Sounds
like a really bad porn flick....or a really good one depending on how
you look at things. But A-Rod, tales of A-Rod's fondness of she-males,
and 2008 US Presidential candidate Ron Paul were the most popular reads
Thursday at Gambling911.com.
This
fact is all the more telling when considering that Gambling911 has
enjoyed the most traffic ever this week in its near seven years on the
Web.
"His
(Ron Paul's) popularity has everyone here at Gambling911.com completely
stumped," explains Senior Editor Payton O'Brien. "I think his
supporters will be happy to know that gambling sites have proven strong
indicators of political candidates performances in the past."
Ron Paul's betting odds remained steady at 15 to 1 heading into Friday at
Sportsbook.com.
"We
are getting indications that Sportsbook.com will slash odds on Ron Paul
further in the coming days," disclosed Carrie Stroup, Political Analyst
for the Gambling911.com website, who has been working closely with the
folks from Sportsbook.com to gather the most updated political betting
odds available.

It
is A-Rod that has everyone else talking. This morning, you would be
hard pressed to find anyone on a New York City subway car not reading
either the New York Post or Daily News to learn all the latest
salacious details of
A-Rod's romping around town with blonde strippers.
Being
that the Post broke the story and became a headline in and of itself on
Wednesday, don't think for a moment that the New York Daily News is
going to be outdone.
Is A-Rod drowning or soaking in all this - some might say - great press? Our own
Sparky Collins says nothing wrong with being attracted to she-males.
"It's
certainly a refreshing revelation," he/she said. "We can only guess
that one or more of these she-males will come forward to discuss all
the steamy details of A-Rod and maybe even other players on my favorite
team, The Jankees."
A-Rod
- fortunately for us - also has one hot wife. It appears by the Daily
News account that she may be leaving him. She was at least spotted
leaving their apartment with suitcases in hand.
Cynthia Rodriguez a Free Agent? The piece we ran about her on Wednesday garnered the second largest number of reads on Thursday.
Not
surprisingly, a number of Gambling911.com classics related to athletes
wives - many of which were authored by our own Jenny Woo - have made a
sudden resurgence in the past two days.
"
Hottest Athletes Wives
was one of my favorites and I am so thrilled to see it was the third
biggest read here at Gambling911.com," a thrilled Woo reports from her
Miami Beach home.
Woo has amassed a huge readership base of her own. She is known for her writing prowess and will be reporting from
CAP Spring Break Bahamas the end of next week.

Speaking of BetUS.com, the online gambling firm really had a banner betting weekend with
UFC 71 betting, The Indy 500, but even more so -
The Miss Universe Pageant 2007.
They were one of the few online gambling companies to offer betting on
the pageant. Gambling911.com experienced massive traffic for Miss
Universe throughout the weekend and well into mid-week. Though
dwindling,
The Miss Universe controversy continued to enjoy exceptional readership throughout Thursday.
