n scoring a touchdown anytime in the game. Theres also a lovely 5/1 bet on Olsen and Newton scoring a TD each, which I would jump all over.Blessed with a good running gameBoth Denver and Carolina are blessed with pretty good running

If desperately trying to hold on to my youth has taught me anything, its that a near daily check-in is required to stay on top of whats in. In a blink, Snapchat took over the social media landscape for the young and hip, leaving twenty- and thirtysomethings scrambling to figure out how to turn our tongues into rainbows and light our heads on fire.Mom jorts are somehow still in, man buns are already out and I should apparently be listening to more K-pop. We hated Justin Bieber, but now we love him -- or at least his music. We hated Taylor Swift, but now we love her -- except maybe I think were supposed to hate her again. Someone check Kim Kardashians app and let me know. Orange is the New Black, Hiddleston is the new Harris and Pokemon is going to get us all robbed.?I guess Heidi Klum is right: One day you are in, the next you are out. No one knows that better than Olympic athletes, who toil away in relative obscurity for years so they can enjoy the biggest stage in the world for one week, one day, sometimes just a few seconds. And then the spotlight is gone again and its back to work, or, for many, the reality of a future without that Olympic goal four years away.There are a few athletes every go-round that do manage to capture Americas heart and hang on, turning their crowning athletic achievement into years of endorsements, commercials and speaking engagements. The mere mention of these folks conjures up patriotic fever dreams of bald eagles, perfectly grilled hot dogs and Ralph Lauren blazers. Im talking about the Mary Lou Rettons, Jackie Joyner-Kersees and Michael Phelpses of the world -- athletes forever etched in our minds.There are other?athletes who never reach that kind of Olympic-recognition zenith, but who can still parlay their moment of Games glory into a pretty great career -- maybe even a stint on Dancing With The Stars. This summer well see the return of some big names -- like Phelps, Alex Morgan, Missy Franklin and Gabby Douglas -- but also some fresh new faces poised to steal our hearts -- and a future cover of People magazine.Lets take a guess at which Rio stars might become our new American heroes -- or at the very least be doing the paso doble with Val Chmerkovskiy come September.Simone Biles: With a gold in Glasgow last year, Biles became the first woman to win three straight all-around world titles. Theres a ton of hype for the 19-year-old heading into Rio, including former Olympic all-around champion Nastia Liukin calling her the best gymnast who ever lived. Since winning the U.S. all-around title in August 2013, shes won every all-around competition shes entered -- 11 straight. Successful U.S. womens gymnasts tend to make the most out of their time in the Olympic spotlight, so its safe to say Biles could be on her way to American hero status.Miles Chamley-Watson and Ibtihaj Muhammad: Chances are the only fencing youve seen in the past four years has involved light sabers and that brooding dude from Girls in a creepy mask. Well, en garde, because youre about to meet two of the most intriguing athletes at this years Olympics. Chamley-Watson is a part-time model with bleached hair and tattoos who regularly posts shirtless snaps to his Instagram and calls his fencing peers vanilla and super boring. Muhammad is a New Jersey native who will make history as the first U.S. woman to compete wearing a hijab. Shes funny and outspoken and will no doubt be the focus of a lot of attention during this divisive time in our country. Shes more than able to turn her Olympic platform into something truly inspiring.Katie Ledecky: At just 15 years old Ledecky shocked even her U.S. teammates, winning Olympic gold in the 800 meters in London. Since then shes set 11 world records and won every major international competition shes entered. She heads to Rio with world records in the 400, 800 and 1,500 freestyle. In USA Today, 11-time Olympic medalist Ryan Lochte said of Ledecky, I guarantee in Rio everyones mouths are going to drop during one of her races. Shes going to do a time where everyones going to be like, What the heck just happened?Adeline Gray: Ever since her first wrestling class at age 6, Gray has been a natural. As a girl she fought attempts to keep her off the boys teams and won a lot of matches via forfeit when the guys werent willing to fight her. As womens wrestling grows, she gets to be the kind of role model that she didnt have growing up. After baring all in ESPN The Magazines Body Issue, the 25-year-old is ready to leave it all on the mat in Rio. If fans get a chance to hear much from Gray, theyll fall in love instantly. Her skill, wisdom and charm could make her a star.Kanak Jha: Table tennis doesnt usually get much play during prime-time coverage of the Olympics, but you can bet there will be a feature or two on Jha in the coming weeks. A 16-year-old out of the Bay Area, hes the youngest Olympian on the U.S. team and was the first athlete born in the 2000s to qualify. While his path to the podium seems even tougher than Stephen Colberts at last weeks Democratic National Convention (Jhas currently ranked 272nd in the world), hes sure to get plenty of attention in his first trip to the Olympics. And at the very least he can probably show the older athletes how to turn on two filters at once on Snapchat.***This episode of the Thats What She Said podcast features award-winning USA Today columnist Christine Brennan calling in from Rio. Just a few hours after landing at the site of the upcoming Olympics, Brennan shares her first impressions of the city and whether it feels ready for the ultimate global spotlight. Brennan is covering her 17th straight Olympics and lends her perspective on the many concerns heading into this years event.Thanks as always for tuning in -- you can catch a new episode every Tuesday.

Sky Bet are offering 108 bets in total, but here are Alex Ferguson’s Top 10 value-for-money picks. Sky Bets offers All the details around Super Bowl 50 We love SupermanCam Newton has done everything this year, including throwing himself through the air like the Man Of Steel into the end-zone. Sky Bet are offering 7/4 on him to score a TD, Carolina to win the Super Bowl, and Newton to win the MVP. I love it - because Carolina have won all season, hes scored in more than half of their wins - and the Super Bowl has been kind to quarterbacks. Our exclusive interview with Panthers HC Ron Rivera If you like defences…If you like defences, you will probably like the field goals bet - bearing in mind that Denver kicker Brandon McManus is an 85.7 percent kicker and Scottish-born Graham Gano is an 83.3 percent kicker. Both have good enough defences to stop this game getting into a New Orleans vs New York Giants style shoot-out, so we reckon both sides hitting more than 1.5 field goals each at 7/2 is a lovely bet.Emmanuel…We nearly had an old Arsenal song about Emmanuel Petit coming out there, but instead were thinking of Emmanuel Sanders. If theres one wide receiver who can cause trouble to Carolinas defense, its Sanders. Hes 10/1 to be the first TD scorer, and 6/4 to score anytime. Take it. Redskins QB Kirk Cousins breaks down Super Bowl 50 Peyton Manning: Interception Machine or out of the system?Ive been cruel about Manning and his throwing all season long - which has been dreadful. Hes thrown for nine TDs and 17 INTss, and was basically dropped by Denver for Brock Osweiler in the last third of the season.dddddddddddd When Osweiler was injured, Manning returned and he hasnt thrown an interception since. Carolina have such a good secondary that I think Mannings going to be intercepted. If you lack faith in Manning, go for the 6/4 on Manning throwing more than 1.5 interceptions. Denvers defense: Holding up?Will Von Miller have a superstar game against Carolina? Hes 4/5 to have over 0.5 sacks. Heres a fun bet though: Cam Newton to throw more than 1.5 TDs, score a TD win the MVP but to get sacked by Miller over 0.5 times. Thats 6/1. We actually quite like that one. And speaking of Denvers defence, theyre 10/11 to keep Newton under 240.5 passing yards. Former NFL linebacker Dhani Jones has backed the Broncos to win this years Super Bowl Trust in Olsen…I love Greg Olsen, the Carolina tight end who would be the superstar at his position if he wasnt living in a Rob Gronkowski world. But Olsens playing for a ring, and Gronk isnt. Anyway, Olsens been Newtons top receiver, so we fancy him for over 70.5 receiving yards and 6/4 on scoring a touchdown anytime in the game. Theres also a lovely 5/1 bet on Olsen and Newton scoring a TD each, which I would jump all over.Blessed with a good running gameBoth Denver and Carolina are blessed with pretty good running games, so I think its foreseeable that Denvers CJ Anderson and Carolinas Jonathan Stewart could hit paydirt this weekend. A combined bet for both players to score a touchdown is 11/2. Thats pretty tidy odds. What songs will half-time act Coldplay perform? And the first scoring play is…We like the first scoring play to be a field goal - especially as I think both teams might start out a little timid and the defences will take charge. So were going for a field goal. Denver at 4/1 or Carolina at 11/4 does nicely.Love your singing? Were taking Lady Gagas effort to sing the National Anthem to last under 130.5 seconds. I just hope she doesnt come out in a meat dress. And Coldplay at the Super Bowl half-time show? I like 11/4 on Sky Full of Stars, although Adventure of a Lifetime is 7/4. If the games a horrible one, do you think they change the first song to Fix You?Oh Carolina…Finally, Carolinas 4/9 to win the big game (Denvers 15/8). While we dont particularly like the odds, we do like the 4/1 being offered on Carolina to win by 7-12 points. Im thinking Carolina by 10 here - in Vegas theyre almost 6-point favourites.
