Battle of the Titans: Is There More Drama for the Belmont Stakes?

3 weeks ago | igamingplayer.com | Brian Robin

This is not only the rematch we needed, it’s the rematch America wanted. It’s the rematch every racing fan anticipated since the first Saturday in May. You remember the first Saturday in May? When Journalism was less than a furlong away from winning the Kentucky Derby, only to have Sovereignty come from 16th place and sweep by him, as classic closers are wont to do, and win the Derby by 1 ½ lengths in the final sixteenth.
Cal State Fullerton players, teams make their marks, promise even more

Ava Arce spent much of the spring imposing her brutish will on what was a conga line of overmatched pitchers sprinkled around the Big West Conference. Kathryn Hosch spent much of her spring imposing her understated, but firm, will on a group of talented, but largely untested golfers.

We have another no-brainer–and familiar–favorite for Saturday’s 150th Preakness Stakes from Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore. But whether you want to write 8-5 favorite Journalism into your wagers or look elsewhere, we have other free Preakness Stakes picks and predictions to help you make those winning wagers.

No Derby Winner Shakes Up Preakness Stakes: Why It Matters

1 month ago | igamingplayer.com | Brian Robin

There were two earth-shaking events that affected the field in general and the race dynamics in particular for the 150th Preakness Stakes, which sends its nine contenders to post around 4 p.m. PT Saturday from Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore. The first came on May 6, when Bill Mott, the trainer for Kentucky Derby champion Sovereignty, announced his charge wouldn’t charge from the Pimlico gates. Instead, Mott pointed Sovereignty to the June 7 Belmont Stakes.
Cal State Fullerton’s Zermeno Smith leans into pressure to capture Big West golf

1 month ago | ocregister.com | Brian Robin

It was almost unfair. At the same time, it was a fair example of Kaitlyn Zermeno Smith’s ability to own the moment — whatever and wherever the moment. During the second round of the Big West Women’s Golf Championships, Zermeno Smith was standing behind a tree, lining up her second shot on the 18th hole at Spanish Trail Country Club in Las Vegas. CSUF golf coach Kathryn Hosch went up to her to discuss her options. Zermeno Smith wasn’t in the mood for discussion.
Run For The Roses: Will the Favorite Prevail at the Kentucky Derby?

1 month ago | igamingplayer.com | Brian Robin

There are several eternal truths that are inescapable when you’re faced with handicapping a 20-horse Kentucky Derby: that it isn’t easy to win one of these, that luck plays as big a part in skill and that anything can—and often does—happen to torpedo even the best-laid handicapping plans. The biggest eternal truth? Because of all of the above, often the best horse doesn’t always win. We’ve seen this for the last six years.
Cal State Fullerton’s Drotter plans a back-to-basics approach to ‘right the ship’

Mar 13, 2025 | ocregister.com | Brian Robin

As Jason Drotter saw it, he had no other choice but to literally call in the troops. Not that the drive west on Interstate 10 out of Palm Desert is ever brimming with scenic excitement. But even if there was more to see than windmills, dinosaurs or the Cabazon Outlet Mall, none of that would purge the images Drotter couldn’t shake from his rattled mind from the previous three days. Images of the Cal State Fullerton men’s golf team’s season imploding before his very eyes.
Unveiling the Best Bets and Predictions for Premier League Weekend Matchups

Feb 14, 2025 | igamingplayer.com | Brian Robin

The Premier League is full of surprises this year, with perennial champion Manchester City struggling and perennial mid-table occupant Bournemouth surging. We’ve noticed both trends, which guide two of our Premier League picks this week. This is one of those weeks where the matchups, the form, and the stats write themselves. Struggling teams play in-form teams. Defensive atrocities play offensive juggernauts.
Cal State Fullerton’s goal: ‘Playing fundamental, hard-nosed baseball’

Feb 12, 2025 | ocregister.com | Brian Robin

There is a grim determination permeating Jason Dietrich’s voice, one mixed with equal parts frustration and resolve to solve a puzzle. A puzzle that has teased and taunted him for two of his three seasons holding the keys to the Cal State Fullerton flagship athletic program. Honestly, it was not supposed to be this difficult. Not for a talented coach known for his recruiting wizardry, his ability to take raw pitchers and make them draft-worthy and his skill forging a winning culture.
Elevate Your Super Bowl 59 Experience with These Exciting Prop Bets

Feb 7, 2025 | igamingplayer.com | Brian Robin

One of my favorite ways to get into the Super Bowl vibe is to clock the National Anthem. Yes, there’s a bet on how long the designated singer—in this case, Grammy Award-winning, New Orleans native Jon Batiste—will take to hit the final note of “…Home of the Brave.”And yes, BetMGM has you covered here. The Over/Under on Batiste’s rendition is 120.5 seconds, a tick over two minutes.
