This a slam dunk every year.If its an R&B artist bet the over. They usually destroy the song showing us all there screaming range. No doubt it will go over.

3. TouchDown scored by any defensive play +1.75 LOSER
4. First score NOT a TD +1.25 LOSER
5. Flacco throws a TD in the first 1/4 +2.50 *** BINGO ***
6. BLT wins by exactly 3 points +9.25 *** HUGE BINGO! ***

And my all-time favorite that I bet every year and have won a fortune on:

7. Either teams wins by exactly 17 points + 19.00 LOSER



So if you bet a cheapass $17 on each prop suggested by my tout agency you would have grossed about $227 for a net win of $107.17 thanks mostly to the exactly 3 point Baltimore win and Flacoo's first quarter TD pass.

Was Alicia Keys' national anthem the longest in history?
Chris Chase, USA TODAY Sports7:50p.m. EST February 3, 2013

Depending on your tastes, Alicia Keys' rendition of the national anthem at Super Bowl XLVII was either a majestic display of musical talent or a bit pitchy. But the one thing on which your living room could universally agree was that Keys stretched out her Star-Spangled Banner for so long, you'd have thought she added one of the other three verses to Francis Scott Key's lyrics.

How long was Keys' version of Keys? It was record setting.

According to noted anthem expert David Barron, this version clocked in at 156.4 seconds. That beats the previous length record at the Super Bowl, which was held by Natalie Cole's 152-second performance in 1994.
