    heres what i think category by category:

    phelps best male athlete, no value
    serena best female athlete, candace could win, thats all... +120 is good value
    best team is a crapshoot, uconn at +900 has megavalue... i mean, they were the best "team" in their sport by far
    matt ryan for breakthrough, little value
    phelps lock for recordbreaker, no value at all
    male college has to be tebow, right? I mean blake, no he lost, and bradford lost too
    international I like bolt at +175, good value
    baseball no value on pooholes
    no way they give it to kobe over lebron, lebron -125 to the bank
    best nfl all are deserving, something tells me AP wins at +175
    nhl should be ovechkin but it'll be crosby, no value
    shaun white?
    racer i have no idea
    boxing should be pacman, but who knows

    Phelps has to be way more of a lock than -525. Seems like the free-est money ever.

    ESPY Awards: Who will win the Best NFL Player Award?
    Adrian Peterson (Vikings) +175 - -

    Kurt Warner (Cards) +200 - -
    Larry Fitzgerald (Cards) +200 - -
    Peyton Manning (Colts) +200 - -

    5 possible choices, evenly matched and the highest price is +200.

    BetED is certainly taking a healthy vig on these props.

    Aren't they the site that stiffed that guy to the tune of over $6,000?

    One would figure a site like that would take a smaller vig.
