Default Uh Oh!!!

Over the years, television coverage of the Travers has been affected by everything from women's golf to the Little League World Series. But this year, we are at the mercy of a brand new sport: High School Football. Yes, there is a weather delay in the game between Booker T. Washington H.S. (Florida) and Summerville (SC). The game won't restart until 3:15 EDT, and there is still over 6:00 to play in the 3rd quarter.

This could be a problem.

I say its 30/1 they stay with the game. Surely they'll pull it for the ponies.

This is a big day and certainly they have to know that.

I would load up on that 30/1 action.

Yeah, if you are seriously taking 30-1, let me know.

Heck, I'll take 10-1.

Default We Are Safe!!!

They just announced the football game is moving to ESPNU at 4pm.

This might be a first for ESPN.

Anyone still want to bet? Sad to say one of the better picks of the day.
