Hey Guys - I just wanted to thank all of those who contribute to this forum, especially Mak, pucku27, allyjm, ValueforRent and ParlayKapper to name a few who helped me win enough $money$ this past month to pay for another party trip to Rio de Janeiro. While I’m still a Capper in training, I’m impressed by the collective skills of the Covers resident Cappers. Covers/Wagerline is the best on the net! I’ve known about this site for years but I just recently became an active member. Hence, I do my best to contribute whenever possible especially when it comes to sharing local knowledge related to our local LA teams like the Lakers and that other pathetic team better known as the Clippers. I’m meeting up in Miami later today with a small travel group of single guys from different parts of the US, who all love to party, meet and mingle with some of the hottest Latin babes on this planet on the world famous beaches and night clubs in Copacabana and Ipanema. If you like traveling to exotic destinations with even more exotic women - then Brazil is the place! I go whenever I can and that is one of the coolest things about winning $money$ with the collective assistance of all those who participate in this forum is that this is basically a FREE trip for me! If you’ve never been to Brazil go to my Wagerline My Space Page and get a glimpse of what your average Brazilian Babe is like.

Peace Out 

Rio here we come

Lakers don't expect another rout over Clippers

The Lakers don't expect to thump the Clippers by 38points tonight the way they did last week. They also don't expect to toy with their Staples Center rivals after building an enormous second-half lead.

They do expect more fire from the Clippers, however.

Tonight's game against the Clippers is the only one this week for the Lakers, who began the season with three eye-catching victories last week only to find themselves back in training-camp mode come Monday morning.

This game would appear to be a light workout before three more days of practice leading into a more arduous work week starting Sunday with a home game against Houston. After that, the Lakers have road games Tuesday at Dallas and Wednesday at New Orleans, then a home date against Detroit on Nov. 14.

After all, the Clippers are 0-4, but the Rockets (3-0), Mavericks (1-2), Hornets (3-0) and Pistons (3-0) were a combined 10-2 heading into Tuesday's games.

The Clippers are trying to mesh after an offseason roster overhaul, while at the same time welcoming injured players Marcus Camby and Baron Davis into the fold.

So, as tempting as it might be, the Lakers were determined to avoid overlooking the Clippers instead of focusing their attention on next week's opponents. They said all the right things, and even sounded sincere when talking about the Clippers.

"You always expect a team to come back with a better game plan, better execution," Kobe Bryant said
