Happy New Year! Today, I’m back from my holiday break in Las Vegas where I rang in the new year with Coldplay, Jay-Z and crew, and I’m ready to talk all things sports! In the NFL, big news as the Cleveland Browns have sacked Eric Mangini, former head coach. Other interesting NFL news is that the Seattle Seahawks, NFC west division champions, will make it to the playoffs with a less than 500 season. Some may feel this is unfair, but to me, those are just the rules of the game. The Seahawks will be faced up against the New Orleans Saints who are favored to win, but given Seattle’s success at home and their home field advantage, I would not be surprised if they were able to take it. Also in NFL, Brett Favre’s character marked again with more text message troubles. This time from former New York Jets masseuses who claim he behaved inappropriately once again. In the NBA, the Los Angeles Lakers are not looking so good, while the Miami Heat are charging along winning 18 of their last 19 games. Both Lebron James and Dwayne Wade are playing strong and leading their team through an incredible season. And in the NHL, the Pittsburgh Penguins took on the Washington Capitals on New Year’s Day in an annual outdoor game. The game was postponed from it’s afternoon time slot at 1pm to 8pm due to weather, but the dark proved to be a spectacular setting as it was the highest rated hockey game in 36 years! All this and more!

7- Bodemeister (8-5)
8- Daddy Nose Best (12-1)
11- Cozzetti (30-1)
9- I’ll Have Another (5-2)
I think Bodemeister is clearly the most talented horse in the field and I expect another huge performance. I think Mike Smith will have a much better effort on him and keep him under control. I am going with the Derby “wise guy” horse Daddy Nose Best for second. I don’t think he ever got a good chance to run in the Derby and think he will run a strong race in the much smaller field at Pimlico. Cozzetti is the “new shooter” that I am looking to hit the board and juice up the exotics. I like looking at the head-to-head matchups that the sportsbooks make. Cozzetti is favored in in his two matchups. I think I’ll Have Another will run a strong race but come up just short of hitting the board.
