Las Vegas -

Went to my first live UFC event back in November at the MGM in Vegas, and the SPECTACULAR Britney Palmer was one of the ring card girls. While the action inside the octagon was electric, watching Brit from like five feet away was manna from heaven!

Just about impossible to beat Denver in the Mile High air, so we're not gonna roll with the money line, but plus 10.5 fat points looks kinda tasty. For a couple of reasons. The Broncos have not been the tightest defense in the NFL, allowing their opponents an average of 30 points the last three games. These two AFC West rivals met in San Diego back in November, and the Broncs posted a 28-20 win as a 7 point favorite. Then we put the Lightning Bolts season under the microscope, and found a very interesting little gem. The Bolts have lost seven games so far, and the largest losing margin was 10 points. The other losses were by 3, 3, 6, 8, 4 and 7, so, obviously, the Chargers have a way of hanging around. Or, coming in through the back door for a cover. Gimme half a Benjamin on San Diego.

Another winner in the UEFA Champions League yesterday, as Napoli bageled Arsenal 2-0. Collected half a Benj for the win, which was $50 to win back $75, but gave back half a Benj with my wager on the draw. So, that produced a plus $25 bones for the piggy bank, and after pressing the proper buttons, the calculator says that +$1775 is the current figure.
