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.

Friday Night, September 29th, 2006, may quietly go down as the day Internet Gambling died in the United States.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Congress was pushing on Friday to finish legislation that would boost security at U.S. ports, but at the last minute lawmakers added provisions to prohibit Internet gambling.
Rushing to finish their work by the weekend to go home and campaign for elections in which control of Congress is at stake, lawmakers were linking up unrelated measures in an effort to get them approved.
The House passed an Internet gambling ban earlier this summer, but the bill had difficulty moving in the Senate. However it was a priority of Senate Republican Leader Bill Frist of Tennessee, and attaching it to the popular port security bill appeared aimed at insuring its passage.
Votes were expected by midnight Friday in both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Sad indeed. Very sad.

Need another resource for in-depth football information? Pinnacle Sports added a Football Portal this year and I’d peg it as a worthy destination for anyone researching for sports wagering info.

Okay, right. Where do I sign up. I realize this is a concept, but good luck, keep dreaming.
Here’s a successful concept for you:
1 big pool
1 big beach around said pool
Age restricted 21-30 years old
Clothing optional
Brand it is as the year-round MTV Spring Break Resort
Optional: add enough extra space to run the Road Rules Real World Challenges and possibly even build a permanent Real World House on the spot.
You don’t even need a themed tower, jome funky beach cabanas that sleep a few dozen people each. That’s money, baby.

Intangibles, intagibles, intangibles. The Superdome is going to rocking tonight and if there is ever a game that the NFL would want to come up in a certain way, tonight is the night. I’m not saying the NFL is rigged, but I am saying the overwhelming emotions which are being placed on this game tonight are so strong that this game only has one possible conclusion: a win by New Orleans.
Bank It: New Orleans +4 in a straight-up win and pushing the KingsOfVegas.com tally to 4-0 on the season
The total is pegged where it should be at 44, but I have leanings to slight Under, 41 or 42, which is why I’m only playing the side.

I said take Jacksonville plus the points in the straight-up win. Jacksonville wins 9-0.
3-0 on the year against the spread. And that is free money.

It’s Monday and that means more green.
The Jags held the Cowboys in check last week and we saw what the ‘boys did last night to the ’skins. Pittsburgh? Who annonted them as an almighty power that can’t be stopped? Pittsburgh with Batch or Roethlisberger, will have a hard time moving the ball and Defense will be the name of the game for both sides.
Since most of the betting public doesn’t seem to remember that the Steeler’s were an average team that backdoored their way into the playoffs last year and caught a bit of lightning in a bottle (and a fair amount of good luck) we’ll take advantage of their ignorance and push some green on Jacksonville (+3) and predicting a straight up win..
Take that to the Bank.
By the way, if you need an online sportsbook, I’m pleased to announce our newest advertising, Bodog.com, so give ‘em a shout.

Hey, hey, money in the bank last night. Not only did we roll in the green with 2 wins on Monday Night Football but we pegged the games pretty damn close to the final results.
We said:
“…Vikes win straight up by a touch.”
As it happened:
Vikes win straight up by a field goal.
We said:
“…14+ point blowout by the Chargers.”
As it happened:
14+ point blowout by the Chargers.
When I started this site in the middle of last season, we ran out the rest of the season 6-2 on Monday Night. Combined with last night’s game I am now 8-2. That, my friends, is money in the Bank.
