Vegas has chimed in and placed odds on each team for winning the NBA title. It's no shock that the Bucks face the steepest odds at 500-1. Interestingly enough, the Bucks were given 125-1 odds during the pre-season. That should give you an idea of just how much faith Vegas has in the Heat cutting the nets down.

I have never done this before, and I have no idea what possessed me to try it, but I took a stab at predicting what I think the Green Bay Packers 2013 regular season schedule will look like. The official schedule is expected to be revealed a few days before the start of the NFL draft on April 25.
