Kobe Bryant Had Knee Surgery?

The Los Angeles Lakers came into the 2010-2011 NBA season unsure if Kobe Bryant would shine. His off season knee surgery has limited his playing time, yet the Lakers continue to win. Last night against the Sacramento Kings, a team only one game back from the Lakers in the Pacific Division of the Western Conference, as the Lakers improved to 5-0, Kobe shined.
Kobe Bryant put up a ridiculous 17th career triple double. The Atlanta Hawks and the New Orleans Hornets which remain undefeated. If the Lakers continue to play in their current form, they are going to be a difficult team to watch. How do you bet against a team that wins almost every game? This could not be said better than Sekou Smith, NBA analyst said: "After what we saw from Kobe (17th career triple double) and the Lakers in a win over the Kings in Sacramento on Wednesday night, no one should question the readiness of that crew to grind through this season." I couldn't agree more.

Futbol From Around the World



The MLS in the United States is in the first round of playoffs: The Los Angeles Galaxy win their first game 1-0 off of a long goal by Edson Buddle on the half volley from 35 yards out to beat Casey Keller. FC Dallas won their opening playoff match against Real Salt Lake 2-1, a huge goal by Eric Avila in the 87th minute as he was subbed on merely a minute or so before. Colorado Rapids beat Columbus 1-0 off of an early goal by Pablo Mastroeni in the 23rd minute.  The New York Redbulls defeated San Jose 1-0 as Joel Lindpere put his team up by a goal in the 55th minute. 

Ronaldinho has returned to play once again for Brazil. The Brazilian national team called for the services of the star for the first time in 1 ½ years, he will be accompanied by Neymar, who has also been absent from the Brazilian squad for disciplinary actions. Both, the Ac Milan forward midfielder and the sensational Santos player who will shortly be taking on his role with Chelsea, Neymar, are scheduled to play with Brazil for the Nov. 17th exhibition game against Argentina in Qatar.  He will likely compliment team mates Robinho, and Alexandre Pato. These two players should electrify the already amazing Brazilian squad. It is hard to imagine that national squads are already gearing up for international play so closely following the World Cup. I would not bet against Brazil in the Euro 2012 tournament in Poland. Brazil is going to win in Poland. I am willing to Bet on it.

Harry Redknapp had every right to outburst against referee Mark Clattenburg after Tottenham’s loss to Manchester United which was very dodgy. Nani clearly had no right to kick the ball into the back of the net for the Reds’ second final game winning goal, but Gomes must play the wistle. There was a lead pass into the box, where Nani collected the ball and as he turned he was pushed down. Play on said Mark Clattenburg the infamous ref, as Nani was still on the ground looking for a call.  As officials judged play active, and all appeals for a penalty unsuccessful, keeper Gomes put the ball down for what he thought was a free kick. Nani was there to put the ball into an empty net past an unsuspecting Gomes. But did the official not see Nani handle the ball amongst the chaos of the penalty appeal. Should he have seen it he would have been forced to deem play dead. Terrible call by mister Mark Clattenburg, the win by Manchester United puts them into 3rd position ahead of Manchester City. Note in the 8th second of this video Nani handling the ball. Don't wager that Nani, or Gomes will stop before the whistle ever again.

Giants Deserve the World Series

After just only one win from the Texas Rangers, The Giants win a world series for the first time since moving to San Francisco (1954 to be exact). San Francisco is a very peaceful town, but who would have bet that there would have been riots? But despite mild alcohol fueled agression the Giants deserved a World Series Nod as they excised ghosts of Giants past.

Two huge players contributing to the Giants 4-1 series victory over the Rangers: Lincecum the pitcher who dueled Cliff Lee, and kept the Giants in the ball game, and Edgar Renteria who had a huge 3 run homerun earning him MVP honors.

Congrats to the San Francisco Giants and their endeavers.

Los Angeles Lakers Week 1 Preview

The Los Angeles Lakers Came from behind week one against the Houston Rockets to win their home opener. Game two against the Phoenix Suns, a repeat of last years Western Conference Finals, the Lakers bench was crucial in the development of the game. Game 3 against the Golden State Warriors was all about the Lakers combo Pau Gasol, Kobe Bryant, Lamar Odom, once the Lakers earned the lead early they never looked back.

Tonights game against the Memphis Grizzlies will be an exciting match up as Pau Gasol plays against his former club where his brother currently plays, although he has a sprained ankle and is listed as day-to-day, also where Pau Gasol currently holds the records for 12 statistical categories with the Grizzlies franchise. Interesting to note that the Grizzlies only loss came to 3-0 Atlanta on opening night. Led by Rudy Gay, an injured Marc Gasol and a strong team chemistry, the Lakers better be ready to play.

We'll see what the defending champs do in this great matchup. I am betting the Lakers by 5.

How did Top NFL Teams Do Week 8

How did the top teams in the NFL do week 8?

The Pittsburgh Steelers who were previously ranked number one, fell to New Orleans in a show down that left the New Orleans Defense celebrating, and the Pittsburgh Steelers scratching their heads. The Steelers Defense could not stop Drew Brees' 305 yard game. Brees went 20/22 in the second half and carved through the Steelers defense. Look for the Steelers to drop in the nfl power rankings.

The New York Jets, a team ranked second also fell in week 8 to a Green Bay Packers team lead by Aaron Rodgers, who didn't produce but put Packers kicker Mason Crosby in great position to kick three field goals for the only 9 points of the game. This was an embarrassing home shut out for the Jets who had been playing well as of late, look for their rankings to slide.

On to the New England Patriots, who will likely secure their spot on top with a huge win 28-18 over the Minnesota Vikings. There was a huge momentum shift after an already injured (ankle sprain) Brett Favre was knocked out of the game after driving his team to the 3 yard line. Brady showed scrambling ability and long threat capabilities while Vikings back-up Tarvaris Jackson was thrown into the game in a turmoil of a two minute offense that proved too little too late for Minnesota.

The Baltimore Ravens and Atlanta falcons the last 2 teams rounding out the top 5 each had bye weeks.  Team 7 the Tennessee Titans lost to the San Diego Chargers. While teams 6 the Houston Texans and 8 the Indianapolis Colts square off tonight in a Monday Night Football show down. So after tonights game, of the tops 10 teams 4 lost. Tough to call these games lately.

The NBA Opening Leaders

The NBA season of betting is underway, so as you place your bets check in with the league your betting on. This blog will keep track of the big names in the big leagues. The Los Angeles Lakers take their first three games, beating the Houston Rockets, Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors in their first three match ups. New Orleans, Atlanta, and Portland join the Lakers as the only teams to remain undefeated. Let's look into their upcoming games.

Portland is coming off of a comeback win ruining the New York Knicks home opener. Most notably they have won their last two road games, behind leading scorer Brandon Roy. The Knicks out rebounded Portland the first time they have been out rebounded this season. Portland plays the Chicago Bulls who have opened the season 1-1 recently defeating the Detroit Pistons. Their only loss came at the hands of a powerful Oklahoma City Thunder. Brandon Roy seeks Portlands first 4-0 season in 11 years, but if he lets his team behind in the game early believe that Rose of the Chicago Bulls will not let them back in the game.

The Atlanta Hawks were described by Sixers coach Doug Collins "as Athletic a team as your going to find in the NBA" who is under the radar but one of the best teams in the league. They look to improve to 4-0 as they face the Clevland Caveliers Tuesday November 2nd at Clevland. This Cavs team, at 1-2 their only win coming against Boston in a big game, has lost to Toronto and Sacramento in consecutive losses. This will be a close match.

New Orleans led in a big way by Chris Paul, and David West, defeated the San Antonio Spurs, Denver Nuggets, and Milwuakee Bucks, all three games by 5 points or less. Their upcoming game against the Houston Rockets will be a good test for the two Hornets players. Chris Paul will have to keep up his 9.3 assists per game if he wants to defeat Luis Scola and Yoa Ming.

Can any of these teams beat the Lakers?
