“And down the stretch they come!”
“Raiding the Rock Vault leads by a length and a half, Voice of Entertainment is a strong second, and here comes Comedy Hypnosis on the outside.”
That’s how the Chase for the Golden Nerf would sound if it were a horse race.
With four weekends remaining, Andrew Freeman, who starts in the rock show at LVH, is looking like a top thoroughbred with his 23-16 mark versus the spread. Mirage headliner Terry Fator, who led at the quarterpole and for most of the race, is second at 27-17-1 and Planet Hollywood
Be sure to hold your tickets, folks – there’s sure to be plenty of jockeying between now and the finish line.
Sal DeFilippo’s picks (17-21-1):
Seahawks +3 at 49ers
Raiders +3 at Jets
