MLB and union are pretty much in agreement on a couple things: expanded playoffs and universal DH. And they are close to agreeing on the all-important health protocols. Of course if MLB imposes a very short season — 40-50 games — all bets are off on anything and everything else.

“Derek Stevens, owner of The D and Golden Gate in downtown Las Vegas, has easily been Vegas’ biggest cheerleader and ambassador in getting the engine chugging again. ‘It’s been a long time,’ Stevens said just before his properties’ midnight reopening, followed a few hours later by the Circa Sports books located within. ‘This has been a great week, seeing everybody coming back to work. We’re fired up and ready to go.’“
“‘I could see the horse potentially floating back up,’ said Paul Zilm, risk supervisor at Circa Sports. ‘Will we see 55-1 again? Probably not. You might see him at 30-1 or a little bit higher. Or you might see him drop if we see a superstar effort first time out.’“
“The winner of the Florida Derby, Tiz The Law ( 195) opened Friday afternoon at predictably short odds at Circa Sports, the year-old Las Vegas sportsbook that just got into the racing business last month with its first Kentucky Derby futures… ‘The other books had no influence on our odds,’ Circa Sports risk supervisor Paul Zilm said. ‘We didn’t look at anyone else until after we released ours.’“
“‘All things being equal we really feel that Tiz The Law is the favorite right now,’ said risk supervisor Paul Zilm, who writes Circa’s futures with sportsbook director Matt Metcalf. ‘The discussion for us is who’s next? We really struggled with Authentic, Honor A. P. and Maxfield. We found a lot of pros for all three of them. So we decided that if they’re all pretty even, let’s put them all in the same spot and see where the action takes it.’“
“‘I found out I must run cold because my body temperature’s been 97.8 every single time,’ said DeRosa, who cashed a $63,000 ticket on Lamar Jackson to win the 2019 NFL regular-season MVP at Circa Sports while he was in town. In total, DeRosa says he made over $300,000 on a series of bets he made on Jackson to win the MVP last year.“
“Being around horseplayers for much of his life, the outgoing Zilm knew Derby futures appealed to everyone: casual horseplayers who pay attention to the Triple Crown races and little else, and the more avid horseplayers constantly seeking big paydays for small wagers. At the same time, Metcalf and Circa Sportsbook Manager Chris Bennett — who created Circa’s encyclopedic list of Super Bowl prop bets – wanted more. They wanted to create a Derby prop nobody else had.“
“Stevens said he’s excited for the return of major American sports and wagering on it and that Circa is moving ahead with its two NFL pick contests with $4 million in prizes. With the shutdown of sports, Stevens joked he was able to cut down on his betting losses to focus on learning to use technology for conferences and meetings. Meanwhile, he said he’s excited to see major American sports return, even though German soccer, UFC and Korean baseball are filling a void for some bettors.“
If BET showed HBCU college football on Saturdays rather than a Tyler perry marathon then athletes would start choosing more of them! Power 5 schools bring exposure because they are on NBC, ABC, ESPN, CBS, SEC NETWORK, etc. Let’s change some things! @BET

From NFL Now: The #Panthers have offered a pro scouting job to retired LB Luke Kuechly, and it appears he'll likely take it. Bet he'll be pretty good at it, too. pic.twitter.com/vn7WyR6j7G
