women who would win. I just had to look at it realistically, she said

Just when you were about to panic because you realized youre stuck in New England with no way of getting to the Olympics and no idea where you are going to watch all the glorious gymnastics in Rio -- I know you were panicking -- ?Nastia Liukin came to the rescue.No, seriously. The retired gymnast and 2008 Olympic all-around champion posted her luxury Boston apartment on Airbnb for rent while shes away in Rio doing Nastia Liukin things. Because what better place to watch Simone Biles, Gabby Douglas and the girls do work than in the beautiful apartment of a former Team USA star??It really couldnt get much better ... well, unless she agreed to let the renter(s) rock her Olympic medals for the duration of their stay. Can we find out if thats included??But before you get too excited and start texting your friends about your plans to move in to your pal Nastias, you should know its going to cost you. The ad on Airbnbs website specifies a four-night minimum stay at a rate of $1,250 a night. Yikes.?While I was originally slightly taken aback by the asking price of her offer (I mean the view cant be THAT nice) I then read a little further down in the detailed description, where it clearly states that all proceeds are going to benefit a charity the gymnastics star is passionate about. Yes, rather than pocketing the cash, the money will go to the Corey Griffin Foundation, which provides healthcare and education solutions to families in need.?Between the good cause and the movie room access, this sort of seems like a no-brainer.?Check out the full listing and pictures of her home HERE.?See something on social media that you think deserves to be shared? Let me know on Twitter @Tory_Barron. Jaromir Jagr Jersey . A big centre with all the tools to be an elite player, Johansen paced the Blue Jackets with a standout game Saturday night. He had a goal and two assists for a career-high three points as Columbus beat the New York Islanders 5-2 to snap a five-game losing streak. Radek Faksa Jersey . But when it comes to determining if Raymond will find a place on the Leafs roster when training camp concludes in a week, well, that decision will ultimately fall to the head coach. http://www.thedallasstarshockey.com/anton-khudobin-hockey-jersey/ .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- The odds are good the U.S. will win the gold medal count once again in the Olympics.The odds are even better this year that there will be some money bet on it.Bookmakers in Las Vegas are making the U.S. the favorite to defend the gold medal crown from the London Olympics, with an over/under of 43.5 gold medals for the Americans. China is the only other country close to the U.S., with bookies putting that countrys gold medal line at 36.Its the first time since the 2000 Olympics in Sydney that bettors in Nevada have been able to put money on the games. So far, they havent exactly caught Olympic fever.Weve probably had 10 people come to the counter to bet it, said Jimmy Vaccaro, who sets odds at the South Point hotel sports book.Bookies who can usually pick the spread for an NFL game within a point or two off the top of their head have had to educate themselves on some unfamiliar sports that in any other year would not even attract the attention of bettors looking to make a score.Its easy enough to make Michael Phelps a favorite in most of his races, and for Usain Bolt to add three more golds to his growing collection. Not terribly difficult to pick the home country, Brazil, in both mens and womens volleyball, either.But making a line on things like Hyvin Jepkemoi of Kenya to win the 3,000-meter steeplechase (shes an even money favorite) is a little tougher. So is figuring out that Germanys Thomas Rohler should be a 5-4 favorite in the javelin.And with real money at stake, there is little room for error.If you put up something thats a weak line or make a mistake the sophisticated guys will be all over it, said Johnny Avello, who runs the sports book at the Wynn. They turn into good bettors if you have something wrong.Its pretty much a foregone concluusion the U.ddddddddddddS. mens and womens basketball teams will romp their way to gold. The U.S. women are so dominant that they are a staggering 57.5 point favorite to beat Senegal in their opening game, and you would have to wager $200 to win just $10 if you like either team to win the gold.Just as dominant is American gymnast Simone Biles, who could be the biggest star of the Rio Games. Biles is a 2-1 favorite to win the balance beam and the floor exercises, a co-favorite along with North Koreas Hong Un Jong to win the vault, and a big favorite to win the all around.She and her teammates are also whopping 22-1 picks to bring home the womens team gold.Since most sports rarely appear on an oddsmakers radar, they wont risk the house by taking huge bets. Avello said he would take a couple of dimes ($2,000) on most bets, while most books limit bets to half that.Betting on the Olympics is nothing new. Betting parlors in Britain did good business four years ago for the London Olympics, and have posted odds for years on both big and obscure events at the games.But bettors in the U.S. have been shutout since the 2000 Olympics because of an agreement Nevada gaming authorities made not to offer betting on amateur sports. The prohibition was lifted in Nevada last year, though, and bookies were quick to post odds.So far, though, the action has been minimal, mostly what Kornegay calls grocery store bets of $10 and $20.If America gets into the hype of the coverage maybe it will be more, he said. But I think people watch the Olympics more than they bet them. If Serbia plays Croatia in volleyball or something like that I dont think well get any bets. ' ' '
