Pick for the Indianapolis 500

David — Sun, 29 May 2011 02:23:00 +0000

It is Memorial Day weekend in the United States, and with that comes The Indy 500 which is a auto racing tradition, even though open-wheel racing has been dwarfed in popularity by stock car racing (NASCAR). It is race I rarely ever miss and I should be able to catch a lot of it after Jimin’s early round. This is a race with a lot of appeal here in Brazil with 3-time winner Helio Castroneves in the field along with 3 other Brazilians (including Ana Beatriz, one of 4 women in the field). This is another incredible international event with 12 countires from all 6 continents represented. I am going to go with an Australian in Will Power (7-1) to win the Indy 500. He is starting 5th in the 33-car field and has 2 wins out of the 4 IRL races this season and leads in points. He came in 8th last year and 5th in 2009 and is primed to add an Indy 500 win to his growing resume. He is favored in his two head-to-head matchups vs. Townsend Bell and Dan Weldon and has taken money in both.

I wanted to make a pick for the Coca-Cola 600 in NASCAR, but because the Nationwide race is run tonight, there are no listed odds or matchups at this time and because of the early tee time (8:42am Atlantic time) I won’t be able to. I’m sure smoking hot Carl Edwards will be the favorite and the Roush Fenway cars will be the ones to beat.

Today, Trevor Bayne wins NASCAR’s Daytona 500 as the youngest driver ever! The NFL collective bargaining agreement sets a deadline for Thursday to settle the dispute. I discuss what this means for next year’s season if the dispute remains unsettled. And, in the NBA All Star Game, Lebron James nearly single-handedly brought it to a close game in the second half, but Kobe Bryant proved his star power as he took the West to victory earning his 4th MVP Award. Plus, the Carmelo Anthony Saga nears an end with the New York Knicks extending their offer. Listen to today’s show to hear why I think he may be damaging his future team’s ability to make a championship team!

In NBA news, Clippers rookie Blake Griffin embarrasses the New York Knicks with 40+ points and 15+ rebounds and a huge Dunk demo over the backs of New York players.

Tiger Woods “car accident” surprises America and creates more questions than answers. The circumstances surrounding this incident is Tiger Woods’ first major controversy. In the NBA Lawrence Frank is out as coach of the 0-16 New Jersey Nets. We rundown today’s action in the NBA, with only a couple of worthwhile games on the slate. Allen Iverson has retired, but some of his former coaches and possibly an old team may lure him back. A run down of the league leaders to this point, no big surprises as the stars have risen to the top. Skin art in the NBA, is there any player who doesn’t have tats? Major League Baseball has entered in the off-season as the spending spree is about to begin. In NASCAR, Jimmie Johnson wins his unprecedented 4th consecutive Sprint Cup Championship. A question from Bruce about the 49ers, will Jeff Garcia and T.O. reunite next year in San Fran? I’m not sure where he heard that one. I think they are going ahead with Alex Smith and his young weapons. A rundown of the NFL games in action and the matchup tonight with the Pittsburgh Steelers visiting the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers will be without Ben Roethlisberger who is feeling the effects of a concussion.

A discussion about the biggest sports rivalries in the US is brought on by the Thrilla in Manila documentary and the rivalry between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. A blast from my past as we talk about Julius Hodge who is playing basketball for the Melbourne Tigers. He is playing in Australia as he tries to get a chance to return to the NBA. A discussion on the NBA action this week as the Cleveland Cavaliers have been playing good ball, Andrew Bogut is injured, the Nets are winless, the Hornets have won a couple and the Knicks pass on Allen Iverson. The NASCAR season comes to an end today, Marcos Ambrose should be very happy with the year his team had. The NFL Week 11 is underway with the New York Giants facing a near must win against the Atlanta Falcons. The pressure is on Eli Manning and his receiving corp to produce. The 2-7 Oakland Raiders take on the 7-2 Cincinnati Bengals, I give the Raiders a shot and definitely would take the 9 points. The Minnesota Vikings are threatening to leave town, they can’t leave winter is depressing enough in Minnesota.
