Las Vegas - Swinging back to Spain this afternoon for a look at Barcelona vs. Leganes.

This La Liga game is one of the BIGGEST mismatches since the Anglo-Zanzibar War back in 1896 when Great Britain dominated the Zanzibar Sultanate in 38 minutes. Yea, THIRTY EIGHT minutes. Barca is gonna do the same to Leganes, and fortunately, there will be no deaths. Why domination? Two words. Well, maybe four words. The GREAT LIONEL MESSI. If you're not a soccer fan and have never seen Messi play, get your Google on and check out some clips. If you dig football, you know what I'm talking about. The Blaugrana are sitting at the top of the standings with 61 points, winning 19, losing 5 and posting 4 draws. Barca has scored 67 goals and allowed 31 for a gorgeous +36 goal differential, BEST in the league. Leganes, which is a city on the outskirts of Madrid, is struggling in 19th place in La Liga, next to last, with just 23 points. They've scored 22 goals and allowed 41 for an UGLY -19 goal differential.

However, they do have one of the GREATEST nicknames in Spain, or any where in Europe, Los Pepineros, which translates to The Cucumber Growers! If you've seen better, yell at me.

So, EASY win for Barca, but you AIN'T gonna get me to lay $800 to win back $100. UH UH. Will throw some chips at a couple of props. First one is a halftime wager on Barcelona at -$220. Then we're looking to drop a few bucks on Messi to score a goal at -$250 and Antoine Griezmann to score at +$125. OLE BAABBBEEE!!!
