More pictures of Nereida Gallardo
June 30, 2008
More pictures of Nereida Gallardo and Cristano Ronaldo has surface. These latest pictures are courtesy of INF Daily. I first saw them on The Superficial.
I dont know what the commotion about her cellulite is all about. She is not a 10, but she is good to go in my book. I would just tax it any time of day.
Check out The Superficial for more pictures.

Wayne Rooney at Wendy’s
June 30, 2008
I love the coverage of Wayne Rooney and Colleen McLoughlin’s honeymooning in Las Vegas.
The picture is courtesy of The Sun..
I still believe they maybe just a normal couple. Yes he makes $260,000 a week and granted they are probably getting the VIP treatment at the Wynn, but they seem to like just hanging out as normal people. Again, they are in Vegas, 1 out of 100000 people may know who they are as opposed to 1 out of 10 in the rest of the world. So they can be more free in public than usual. Im pretty sure if Tom Brady was vacationing in Europe it would be the same situation. How often do you see other celebrities or sports stars hanging out by the pool or eating Wendy’s. Atleast is it not McDonald’s or Burger King right ? I smell an endorsement deal with Wendy’s or taking Wendy’s international !

Beijing Olympics 2008 Odds Preview
June 30, 2008
Im still wavering if I should cover the Beijing Olmpics ? Here are a couple factors in my reasoning:
Will you be watching the Olympics ?
Do you care about the Olympics ?
I am on the opposite end of the time zone!
The fact that you can wager on Badminton is pretty great. Bjoern Joppien is +25000 to win the Badminton Men’s singles. How great are those odds ? If you pulled that one, that would probably be the greatest bet of all time. That is 250 times the odds.
For the Men’s Basketball the USA are -325, they are the favorite to win the Gold. Followed by Spain (+350), Argentina (+700), Russia (+1000), Greece (+1500), Lithuania (+1500). China is (+6500), this may be one of those freak things that happen, because they are playing in Beijing, China may make a viable run, if you know what I mean ;). Dont forget Cape Verde Islands ! They are +250000. That is 2500 times the odds. I dont even know where that is. Are there any players from Cape Verde in the NBA ? Spain would be the next logical bet, along with perhaps Russia for my top 3 contenders for the Gold, along with the USA.
The only other options for wagers are for the Gold Medal High Jump, Gold Medal 100m hurdles, and who will win the most gold medals.
Check with Betus.com for the latest odds or to place a bet. Like all sports for any given day, anything can happen. Do you dare take a $100 or even a $10 risk on Bjoern Joppien ?
My Beijing Olympics 2008 coverage has officially begun….

US Presidential Election Race 2008 - Current Odds
June 30, 2008
Checking in on the latest odds from Bodog.com on the United States Presidential Election in November, Barrack Obama seems to still be the favorite. Barack Obama is (-230). Meanwhile John McCain is (+160). These are excellent odds. Things will heat up in the next couple of months. A vice presidential candidate will be selected, then a clearer favorite will be evident. These odds will then go down and your payouts will be lower. Check out this table from RealClearPolitics.com, these are averages from Polls conducted in June:
Obama is averaging a +7.1 margin across different polls for June, quite a difference from polls conducted in December. Polls in December favored John McCain. Even conservative network Fox news has Barrack Obama with a +4.0 margin. The biggest margin is from Newsweek with a +15.0 margin.
Staytuned. I dont think anything will change for another couple of months in terms of the poll averages. There might be a slight change with Hillary Clinton supporters starting to migrate to the Obama campaign. This will either increase support for Barack Obama or John McCain. This election is going to be exciting.

Wimbledon 2008 Women’s Singles Round 4
June 29, 2008
Here are the women’s matchups frrom Betus.com along with Nick Bolletieri’s predictions:
Serena Williams (-1000) vs Bethanie Mattek (+500) — Nick’s Pick - Williams
-Williams is 1-0 against Mattek. This will again come with experience. Mattek is playing in the fourth round for the first time in her career. Look for Williams to just dominate this match. With Ivanovic and Sharapova out, Serena Williams is now the new favorite to take it all.
Svetlana Kuznetsova (-115) vs. Agnieszka Radwanska (-125) — Nick’s Pick — Kuznetsova
-Kutznetsova is 4-1 against Radwanska. Again the it will be experience vs inexperience. Kuznetsova looks to have the edge.
Venus Williams (-800) vs. Alisa Kleybanova (+425) — Nick’s Pick - Williams
-The two have never played in a match up. Kleybanova is ranked #42 in the world. Venus Williams was serving 127 mph serve. If she can keep this up Kleybanova has no chance.
Elena Demetieva (-300) vs. Shahar Peer (+200) – Nick’s Pick - Demetieva
-Demetieva has won three in a row in this matchup. Demetieva hits the ball flat on the grass court.
Nicole Vaidisova (-145) vs Anna Chatvedtadze (+105)
Jie Zhang (-150) vs Agnes Szavay (+110)
Nadia Petrova (-275) vs Alla Kudryavtseva (+190)
Tamarine Tanasugarn (+275) vs Jelena Jankovic (-450)

Wimbledon 2008 Men’s Singles Round 4
June 29, 2008
We are down to the final 16 at Wimbledon. Here are the latest matchups from Bodog.com along Nick Bollettieri’s Predictions:
Fernando Verdasco (+160) vs Mario Ancic (-220) — Nick’s Pick — Ancic
Ancic is 1-0 against Verdasco. Verdasco has not had any experience in winning a big match yet.
Roger Federer (-3300) vs Lleyton Hewitt (+1000) — Nick’s Pick — Federer
Roger Federer is 13-7 against Hewitt. The last person to win Wimbledon not named Roger Federer is Lleyton Hewitt.
Mikhail Youzhny (+550) vs Rafael Nadal (-1000) — Nick’s Pick — Nadal
Nadal is 6-4 vs Youzhny. If this match heads into an extended match, Youzhny wont last. He has played plenty of extended tennis.
Richard Gasquet (+115) vs Andy Murray (-155) — Nick’s Pick — Murray
Murray is the home town favorite. He has been playing well. But Murray is 0-2 vs Gasquet. Look for Murray to put up a fight and take the victory.
Marcos Baghdatis (-250) vs Felicano Lopes (+180)
Janko Tipsarevic (-350) vs Rainer Schuettler (+250)
Marin Cilic (-225) vs Arnaud Clement (+165)
Marat Safin (-120) vs Stanislas Wawrinka (-120)

Spain wins the UEFA Euro 2008
June 29, 2008
Spain played masterfully. The Germans just couldnt get anything going. Spain outshot Germany 13-4. Fernando Torres put Spain up 1-0 with an excellent example of what you should do with the ball. Follow forward and keep pushing. Several times Germany had Torres covered but on one occasion, he was able to push the ball with a tap past Jens Lehmans after being trapped between the defender and goal keeper. Spain continuted to attack forward, getting several more chances. I didnt see many chances by Germany. Germany started the second half without Philip Lahm, they did not elaborate on why Lahm was not in. Michael Ballack was also ineffective, I felt throughout the game. Spain clearly maintained control fo the game. This game probably would have been out of control if David Villa was playing, Cesc Fabergas is an excellent player but for the tournament you cannot replace David Villa for him.
Here are your wager winners for today:
Your best wager would have been Spain +1/2 for +275. Also dont forget Spain was 11/4 to win the final.
Here is the highlight of today’s lone goal by Fernando Torres:
What else is left ? World cup qualifiers ?

Coleen Mcloughlin vs Nereida Gallardo
June 27, 2008
Its time for another Sports Affiliate dime piece battle. Today we are putting up Colen Mcloughlin vs Nereida Gallardo. Yes they are as insignificant as Tela Tequilla and Kim Kardasian. But again, they are semi-decent chicks that we can just over analyze. Hek, I dont even know what their purpose is or what they do. They are just soccer players significant others. All I know is that Coleen Mcloughlin is the wife of Wayne Rooney and Nereida Gallardo is the current girlfriend of Cristiano Ronaldo. They both play for Manchester United of the English Premier League. For you Americans, you can probably careless. I will put up any MLS soccer player wife, girlfriend, or fiance against any european soccer player’s significant other. I bet the european girl would win hands down.
Anyways, let me know what you think ? If you had a choice who would you pick ? If you have a MLS dime piece let me know, so I can put it to analysis.
