Whether you’re an NFL fan or not, there’s no doubt that you’ve probably heard of some of the most iconic names in the league. Whether it’s the Dallas Cowboys, the Tennessee Giants or the New England Patriots, these are all iconic names in the NFL that you’ll likely have heard at some point in your life. But where exactly did these teams get those names? Let’s dive into the history of some of the most iconic NFL team names in history.
6 Reasons to Love Burnley F.C.
It’s so easy to get caught up in the weird and wonderful world of English Premier League football. Sides like Manchester United and Chelsea are virtually in the news every day, and they are world-famous football teams as a result of the constant media spotlight.
But, many other teams have a lot to offer their fans and the football world in general. They’re just perhaps not as well-publicised as those that are consistently at the top of the Premier League. Burnley F.C. is one such example.
In case you didn’t know, Burnley F.C. is a football team that hails from the Lancashire town bearing its name. They got founded 138 years ago, and their home ground is Turf Moor, renown for being the second-longest ground continuously in use in English football.
Super Bowl 55 – Betting Picks Against Spread & Prop Bets
Super Bowl 55 is this Sunday and it’s a prop bets smorgasbord.
I LOVE prop bets. I actually get more joy out of betting Super Bowl prop bets than betting against the spread. Yes, most are a crap shoot, but with the right research, you can end up winning bets with very favorable odds.
I’m not saying you can research who will win the coin toss, but there are many other player and team prop bets out there that have nice odds.
Some prop bets aren’t worth the money (the juice isn’t worth the slight risk), but sometimes you just have to lay a few bucks down, cross your fingers and wish for the best.
I picked out some of the most popular prop bets for Super Bowl 55 (or Super Bowl LV for Roman numeral fans)…and we also pick the game against the spread.
New UK Gambling Laws From October 2021
A new gambling bill is set to be unveiled in the UK. But it seems like it’s all bad news with this one. What is the situation with gambling legislation? The government is taking a close look at UK gambling laws to see if they can be tightened and even pushed towards the American model.
The UK government have introduced a myriad of new laws that will revolutionize the entire online gambling sector, but it is unclear if they will be enacted. However, the law will presumably force companies operating in the regulated market to adapt their operations to offer more transparency and better customer support. What’s set not to change, though is the use of free bet offers to entice new customers and other welcome offers are staying in place for now anyway.
2021 NFL Conference Championship – Betting Picks Against Spread
These are the most-competitive NFL Conference Championship games in a long, long time.
Even though both point spreads are just a field goal, they will be very different games. The Bucs vs Packers game will pit two Super Bowl-winning, veteran quarterbacks against each other. The Bills vs Chiefs game have two young quarterbacks that could meet each other in the postseason many times this decade.
Will Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes recover from last week’s concussion and play against the Bills?
Can Bucs QB Tom Brady cover against the Packers and earn another Super Bowl appearance?
What You Want Out Of A Good Casino
If you have a little cash to spend and you’re feeling particularly lucky, then what better way to cut loose with a few friends than to hit it up at a big, bright, and beautiful casino? However, if you’ve been burned before, then you will know that not all establishments are exactly the same. Here, we’re going to look at how to make sure you choose a place that’s going to be fun, safe, and, above all else, fair.
Choose one with games that you enjoy
If you’re a newbie player, then you might not have much in the way of opinions when it comes to games. Take a look at some of the casino game options that are out there, from slots to blackjack to roulette and so on. Make sure that the casino you’re visiting has those games in the variety and quality that you like so that you’re at least not bored by playing games that don’t do anything for you.
2021 NFL Divisional Playoff Games – Betting Picks Against Spread
I went 6-5-1 against the spread and with over/under point totals last week.
We are back to a four-game playoff schedule this week. It’s unfortunate that we won’t have an extra game on Nickelodeon this week. I really enjoyed their presentation of the Bears/Saints game on Sunday.
The Packers and Chiefs will be fresh this week since they benefitted from the revised playoff schedule this season. They were the only two teams in the NFL that had a first-round bye this year.
There is a lot of experience at quarterback in this year’s divisional round, but we do have some young quarterbacks like Baker Mayfield, Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, who were still playing in college just a couple years ago.
Can Drew Brees cover against Tom Brady this week?
Things to Look Forward to This Year
2020 was a difficult year for many of us. The coronavirus and Covid-19 pandemic was something that very few people saw coming and it has changed the majority of lives, often for the worse, as it has spread around the world. Adapting to life around the virus has meant many day to day changes in a bid to slow its spread. Right now, many of us are working from home on a remote basis, as opposed to working in an office space. Many companies are unable to work this way and are collapsing. This means that many people are being made redundant, losing their jobs, having to work the same hours for lower salaries or having to work fewer hours for lower salaries. This means a huge impact on the economy and further struggle and financial impact. On top of this, many of us are unable to spend time with the ones we love, as we adhere to social isolation and social distancing measures. It’s all been pretty tough and we haven’t overcome the virus yet, so it seems that things will continue this way for a little while longer. But it is important to be positive. Here are a few things that you can look forward to in the upcoming year!
Making The Most Of Lockdowns And What You Could Do With Your Time
When it comes to the current pandemic, many of us are staying at home and enjoying those comforts we have longed to have time for in the past. Remember saying, “if only we could stay home so I had time to do x,y,z?” Well now most of us have that time, but are you making the most of it? It might be time to readdress how you are using this time and making it more productive and worthwhile. We all need rest and relaxation however it could be worth it to utilize the time a little better. With that in mind, here are some of the things that you could try.

Can You Take Action If You Get Hurt On The Pitch?
Professional sports players are well-known for getting injured quite a bit. While they are at the top of their field, players in some of the most popular sports will always be at high risk of being injured. For some, this can be life-changing, with seemingly small injuries ending careers, and this can be very hard to cope with. Of course, though, what happens to normal people if they get hurt while playing sports? Whether playing with friends, in a competition, or in any other setting, you can always take action if this sort of thing occurs during your games.
Talk To The Ref/Players
Most of the world’s most popular sports have rules in place for when players get injured. In soccer, for example, a player will usually receive a yellow card if they cause an injury by accident, giving them one more chance before being sent off. If they cause an injury purposefully or because they were reckless, though, they could receive a red card, meaning that they have to sit the rest of the game out. You can always talk to the referee when you are playing, making sure that they know what you think about an injury or other occurrence like this.
2021 NFL Wild Card Playoff Games – Betting Picks Against Spread
I finished the year 141-108-6 against the spread during the NFL regular season.
We have two extra playoff games this year due to the added playoff spots due to some rule changes in this unique season…we will even have a game on Nickelodeon (Bears at Saints), which itself is odd and unique.
There are only two games that have point spreads larger than a touchdown. That’s usually what happens Wild Card Weekend.
Can the Washington Football Team keep it close against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?
We pick every NFL Wild Card Weekend game against the spread.
2020 NFL Week 17 – Betting Picks Against Spread
I went 8-8 against the spread last week.
I would have been above .500 last week, but Washington decided to hold off QB Alex Smith for another week. I wouldn’t have laid a single penny on Dwayne Haskins if I had known he was getting the start last week.
There are a lot of different potential playoff scenarios this week. I tried to mention every single option to give you an idea which teams have something left to play for in Week 17.
Can the Steelers backups keep it close the Browns?
We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 17 of the 2020 NFL season.
