FIFA World Cup 2010 - South Africa - Top Goalscorer

Here’s the beauty of betting on the World Cup in South Africa, you don’t have to just bet on who will win each game or the whole thing for that matter, you can even bet who will win the presigous "Golden Boot" and no it’s not a gold construction boot! It’s awarded to the top soccer player who scores the most goals in the WC tournament. Right now, Villa of Spain is favorite to win the Golden boot at +800. That means, wager $10 on Villa and if he scores the most goals, you net a return of investment of $80. Pretty cool eh? Well, this is out of my league, so you’re on your own on this one. Flip of the coin pick, give me Didier Drogba at +3000. Enjoy the tournament.
