From GamblersTelevision.com Pro Football Thanksgiving Arizona Cardinals at Philadelphia Eagles (-3) (8 ET) (NFL Network) The NFL is a bounce back league and it has always been. Betting on good teams when they are down offers tremendous line value. The Eagles have struggled no doubt but they have a good balance of veterans and young players. Donovan McNabb was benched last week and the effects will be felt in this game. The entire team, fans and coaching staff will rally behind their starter and give an A+ performance. Arizona is off a short week and must make that horrible west coast to east coast trip on Wednesday for this game on Thanksgiving. Thats not enough time to prep for this Eagles team after playing a physical contest with the NY Giants the week before. This is another one of my feel plays. No stats here just a situational play that will win. Take Philadelphia 3. Selection: Philadelphia -3

From GamblersTelevision.com Best Bet Major League Baseball Game 2 Thursday LA Dodgers (Billingsley) (+150) at Chicago Cubs (Zambrano) (-160) (9 ET) (TBS) Carlos Zambrano has struggled a bit down the stretch and there are some concerns about his shoulder. He has gotten pounded in his last 2 starts giving up 13 earned runs in his last 2 starts working just 6 1/3 innings. His walk totals have been way up giving up 24 bases on balls over his last 7 starts. Against a Joe Torre lineup where he preaches working the pitchers this could prove very costly. Billingsley has pitched well for LA giving up 3 earned runs or less in 9 of his last 10 starts. I am on the underdog bringing the 92-95 mile per hour heat here Billingsley over Zambrano who shoulder doesnt appear 100%. Never bet on a pitcher with arm problems. I am taking LA as underdogs behind their best pitchers in the first two games. Please note that even if I split and go 1-1 I still come out ahead + ½ unit. Your Best Bet for Thursday Major League Baseball is playing the LA Dodgers at +150 against the Chicago Cubs. Selection: LA Dodgers +150

From GamblersTelevision.com Pro Football Oakland Raiders at Buffalo Bills (-9) (1PM ET) (CBS) The Raiders face a tough back-to-back road situation at Buffalo, which is a very difficult stadium for visiting teams. The Raiders leaned on their running game last week beating a very bad Kansas City team. The Chiefs have no vertical threat in their receiving corps and are easy to defend but the Bills have playmakers in the passing game as well a very good running game. Buffalo in my opinion will be a playoff team. The Bills stuffed the run last week against the talented Jacksonville Jaguars running game and the Raiders enter this game with Justin Fargas with an injured groin and Darren McFadden nursing a turf toe. JaMarcus Russell has struggled and was just 6-17 for 55 yards at Kansas City. The Bills will stack the line and force Russell into making plays. Bad scenario here for the Raiders. Buffalo big. Take Buffalo at 9. Selection Buffalo Bills 9
