Thursday.....

Tonight's NHL winner, once again courtesy of Dream, is the Flyers -130 over Toronto. There are several significant trends that favor the Flyers in this matchup. For starters, the Flyers have won four in a row and are 7-0 in their last seven games against teams with a losing record. In addition the Flyers are 5-1 in their last six games as a favorite. Despite only being 23-19-3 on the season, the Flyers have a winning record on the road this year. Furthermore you have a young Toronto team that is 1-4 in their last five games and have a losing record at home this season.
Another good day for the Mets. It was announced "much to the Mets surprise", that often injured outfielder Carlos Beltran had knee surgery yesterday. As a result Beltran will miss at least the first month of the season. This probably means he will join the team sometime in early July with the Mets twenty games out of first. On a less serious note, Jose Canseco is at odds with Mark McGwire over "allegedly" sticking him in the ass with steriods. McGwire has vehemently denied all claims that Canseco injected him with steriods in the buttocks over a few year period in Oakland. Luckily Canseco has no photographic proof of this practice. My guess is McGwire cried immediately after receiving the aforementioned injections.
