It’s a long offseason but don’t worry football bettors, minicamps will start soon–if they haven’t started for some teams already–and you can now wager on win totals for NFL teams.

The Over/Under for the defending champion New York Giants is 8.5.

Two things have become quite apparent about the Boston Celtics during the 2008 playoffs–they can’t win on the road and rarely go Over the Total.

Boston has gone Under in three straight games and has been on the low side of the Total in eight out of the last 10 home games.

Tonight’s Cavs-Celtics Total is set at 176.

It will be the battle of the bottom dwellers in the AL West when the Seattle Mariners take on the Texas Rangers today.

Kason Gabbard will go for the home side Rangers and Felix Hernandez for the Mariners.

In King Felix’s last 10 starts, Seattle has gone Under eight times, including five straight in Hernandez’s last five starts.

Tonight’s Total is set at 9.5.

If you follow betting trends, the Under might be the way to go in the series opener between the New York Yankees and the Tampa Bay Rays.

The Under has been the winning side on the Total in five out of the last seven between the two.

Andy Pettitte starts for the Yankees tonight and New York has an Under record of 7-0-1 the last eight times Pettitte has taken the mound.

Tonight’s Total is set at 9.

The Boston Red Sox travel to the Twin Cities area to begin a set vs. the Minnesota Twins tonight and if you like betting on the Total, you might want to go low.

Dating back to September 21 of 2006, the BoSox and Twinkies have gone 7-1 on the Under.

The Total for tonight’s opener is set at 9.

Having gone Over in seven out of their last 10 matchups, the Detroit Pistons and Orlando Magic look to bust the Total for the eighth time.

The Total in tonight’s matchup is set at 187.

With the surprising Tampa Bay Rays about to start a three game set with the Toronto Blue Jays here is an interesting stat; the two have gone Under the posted Total 12 out of the last 14 times.

Tonight’s Total is set at 8.

Dating back to May of last year, the Boston Red Sox and Detroit Tigers have gone below the Total seven out of the last 10.

Tonight’s Over/Under is set at 9 with Daisuke Matsuzaka taking the mound for the BoSox and Jeremy Bonderman going for the Tigers.

Here’s an interesting trend for the Cleveland Cavaliers-Washington Wizards playoff series.

In the last eight games between the two, the Over and Under have alternated on the Total, which has never been set lower than 187.5.

Fittingly enough, tonight’s Total is set at 187.5 and last game went Under, should you bet on the Over?

After going below the Total throughout 2007/08, the Atlanta Hawks and Boston Celtics have gone Over in two straight games however, the two have yet to go Over in Beantown.

Tonight’s Total is set at 187.5.
