Not out of the Woods yet; Can Tiger Mount a Comeback?
If you were an offshore bookmaker, would you make him an odds-on favorite, or would you best prop would be that he doesn’t throw his back out during a tournament? Most sportsbooks seem to be leaning toward the latter. LL Cool J said “don’t call it a comeback;” Tiger has not only called it a comeback, but has called it that twice. He was slated to return to competition in October’s Safeway Open, but he pulled out three days after committing to play. Tiger Woods is now scheduled to appear at the Tiger Woods-hosted Hero World Challenge in December, which is a benefit for the Tiger Woods Foundation.
Is Rob Gronkowski on his out of the NE Patriots or not?
Make your bets. Literally. That’s what online wagering and sportsbooks are for. Is New England Patriots tight end Rob ‘Gronk’ Gronkowski o his last legs? Is he on his way out of the only professional team he has called home? Is his career over? Is his style of play too risky for his own good? Depends on who you ask. If you were to ask retired Baltimore Ravens/New York Jets linebacker Bart Scott – who is no stranger to controversy –, you can just go right ahead and stick a fork in Gronkowski because he’s done.
Treble the pleasure, treble the fun with the Westbrook
Here is something else that Russell Westbrook is better at than Kevin Durant – or anyone else since the 1961-62 season, for that matter. The Oklahoma City Thunder is currently averaging a triple-double (30.9 points, 10.3 rebounds and 11.3 assists), the first NBA player to do so since some guy called Oscar Robertson – offshore betting fans may have heard about him.

Conor McGregor: Don’t Make Me Take My Other Belt Off
Online betting fans know that UFC fights often tend to be a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it affair – like when Conor McGregor knocked the living daylights out of Jose Aldo in 13 seconds – but the company seems to be taking a page out of WWE’s book and getting the F out – the F stands for fighting, of course. Could the day when UFC becomes UEC (Ultimate Entertainment Championship) be too far off? Probably, but just handing out title belts without actually there being a fight first is definitely a miscarriage of justice the like of which has not been seen since the Finger Poke of Doom. Like, it would have been a different story if McGregor has lost his smile, but we figure he could not wipe that grin off his face even if he wanted to.
