Arena Football Betting Online: With the drama of the NFL lockout getting increasingly frustrating for fans every day, I think we could all use a little mindless football entertainment. Enter the Arena Football League, the high scoring, overlooked cousin of the NFL, currently entering the final stretch of its regular season. Use Bookmaker and its myriad resources to bet on the AFL and win.

With just five weeks left, the AFL playoff picture looks fairly solid. Three of the four division leads seem fairly secure, with the Arizona Rattlers, the Chicago Rush, and the Jacksonville Sharks all holding at least two game leads in their respective divisions.

The American East division, however, looks to be a battle to the finish. The Cleveland Gladiators and the Pittsburgh Power sit tied at 6-4, as the two teams head in separate directions. The Gladiators have stalled, suffering a 20 point loss to the Rattlers last week, as their normally stout defense allowed 63 points. The Power, on the other hand, have won three straight, including a nailbiter against Dallas a week ago, in which Vigilantes quarterback Dan Raudabaugh threw for 433 yards and 10 touchdowns, but fell to Pittsburgh 76-75.

Watch the East closely in the run up to the playoffs before you go throwing a random bet on either Cleveland or Pittsburgh.

Jacksonville and Arizona appear to be on a collision course for Arenabowl XXV, as they are clearly the top two teams in the league. The Sharks have an average point differential of 20 points per game, while the Rattlers come to nearly 14 points better than their opponent per contest. The next closest differential is owned by the Chicago Rush at a puny +5.5.

Jacksonville has won nine straight since an opening week loss to, who else, Arizona. These two teams seem destined to meet up in the big one, but with several weeks still left to play in the regular season, anything could happen. Make sure to get your football betting fix this summer with a smart bet on the AFL.
