St00pid Bowl LV/Corona Bowl I: 72 hours to go.

• "Mattress Mack" Jim McIngvale has struck again.  $3,460,000 bet on Tampa +3.5.  He already has a promotion that anyone spending $3,000 or more on a new mattress get their money back if Tampa wins.
• His is now the largest legal bet so far on Super Bowl LV.
• As of yesterday, William Hill reports that, in their American sportsbooks, more than 4 dollars out of every 5 on the Super Bowl point-spread is going Kansas City.
• An ESPN poll of over 105 talent has almost a 3-1 margin toward Kansas City winning the game.
• Of the 80 who pick Kansas City, three-quarters believe Patrick Mahomes will win MVP.
• Few predict a blowout, though one KC picker had them winning 48-24.
• Two of them have the fewest points for Tampa, 17.  Giving you an idea of how many people believe the game will go over the 56 1/2 total -- hint:  About 3 in 5 (66 out of 107) do.   
• Of the 27 picking Tampa:  two-thirds (18) believe TB12 will be MVP.
• None of the 27 have it outside a touchdown, most within three or four points.  All but stating they understand the script for Brady to get #7 here is a late comeback touchdown.
