Interesting factoids are continually coming across the Internet.  This morning my custom news feeds were bombarded with stories about Coca-Cola.  This is usually not my cup of tea but when terms like rum and millionaires are the subject matter then my ears perk up.  In this edition of Americas Bookie’s The Brink, we will pass these notes along as they help us focus on a subject we lose sight of.  Besides this, let us get back into the profit flow with the CFL Pick of the Day.

Rum and Coke More Expensive When…?

Off in Jamaica and other major rum producing Caribbean countries, Coca Cola is more expensive than the native rum.  So when ordering, the stronger drink is cheaper than a single.  So a single of rum and coke costs more than one that is a triple rum and coke.  It is truly about price and the market that you are in.

CFL Game of the Week : West Strikes Back

Edmonton showed the league that in Week Three that the West is back.  Well at least in the aspect of the east team traveling to the other side of Canada.  Montreal (1-1) owned the shocker of Week Two with a demolition of Calgary on their home turf.  Now they go to Winnipeg (1-1).  The Blue Bombers are a challenge because they lack consistency.  Their backup is horrid but Drew Willy is expected to start.  With Montreal 2-5 ATS in their last seven on the road, Winnipeg at -3 is the wager we seek for our CFL Free Pick of the Week.

So raise our glass to each and every country that produces a quality drink where the alcohol component is cheaper than the other flavors.  The Brink will be on our CFL play of the Week at America’s Bookie.  Stay tuned to the Cardinals and Pirates and we will see you tomorrow here at The Brink.
