Legal Gambling on Penn
So it appears to me that we're all about the gambling here at the DP these days, but I thought I'd throw this in anyways.
For those unaware, ESPN.com has had an ongoing game for a while called Streak for the Cash. The rules change every so often, but the premise is fairly simple: they place a number of games/props for you to choose from, you pick one at a time and try and string together as long a streak of correct picks as you can. Under the current rules, the winner at the end of each month wins $100,000. It's completely free, so is a nice way for risk-averse people like myself to get a bit of a sports gambling fix and it's also very difficult.
As you can see on today's Streak page, one of the games to pick today is Penn-Dartmouth, I suppose it makes some sense, as the game is expected to be a close one, and thus a tough one to pick. Dartmouth, favored by 2 over the Quakers, has been picked by 87.2% of people as of this post, so the masses clearly are going with the 4-14 Big Green over the 2-14 Quakers. What do you think, loyal Buzz readers, should I wager by 5-pick Streak on this game? Let me know in the comments below.
On another note, tonight's matchup features two interim head coaches facing off against each other; I wonder when the last time that happened was?
See you in a few hours, when I'll be liveblogging the game from frigid Hanover, NH.
