Apparently, Bill Belichick is running lower on brain power and Tom Brady’s man card is expiring. A high percentage of the betting public no longer respects the New England Patriots’ greatness.
Football
One of the most memorable quotes of the NFL season came from New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin. It was not something he said during a news conference, rather a sarcastic line he shouted during a raucous locker-room celebration.
With the stage set for heroes to emerge, Eli Manning came the closest to resembling one. Manning again proved he’s an elite quarterback by guiding the New York Giants to another Super Bowl.
This time around, the New England Patriots are not perfect, and their opponent is far from it. But quarterback Tom Brady’s return to the Super Bowl, in a rematch against the New York Giants, sets up an ideal matchup for Las Vegas sports books.
A tight Super Bowl went to Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. And after further review, Nevada’s sports books also won a close decision.
Aaron Rodgers led the Green Bay Packers to a Super Bowl victory Sunday, and a majority of the betting public followed the favorite to a big payday.
The Green Bay Packers are 2½-point favorites over the Pittsburgh Steelers in today’s game, and the total is 45. A survey of Super Bowl opinions from Las Vegas Review-Journal staff members, other media and Las Vegas handicappers.
It’s a great day and a sad time all rolled into one. We’re anticipating the Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers will put on a spectacular show befitting the Super Bowl hype, but we also know that by 7 p.m. we’ll be bemoaning the fact that the next meaningful football game is seven months away.
It’s Super Bowl eve, and a mother pushes a stroller while her two young daughters walk on each side of her outside the sports book at Mandalay Bay.
Attending the Super Bowl is overrated. I would much rather watch the game in a Las Vegas sports book, and it just so happens that Mayor Oscar Goodman agrees. That’s no surprise, obviously, because Goodman is this playground’s top pitchman.
