Let's be honest, nothing feels better than profiting and looking like a prophet after your bet holds up. So each day me and the guys on my staff will compile the day's best lines and the day's biggest trap line (If there is one). For you youngsters, the trap line is like the hot transvestite -- she's perfect and awing until you find out she's a man. It's the line that looks like easy money, the line that is probably too good to be true.
Our goal is to help you spot this sucker bet before you tell your friends and relatives to bet the bank on it.
We also hope you enjoy our Friendly Side Bet picks. These lines are strictly fictitious and set by us. Odds are you won't find Vegas offering these spreads.

Today's Picks 1/30/09
It's Friday which means there aren't any college basketball to bet on unless you're an alumni of Cornell and you know their players throw games. The NBA let's the officials do this in the post season, and because the playoffs are still months away I'm mildly confident in a couple of games tonight.
$$$ I like the Cav's giving the giant 15 1/2 points at home against the Clippers. Giving over 15 is never a good thing unless the Circus Clippers are in town. The Cav's are coming off a loss to the Magic and will be looking to beat up an already hideous Chris Kaman Clipper squad.
Friendly Side Bet -- The over/under for how many children cry while Kaman signs pregame autographs is 9. Over/under for how many children he consumes is 3.
$$$ I also like the Kings in a pick em at home against Chicago. Yes the Kings have lost five straight but (I hate to say this) they are due for a win. They are coming off a respectable 9 point loss at Boston after losing by just 7 at Cleveland. And in two of their previous three home games they lost by a combined 5 points. Parlay that with a dismal Bulls squad I predict the Kings to win easily.
