Even before the start of the NFL Season, I enjoy betting football. Most people think you actually need a football season underway in order to bet football, which is not the case. Many sports betting services have what is known as futures betting, where you can bet on anything from Super Bowl winners to who the division champions are going to be, and even who is going to be the NFL MVP. We are going to look at the NFC West, breaking the division down and finding value in the NFC West Futures market.
NFC West Tale of the Tape
The defending NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals are thought to be the team to beat in this relatively thin division. Finishing 11-5, last season’s conference champions picked up Ohio St running back Chris “Beanie” Wells to play the role of feature running back. The Arizona Cardinals possess what is by far the deepest receiving core in the league, with Larry Fitzgerald, Anquan Bolden, and Steve Breaston. Defensively, the Cardinals came alive in the post season. Getting odds of 115, the Cardinals are the favorite to take down the weak NFC West.
A franchise in turmoil, the St. Louis Rams sit at odds of 700. Even in a division as weak as the NFC West, the St. Louis Rams are expected to sit on the bottom of the barrel, and surely they will not disappoint. The team is clearly in the rebuilding stages, but they needed too much work in both the offensive and defensive end of the ball to be competitive. This team is clearly at least a few years out.
The Seattle Seahawks command football betting odds of 210. Seattle has made some nice moves in the off-season to upgrade the talent pool. Defensively, Seattle grabbed up Aaron Currey to sure up the already tough defense. On offense, Seattle added fantasy stud Wide Receiver TJ Houshmandzadeh. Seattle were plagued with injuries the entire season, which was reflected in their 2008-2009 season record; I would not look to Seattle to emerge as division champion – though a distant second place is not out of the question.
The San Francisco 49ers presently command odds of 210. The Niners closed the season on a high note under motivator Mike Singletary. With Coach Singletary’s no nonsense approach and shaking things up, San Fran will be an improved squad, but I believe they are one year away from talking playoffs.
Overall, I foresee the best pick for the NFC West division champion being Arizona. Seattle and San Fran could prove to be formidable sleepers; however, the chalk is right in this Western Division.

Cleveland at Chicago Cubs. Gotta give my boys the White Sox some attention now that they made it back to .500 (then promptly fell below again). Still, though, in the weak AL Central, anyone has a shot. Well, anyone except Cleveland right now, who sits in the cellar and has shown few signs of life outside of Victor Martinez batting average. Bartolo Colon goes for the White Sox, and the question will be which Colon wants to pitch. The one that crashed and burned in the 20-1 epic loss to the Twins, or the one that held his own in the 5-2 victory in his last outing over the A’s. My guess is somewhere in between, along the lines with what his ERA reveals. The Indians throw David Huff, whose 0-2, 9.7 ERA stats actually make Colon look like the great pitcher he once was. For a team stacked with so many known hitters, the Sox’ offense is surprisingly near the worst in the AL. The pitching, at 4th in the league, is keeping them afloat right now, but when Colon is on the mound all bets are off. The Indians couldn’t pitch worse if they tried. The Sox get the edge here, and should dominate. Sox -160, Indians +150. Bet the Sox and the over.
Cubs at Reds: That’s right folks, it’s an all-Chicago baseball betting line preview edition. The North-siders are the road team, facing a still-impressive yet possibly plateauing Reds team. Cubs pitcher Randy Wells is 0-2 in 5 starts this season, but the man has a 1.7 ERA and more than 5K per game. Given the Cubs troublesome, erratic game play, it’d be smarter to go with Wells’ other stats rather than his unimpressive early record. After all, a pitcher with a 0.97 WHIP must have something going for him.
The Reds throw well-traveled Bronson Arroyo, who has a plus .500 record but a nasty 5.4 ERA, plus he only has 12 more strikeouts than Wells with 6 more starts. The Cubs have proven they can smack Arroyo around, although this year’s team has a .250 average and isn’t smacking much of anything these days. The Reds, still only a few games out of first, are about the same with a .254 average themselves. When it comes down to it, these two division rivals are evenly matched with talent. Given the pitching matchup and similar offensive power, I’m calling this a baseball betting pick ‘em for the line. -115 each. But I have a feeling the Cubs will throw a few runs behind Wells and get him his first victory of the season. Take the under, as well, if you have the chance.

Blackjack is one of the most fun casino games and it can keep you entertained for hours, while allowing you to gain some profit from it as well. Unlike most casino games, such as the roulette, blackjack is not as unpredictable and doesn’t rely only on luck. Skill can improve your odds, maximizing your profit and decreasing the advantage of the house. While luck is important, knowing the blackjack basic strategy will help you win more in the long run than relying on pure luck.
First of all, it’s important to choose a reputable casino, one which gives you a fair chance of winning, get a good bonus and get acquainted with the game before you start playing larger sums. Next, when you start playing blackjack, you need to be patient. Throwing yourself in impatiently will just allow the house to win.
The first rule you should know is that you should never take insurance, no matter what the cards are. You might be compelled to take it when you have lots of money on the table, but it’s better that you don’t, because it costs more than you will win and in the long run, you will just lose money by using it.
Some players are so afraid of busting that they don’t hit once they reach 12. That’s a wrong strategy because it gives the house a statistical edge. The same happens if you use the house’s rule of hitting when below 17.
The basic strategy, which statistically gives you the highest chances of winning, is not hard to learn: you just have to remember this:
- When you have a total less than 11, hit.
- Between 12 and 16, hit if the dealer’s card is 7 or higher, stand otherwise.
- Hard 17 and higher, stand.
- Soft 18 and lower, hit
- Soft 19 and higher, stand.
Depending on the type of game, the basic rules for splitting are the following:
- Always split aces and 8s.
- Never split 4s, 5s and 10s
- Split the rest only if the dealer’s shown card is less than 6.
If doubling is available, you should also use it for increasing your odds. The perfect strategy for doubling is the following:
- Always double aces and 10s.
- Double soft 13-18s only if the dealer’s card is 5 or 6.
Since this is a game where chance is involved, once in a while you could break it and win, but remember that in the long run, you’ll be better off by playing this basic strategy.
