinnacle sportsbook a try. They seem to be the only large book that actually undercuts the competion with lower juice. And I won a little in their casino which was scary as it's proprietary flash software of which I'm quite leery. One new surprise for me was that their default adjusts your bet to make it so you win the amount of your wager. (that means if you bet $10 on the Lakers and they are -110, their system will then ask you to confirm an $11 bet)

I know these guys are on an island and feel safe from the US feds, but I still find it shocking that they continue to accept bets via telephone. It sure seems to me that in this hi-tech world where anyone with money can access the internet from anywhere, they would be wise to only accept bets via the net.

Tonight I'm going with the over on both the Lakers and Clippers games. And then I made a couple smaller bets on Lakers and Nets to win their perspective 1st quarters. I seem to have decent success betting on the 1st qtr. The obvious danger being that if you lose one of those bets and you're at your post, there is a big temptation to chase and bet on the 2nd half.
