Bets open on Madden cover star
Online gambling house WagerWeb is taking money on next year's cover athlete for Madden 2007.
We may only be through week 13 of the 17-week regular season of the NFL, but one online gambling site,
WagerWeb, is already looking at next year's football games. The site is taking real-money bets on who will grace the cover of next year's Madden NFL game. The odds-on favorite is Colts QB Peyton Manning, at -200 ($200 down to win $100), followed by Bengals chucker Carson Palmer (+200--$100 down to win $200) and Seahawks touchdown machine Shaun Alexander (+400--$100 down to win $400). If that weren't enough, further money can be placed on whether the 2007 cover athlete will fall victim to the Madden cover curse and miss consecutive games due to injury next season.
