Bodog handicaps the individual favorite for the head coaching job as Indianapolis assistant Jim Caldwell by a slim margin, followed closely by Rex Ryan, Mike Singletary and Jason Garrett.
According to a representative from Bodog, folks can actually wager on these events. In Las Vegas, casinos would not be permitted to take a wager on something like whether a guy signs or not, or a new head coach because it's an event where the outcome is something about which someone can have prior knowledge. But occasionally, online gambling sites will take such wagers, such as Time Magazine's Person of the Year.
So here goes (again, the odds were sent to me by a representative of Bodog who cautions that the odds can be fluid).
