LAS VEGAS — Over the past few weeks, there have been many different events going on in the entertainment world such a Dancing With the Stars, a potential one-on-one basketball game between LaVar Ball and Michael Jordan and also the search for a new Jeopardy host.
Odds To Win The Bachelorette

- Kaitlyn Bristowe -175
- Nev Schulman +225
- Nelly +500
- Justina Machado +1000
The Bachelor betting sites online allow us to wager on who will be sent home without a rose each week, as well as who will ultimately win the proposal at the end. Sometimes, you can even bet on which former contestant will be the next season’s bachelor or bachelorette. As of November 11, Ryan is at $4.50, and Timm follows with odds at $5.50. Carlin had a rather romantic introduction. (Instagram) Music played during introduction. Fans of The Bachelorette were quick to notice that the music played during Carlin's entrance indicated that he's likely to win Angie over.
As mentioned before, the former Bachelorette star, Kaitlyn Bristowe is seen as the favorite to win season 29 of Dancing With The Stars ahead of the season finale on Monday. Bristowe is currently in first place on the show after scoring 60 points in Week 10.
Following Bristowe is Justina Machado who is coming off of a 58-point performance in Week 10. In third place heading into the finale is Nelly who finished up Week 10 with 56 points which is the lowest of the four finalists but managed to stay afloat with his past performances.
In last place right now is Nev Schulman who also put up 60 points but is still feeling the damage from some of his lower-scoring performances early on in the show.
However, Bristowe is the clear favorite here amongst the four as she has scored the highest amount of points between the four in six of the ten weeks.
LaVar Ball Vs. Michael Jordan
Yes, sports bettors read that correctly, there are currently entertainment odds for a one on one basketball game between LaVar Ball and Michael Jordan where Michael Jordan is seen as the favorite.

There should be no doubt in any minds as to why Michael Jordan is the favorite here as he is the greatest basketball player of all time while LaVar Ball played just one year in college at Washington State where he averaged just 2.2 ppg.
However, LaVar Ball must have something up his sleeve as he has coached two of his three sons (Lonzo Ball & LaMelo Ball) to becoming top-3 picks in the NBA Draft while his other son (LiAngelo Ball) is currently on the Oklahoma City Thunder G-League affiliate team.
There is still speculation on if this matchup is going to happen, but many around and close to the NBA believe that Jordan’s inner competitive mentality will throw the challenge out there now that Jordan and the Charlotte Hornets drafted LaMelo Ball in the 2020 NBA Draft.
'I'm not kidding, I believe LaVar Ball will hear from Michael Jordan ONE time: MJ's assistant will inform LaVar that he should show up at LaMelo's first practice and come ready to play basketball.'@RealSkipBaylesspic.twitter.com/t9OIgmPX7q

Next Jeopardy Host
Following the passing of the former Jeopardy host, Alex Trebek, the popular game show is in search of their new host and there have been a couple of names thrown around as to who will take over.
Next Jeopardy Full-Time Host Odds
- Ken Jennings +100
- LeVar Burton +200
- George Stephanopoulos +500
Jennings is the obvious favorite being that he is a legendary Jeopardy Champion who is known for being the highest-earning game show contestant of all time as he has won Jeopardy a total of 74 times. It has also been made known that the producers of the show are looking for someone within the Jeopardy family to take over as the host as well.
Following Jennings is LeVar Burton, who was the host of Reading Rainbow for 21 seasons. Burton has made it known that he has interest in becoming the host of Jeopardy as well.
Not gonna lie, I feel like I’ve been preparing my whole life to occupy the @Jeopardy host podium when Alex retires. #Jeopardyhttps://t.co/N1HrMTCaYI
— LeVar Burton (@levarburton) September 22, 2020
There is also currently a petition going around for Burton to be named the host as well that has reached well over 75,000 signatures. Backing up the claim that Burton is interested in the open position is the fact that he himself shared the petition.
With that said, Burton could prove to be a beneficial choice to take over the next host of Jeopardy.

Odds To Win Bachelorette
I'll admit, statistics are just about the last thing I would think to combine with The Bachelorette. After all, the show is supposed to involve matters of the heart, not matters of probability! But website FiveThirtyEight has used math that could possibly help you win your Bachelorette bracket. Ella Koeze and Walt Hickey's research examined all the seasons of the show and found that there are patterns that could determine a contestant's likelihood of winning the Final Rose (and Rachel's heart). The ladies of Bustle's Will You Accept This Podcast? spoke to the FiveThirtyEightresearchers about all of their findings, but I would like to use their results in order to predict one thing in particular: Will Bryan Abasolo win The Bachelorette?
I'm not the biggest fan of Bryan. After he called Rachel 'sloppy seconds' on national television, it was clear that the suave chiropractor still has a lot of growing up to do. But, unlike me, Bachelorette Rachel seems to really like him. Not only did she give him the First Impression Rose, but he was the first person she decided to kiss: Not an insignificant gesture in the world of The Bachelorette. But what does receiving the First Impression Rose actually mean for Bryan's chances?
According to the report from FiveThirtyEight, it most likely means that he has a pretty decent chance of making it at least to the final four. Just over half (52.2 percent) of all First Impression Rose recipients made it to Hometowns — an impressive statistic considering the number of other contestants that had to be eliminated to get down to four. So, I'd wager there's a pretty good chance Bryan will be bringing Rachel to his hometown in Miami before the season ends.
But does that mean he'll win? Not necessarily. The report concludes that though First Impression Roses are a good predictor of who will make it past the initial few weeks, they aren't necessarily a reliable indicator for who will leave engaged. While it's true that four First Impression Rose winners have gone on to win their season, that only makes up 17.4 percent of all recipients of the coveted first rose. FiveThirtyEight reveals that a much better predictor of who might win is indicated by who gets a one-on-one date early on. Last season's Bachelor winner Vanessa Grimaldi had a one-on-one in Week 3, and Ashley Hebert's hubby (and father of her two adorable kids!) J.P. Rosenbaum also received a rose during his Week 3 one-on-one.
Week 3 has come and gone, and we still haven't seen a one-on-one date for Bryan. This doesn't mean that he has no shot at all of winning, and I'd say he definitely has a better chance than some other contestants (cough, Lee, cough). But as the weeks tick by with nothing but group dates for Byran, he might be consigned to the 82.6 percent of First Impression Rose recipients who leave brokenhearted.
Sorry Bryan — it's not personal, it's statistics!
