Each week Doc's Sports will take a look at the sports betting world in an A-Z format.

A - Anderson, Derek. Be honest - could you have named Cleveland's backup QB before last Sunday? Anderson may have been an anonymous player on an anonymous team, but he announced himself when he entered the game in relief of the injured Charlie Frye. His team was down by 14, so he led two touchdown drives in the last nine minutes, and then set up the winning field goal in overtime with an impressive scramble. Quarterback controversy?

B - BCS. As a diehard Michigan fan, this is not my favorite topic these days. We got screwed, and nothing you can say will change my mind. On the plus side, the national title game just became very easy to handicap.Ohio State is a bargain at anything less than two touchdowns.

It's a phrase you have heard over and over, "diversify your portfolio", but what does it mean to someone with little or no financial background? The world of stock markets, volatility and portfolios in general may not be all that familiar. Fortunately, in this day and age there are ways to diversify that don't require you to be all that savvy.
