Yankees' Mussina announces retirement (AP)

Mike Mussina took a secret to the ballpark every day this season. Maybe that's why he was so successful on the mound, so jovial in the clubhouse. From Day One of spring training, he knew this was his final year -- even if it meant giving up bids for 300 wins, a World Series ring and a better shot at the Hall of Fame.

College Football Bets, Week 13

So after a very uninspiring slate of games last weekend, we should have two great weeks of football leading up to the conference championship games.

This week we begin to see many of the great annual rivalries contended, which brings me to one of my favorite maxims of betting on college football -- whenever a rivalry game features a double-digit point spread, always take the underdog. As you can tell from this list of games I haven't necessarily pulled the trigger on any of those games, but just because Michigan is getting 21 points I still can't advise taking the points. If I had to bet, I would take the points however.

Also, I've included the "epic" showdown in the Apple Cup among my best bets and as you can tell I'm not backing the underdog. Frankly, Washington giving seven points is probably my lock of the year. Washington State has not been the least bit competitive this season, which you can't say for Washington. The Huskies suck, no doubt about it, but they've played decent at times and should beat the Cougars by three touchdowns.
