After the jump, Brunibetting, the Eater oddsmakers, Eater Odds on Frank Bruni's NYT Review...

Ah, tricked you didn't I. I didn't see any odds posted--I suppose because Eater (which now has it's own url sans 'curbed') was on Labor Day break. So, the score as of 7/18: Eater, 3/7

OF NOTE since last Wednesday:
Frank Bruni writes a post, "Thieves Like Us," About diners stealing from restaurants
