The old moose left a bunch of us feeling like turkeys on Thanksgiving weekend.
There was Colorado, a 10-point underdog, hitting a 54-yard touchdown pass on the final play to cover in a 28-20 loss to Nebraska.
Since none of you had Y.E Yang, and a lot of you had Tiger Woods, last Sunday was a little painful.
But Tiger’s collapse in the final round of the PGA Championship hurt no one more than Irish sportsbook Paddy Power.
Ireland’s largest sportsbook, Paddy Power is known for paying off bets early, when they deem the outcome has been decided.
There is a lone African American out there who all are turning to. The ship has gone terribly off course – especially over the past few months – and only he apparently can set it straight.
It wasn’t long ago where everyone was prospering, the banks were lined up, flush with cash to contribute their bit to the cause. Now most are all but insolvent, corporations are falling left and right and things appear to be almost hopeless.
Forget his popularity with casual or serious golf fans. Tiger Woods return to competition means more than just the game. It means money, lots of money. Just ask the PGA and TV networks for starters.
There was a rumor that Tiger would be returning this weekend in the Buick Invitational. It doesn’t look like he will which means that BetUS golf betting fans can let out a huge sigh of relief.
Throwing Tiger into the mix means that fans will have to rethink exactly how to bet some of the other terrific overlaid golfers in any field.

The most famous person in the world right now is the new American President, Barack Obama, but just a few days before Election Day, it was another young man of mixed ethnicity, Tiger Woods.
A co-inky-dink you think? Not really as it was athletes like Tiger who helped pave the way for America to get over itself and elect a visible minority to the White House.
Carl Pettersson collected his third PGA Tour win Sunday at the Wyndham Championship and that helped him jump 22 places in this week’s Official World Golf Rankings. There was little movement in the top 20.

Carl Pettersson caught fire on the back nine Sunday to win the Wyndham Championship by two shots over Scott McCarron.
Pettersson fired a closing round of two-under 68, and a final score of 21-under.
Pettersson also set new 36- and 54- hole scoring records along the way.
The big bonus for him though was winning the tournament vaulted him into the TOP 30 on the PGA tour Fed-EX cup points list.
