One of the best parts about betting on the Super Bowl is that you can literally bet on every aspect of it. From halftime props to postgame antics, there are lots of lines to look through.
One of the main halftime props that everyone is handicapping right now is the song with which Coldplay opens. The favorite, according to the odds, is Adventure of a Lifetime (+200) but you may want to pass as that song doesn't necessarily have the most vigorous introduction.
Sometimes figuring out the right side to bet on Super Bowl Sunday is a challenge since it is a matchup of the two best teams in the league. However, a lot of shrewd bettors find value in the betting props.
Although the Super Bowl features a matchup of two quality defenses, let's take a closer look at a few of the offensive props on the board.
For the quarterbacks, a lot people understand that the Broncos' success is contingent on Peyton Manning's arm and what it can and can't do.
The Oakland Raiders have always been an NFL franchise that does things their way. After apparently being left out of the league's relocation party in Los Angeles, it appears they'll be looking to blaze a trail of their own to a new city.
Raiders owner Mark Davis reportedly met with Las Vegas businessman Sheldon Adelson on Friday to discuss the merits of a move to Las Vegas. Adelson is the CEO and chairman of Las Vegas Sands, and is looking to partner on a project that could welcome the Raiders to Sin City.
Almost every single year the quarterbacks of each team are the top two favorites to win the MVP award at the Super Bowl. That's the case once again as Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton leads the way at -140 while Peyton Manning is next in line at +275.
On the Panthers side of things, it's hard to argue with Newton. After all, he's not only the heartbeat of the team, he also guides the league's top offense.
The world of professional tennis was rocked last week when news broke of a match-fixing scandal, and it appears we're still just early in the news cycle.
A joint report by BuzzFeed and the BBC delivered evidence that indicated 16 players that have at one point been ranked in the Top 50 had been throwing matches over the last decade – with many of them competing in this year's Australian Open. That group of players reportedly includes past Grand Slam winners, with the matches in question happening even at major tournaments like Wimbledon.
The Denver Broncos and the Carolina Panthers will square off against each other in Super Bowl 50, marking the third straight season that the top seeds from each conference will meet in the NFL's championship game.
And the Panthers are a 5-point favorite on the early Super Bowl 50 odds, as it seems like bettors are finally starting to believe in Cam Newton and company. The Panthers nearly went undefeated in the regular season (going 15-1), held off the Seattle Seahawks in the Divisional Round, and steamrolled the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC Championship Game.
It's been three years since Hurricane Sandy rocked Atlantic City but the casino business has stabilized. More good news came to the Jersey Shore this week when it was announced that a familiar face was returning to do business.
Developer Glen Straub, who owns the land where the damaged Revel Casino used to be, has long been pondering how to proceed. He's finally announced his decision, which is to reopen a smaller casino/resort on the land. At this point, we don't have a timetable as far as when his new resort will be up and running.
Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos survived on Sunday, outlasting the Pittsburgh Steelers 23-16 in the Divisional Round of the playoffs. They managed to get by thanks to precise field goal kicking, defense and playing field position.
However, there are some real concerns about whether that will be enough as they prepare for their rematch with the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game as early 3-point betting underdogs at home at the sportsbooks.
Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers host the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC Championship Game as early 3-point betting favorites on Sunday with a Super Bowl 50 trip at stake.
And this game will feature the two teams that have been the best in the NFC this season and will show off the two top-scoring offenses in the NFL with MVP-candidate quarterbacks.
The Golden State Warriors have cooled off a tiny bit – they're 'only' 12-3 in their last 15 games after starting the season 24-0 – but they're still the favorites on the odds to win the NBA championship at the sportsbooks at +130 and on pace to re-write history.
The Warriors are half way to the 1996/97 Chicago Bulls regular season record of 72 wins and they're still two games shy of the midway point of the season. They're the clear-cut favorite to win the NBA championship, and it appears that only a few teams might be able to get in the way of their quest to repeat.
