EIR Picks Reality TV Winners… For You, Oh Readers! June 22, 2006

For those of you who dropped a testicle, sold your ‘92 Sentra (Blue Book $1200) and bet the cash on Miami to win the series as picked on this blog, you more than doubled your money (x2.4).   Now, chump, go get your car back, buy another weeks rent in your disgusting furnished room, go grocery shopping, and put:

80% of the remaining profit on Josh Blue to win Last Comic Standing @ 5-2 

Although The Big Gig has a personal friend involved in the LCS competition, EIR has crazy spidey sense tingle on Josh Blue.  He'll make the finals, and America will love him.  EIR has a nice track record for these reality picks.  Dat Phan in season 1 LCS, Kelly Monaco on Dancing With the Stars, and now we'll try Josh Blue.

 

15% on Rachel to win Hell’s Kitchen @ 11-5

5% on Garrett to win Hell’s Kitchen @ 30-1

OK, Garrett’s a longshot, but 30-1 is absurd.  I don’t know who is handicapping TV at Bodog, but they’re leaving the door wide open.  The idea that Keith is 3-1 and Tom is 10-1 while Garrett is a 30x shot is ridiculous.  EIR is convinced it’s the opposite, and he’s the only male who has a chance.  And remember, oh reality TV viewer, there’s a decent chance that after 1 or 2 more eliminations the teams will be shaken up so if the odds are being set on the idea that its going to be a full team of females going against a team of fewer and fewer males there’s a problem.  And that’s where EIR swoops in. 

Meanwhile the odds on favorite is Heather @ 1-4.  That’s not 4-1 people, that’s 1-4.  As in, bet 4 bucks to win 1.  Y’know, put up your new Jag for a chance to win a rusted Chevy Citation.  She’s definitely the cutest, which is as solid a way as any to pick, and she’s a viable candidate, but 1-4 has got to be Bodog fearing too much money on the pretty face resulting in a loss for the book if she hits.  Meanwhile, Rachel is a legit chef and has been decently below the radar.  I missed the first episode so I don’t know if she opened with a disaster, but I’d figure her to win this thing before Heather for sure.  If its making the finals because a pretty face looks good on TV, Heather, but as for actually handing someone a restaurant, Rachel.

BTW check out the board at http://www.bodog.com/sports-betting/tv-film-movie-props.jsp.  They got some sweet stuff up there including bets on crying, burning, and service for the next episode of Hell’s Kitchen, and bets on hurricanes hitting the U.S.

Mmm, as I type this the odds board just came down.  They may be re-setting  it right now.  I'll re-post if there's a major shift.  I hope they don't move J Blue or Garrett.   I want my odds on those 2.

Everything Is Rigged Handicaps the NBA Finals June 9, 2006

Everything Is Rigged saw the Miami Heat to win the Finals at +130 and knew he wanted it.  Then it moved one click over to a sweetened +140.  

EIR took it at +140.  Damn the torpedoes!  Everything Is Rigged can't pass on Shaq and Dwayne Wade as underdogs.  It's about to get under way and the line is back down, +135.  Got in at the perfect moment.  Not much difference now anyway, laying about $70 bucks to win $100.  $155 on the Mavericks will get you $100 if they take the series.  Fave, sure, and yeah I saw Dirk in that game, but $155 seems like a lot to pay on Finals Rookies.

EIR smoked 2 cigars, and is going to smoke 2 more during the game.  You seen that commercial with the guy swabbin' out the hole in his throat?  Yeah, EIR was in tears, once he was done vomiting.

Miami in 6 at +460 ain't a terrible long shot.  Ugh, looking at that +185 next to the Heat to win tonight ain't exactly reassuring.  Well, it starts in Dallas. 

GOOD LUCK BETTORS!
