No brainer tonight. Chicago is outscoring their opponents by 24 points per game. Arizona and defense? They don’t even belong in the same sentence.
Take Chicago -11.5 all the way to the bank.

Good Defenses, a snake that hasn’t found his stride and the rarified air of the Mile High City. The Donkeys will squeak it out 17-14. The line is D-Town -5.5, so take the Ravens with the points.
Kids, when I hit this game tonight, I’ll be 6-0 on the season and will be destined to star in my own movie.
Take it to the bank

Harrah’s received an unsolicited offer today which sent the share price soaring.
From Yahoo News:
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Harrah’s Entertainment Inc. (NYSE:HET - news), the world’s biggest casino operator, on Monday said it had received a $15 billion buyout offer from private equity firms Apollo Management and Texas Pacific Group. (TPG.UL), sending shares of the whole gaming sector up.
The proposed deal, which would rank as the fifth-largest leveraged buyout on record, signals new interest in the gambling sector for heavily funded private equity groups, which have struck big deals this year in health care, media and technology.
Las Vegas-based Harrah’s — which owns or manages more than 40 casinos, mainly under the Harrah’s, Caesars and Horseshoe brands — gave no indication that it would accept the deal. It said it had formed a special committee of its non-management directors to review the proposal.

Favre’s O-line won’t be able to stop the improved D-line of the Eagles. McNabb is back in form and the Packer’s will be chasingn all night long - and for Favre, that means intereceptions.
For your free money on Monday Night and our official pick, Take the Eagles -11. Money in the bank.
I’m also throwing another unit on the parlay with the OVER at 48.5, but no higher than 49.5

Now that the Internet Gambling Ban has been approved and will likely be signed into law within the next two weeks, many London-based online casinos are already starting to shut down US-focused operations.
From the TimesOnline.co.uk:
AMERICA’s $6 billion (£3.2 billion) internet gambling industry is facing meltdown after the US Senate pushed through a Bill at the weekend outlawing the processing of bets by banks and credit companies.
The surprise move, which is expected to spark a massive share sell-off, will prompt London-listed 888 Holdings to announce this morning that it is halting its entire US-facing operation, accounting for half its business.
PartyGaming, the world’s biggest internet gambling company, said last night that it was “still evaluating the situation”, although industry sources believe it will also announce a cessation of its services to American punters.
While I initially thought that there would be enough loopholes to get around the account financing issues, I’m not as optimistic at this time.
I think the implications of this bill will only drive gambling back into an underground industry. Local bookies, welcome back.
