Las Vegas - Welcome to PROP CITY BAABBBEEE!!!

Before we get to our Super Bowl pick, we're gonna take a daily trip to Prop City, and drop a fabulous prop on you every day.

Betting the actual game has become, well, kinda boring. Back in the day, when the props were just a skinny little one page affair, the bulk of the money came in on the game winner. Over the last few years, according to a handful of sportsbook operators, the money bet on props has gone from a tiny trickle, to almost HALF of the overall money wagered on Super Sunday.

And like anything else, if you shop around, you're bound to find some sweet middles. So, we just took out the phone, and hit some of our mobile apps. On my William Hill app, we found Ronald Jones total rushing yards at Over/Under 35.5 yards. Then punched up my Westgate Sportsbook app, and Jones was sitting at 40.5 yards. Obviously, I put Over 35.5 in my cart at Will Hill, and Under 40.5 at Westgate. If my man Jones rushes for 36-40 yards, as the GREAT Joni Mitchell wrote, pay me for BOTH SIDES NOW!!! Well, maybe it wasn't Joni, but you get my flow.

Not interested in the Heads/Tails prop, or if the price of Bitcoin will rise (-$145) or fall (+$125) during the game. Not interested in the color of Gatorade that will be dumped on the winning coach or how many times they show Tom Brady's wife, Giselle Bundchen.

Am very, very, VERY interested in a couple of National Anthem props, and think maybe the absolute BEST BET is on that list. Gotta leave you hangin' till tomorrow. Need to do a little more research before advising you to put your kids college fund on the table.
