Oddjack Takes Its Final Bow

It is with much sadness that we point you to the very last day of Oddjack, our beloved brother site that's ceasing operations today. Obviously, not enough people were checking out Oddjack, and that, we're afraid, was your loss: We've never been big gamblers but found our friend A.J. Daulerio's site useful, sharp and, most of all, incredibly funny, on pretty much a daily basis. The Interweb is an emptier place without Daulerio doing his thing over there. More »

Seeing Oddjack Off In Style

As some of you might have heard, our trusty, pathological brother Oddjack announced yesterday that it was taking its ball and going home on December 2. This saddens us — as you've surely noticed, we're big fans of the site — but we know editor A.J. Daulerio will be back haunting the halls of the Interweb in no time, making the world unsafe for all beings upright and otherwise. More »

Oddjack's Monday Night Football Roundup

As endlessly repeated around these parts, we don't gamble on sports, if just because we get stressed out enough watching games without having our wallets riding on them. But nights like tonight, when there's only one game on, and it's kind of a lousy one, we understand. Oddjack has your lines and roundups for the night.
• Look out for that stampede running away from the Vikings.
• Covers tries to justify a silly pro-Vikings pick.
• We don't understand a lot of these lines, but we do think it's highly unlike a guy cut a month ago is going to score the first touchdown tonight.

Today in Oddjack

Oddjack is on our good side today, because they're getting us fired up for college basketball.
• Everything you might possibly need to know about trends and stats for the upcoming college basketball season.
• If you can figure out who is actually playing, you could be on tonight's Eagles-Cowboys game.

What you're missing over at Oddjack, the site for both the discerning speculator and the degenerate gambler ...
• Your only chance to care about Boise State has come around again for the year. Don't miss out.
• We've never used "Here's my money" and "L.A. Clippers to win" in the same sentence before, but we suppose there's a first time for everything.
• "One chick flick is worth three football games" — An equation that was true even before football, or movies, were invented. We're pretty sure we saw it engraved on a Roman statue, in fact.

Tyson Most Likely Celeb Who Can't Read

Ever wonder which celebrity is actually illiterate? Sure, we all have. But BetUS.com actually lays the odds and makes Mike Tyson (of course) the favorite at 2/1. It's all documented over at Oddjack, our sister site with the slight gambling problem (think Edward Norton in Rounders).

Among others on the list are Don King (4.5/1) and Paris Hilton (3.5/1), but other obvious choices are conspicuously absent. John Rocker, Marge Schott, anyone who ever played football at the University of Miami — we need odds on these folks. And Greg Gall, the Cincinnati fan who rushed the field to steal the ball from Brett Favre, he seems like a no-brainer. But that's just us. More »

Manning's Cute Little Cheerleader Problem

As you might have noticed, sometimes we like to make fun of Peyton Manning's (heavily) rumored sexual orientation from time to time. But our degenerate gambler brother at Oddjack has a strange little scoop that implies Peyton likes to hang out with cheerleaders of his own. From former Indianapolis Colts cheerleader Lisa Perry at Gambling 911, in the newest Playboy: More »
