4). Bob’s venting: I tried to tell you in February!
Back in late February I was getting nauseous listening to the garbage resonating from the San Francisco Giants training camp in regards to drug user Barry Bonds. He was as usual complaining about his aching knees, when what it really was the withdrawal symptoms from all the “ROIDS” that were being flushed out of his system. I suggested at this time that Barry would not hit over 25 homeruns in 2006, and urged you to place a bet if it was available.

5). England – Portugal rematch from 1966 will highlight World Cup!
The last and only time that England won the FIFA World Cup was in 1966 and of the obstacles they removed from their path on that journey was Portugal, whom they defeated in the semi finals. With the Brit’s victory over Ecuador and the Portuguese rugged win over the Netherlands, these two will get at it this Saturday.
While a win is a win the play of England was uninspired and it took a free-kick by overrated David Beckham to allow the lads a chance at redemption this Saturday.

6). National League Is Heavy Dog For All Star Classic!
My, oh my, how time flies as it seems like yesterday that the National Leagues were the big bully on the block and the American League was snickered at by baseball insiders. Not these days however, as the AL heads into the Mid-Summer Classic winner of nine straight contests and also having not lost a World Series game in eight straight contests.
If we start at the catcher’s position you will notice a huge disparity in production between the NL’s Paul Lo Duca and the Braves’ Brian McCann.

8). Dysfunction Reigns Supreme In Blue Jays’ Clubhouse!
Just when I leave Toronto, all the fun begins. In Cincinnati, where I sit in the rain, the Reds finally ended up in the black against the Mets. On Wednesday the Jays gave the boot to .300 perennial hitter Shea Hillenbrand after manager John Gibbons reamed him out in front of the entire team. Just prior to the All-Star break, general manager J.P. Ricciardi blasted the Jays’ 3, 4, and 5 hitters as the reason for the Jays not being on top of the division.

9). I’ll Be Betting The Redskins If The Newspapers Slam Them!
Week one is almost on the books and the team taking the most shots in the media certainly has to be Joe Gibbs’ Washington Redskins. With the addition of Al Saunders as the offensive coordinator, Brandon Lloyd and Antwann Randle El at wideouts, and an explosive defense, the Skins were highly regarded.
It is widely acknowledge around the NFL that running back Clinton Portis is the real deal and as long as aging Mark Brunell does not cough up the rock too many times, that Washington will be favored in the majority of the games.

11). Detroit Tigers Road Record Has My Attention!
Growing up in Canada with the city of Detroit being the closest destination to watch a major league baseball game, I became a huge fan of the Detroit Tigers. I rejoiced in 1967 when Mickey Lolich and his crew knocked off the might Bob Gibson and the St. Louis Cardinals to win the World Series.
Expansion brought baseball to Canada with first the Montréal Expos and then the Toronto Blue Jays, so the Tigers became a distant memory.

12). The Arizona Cardinals a Playoff Contender?
The Arizona Cardinals arrived in Phoenix is 1988 and while the city has hosted many a big football game including Super Bowls and NCAA National Championship games, their football team has been a pathetic joke. While they teased the fans briefly with Jake the Snake Plummer and a playoff appearance, the Cardinals have not measured up to the success of the Phoenix Suns or the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Last week I praised Bobby Cox and his Atlanta Braves on their 6-3 road trip and suggested they were beginning to play like manager Cox’s previous NL East teams. Then the Dodgers and Arizona came to Turner Field and suddenly the Braves are 1-6 on this current homestand.
The Braves got swept by Arizona on the weekend and the Diamondbacks are beginning to play great ball and this comes on the heels of the Phoenix Suns getting turfed from the NBA Playoffs.

14). Hockey betting: Canes bettors are ecstatic with win and loss of Oiler Goalie!
I like many other fans were frustrated with the less then inspired by the play of the Edmonton Oilers early in the NHL season and that both veterans Mike Peca and Chris Pronger were grossly underachieving. The team was struggling to make the playoffs and as usual the inconsistent play of the goalies between the pipes, forced Edmonton management to make a move.

June 12, 2006 (New York, NY) - the New York Yankees were at it again this weekend at the venerable ball park and if you had your cash on them against the Oakland A’s, the overpaid ballplayers sure burned you dough!
In the three game set with the A’s and the game before against the Red Sox, the Yankee pitchers yielded 26 runs, while the vaunted New York hitting attack, delivered just 15.
