The Breeders’ Cup is now five days gone, and it’s time to revisit my selections. I don’t need to see how I did (I know that intimately by now), but rather how I feel about my picks and the process behind them. The BC is a major crapshoot, so even the best handicapping in the […]
I’m a huge sports fan, and I write and think about betting on sports because I love it. I strongly believe that there is more to the pursuit than just a hobby, though. At my own site, Sports Investment Journal, I look at sports betting as an investment. Here are fifteen reasons why I believe […]
I had a perfectly average day of picks yesterday - four wins in eight games. I monumentally underestimated the power of the Patriots offense, or, more correctly, I overestimated the potency of the Redskins defense. Actually, I gave Washington credit for having a defense. Clearly a mistake. I also made the terrible mistake of trusting […]
I’m playing an abnormally high number of NFL games this week (8) because I am feeling post-Breeders’ Cup withdrawal, so the action will help me shake the blues.
Indianapolis (-6.5) at Carolina - I am concerned by the injury situations of both Marvin Harrison and Tony Ugoh. Despite that, Indy’s defense is healthy, and that makes […]
My beloved Curlin was absolutely dominant in the Breeders’ Cup Classic (and a major steal at 4/1 to boot) and wrapped up Horse of the Year, and my beloved Michigan rolled to an easy win and a cover of a huge spread against Minnesota. I may forget it sometimes, but life is pretty darned good.
You […]
I’ll be taking a week off of picking the college football games. I have spent the last hour or so trying to handicap the games, but every time I look at a line I see a thoroughbred galloping over it on the way to the finish line. That doesn’t help. I’ll be back post-euphoria with […]
It is truly ugly in New Jersey for the Breeders’ Cup. There are unconfirmed reports that Sheik Mohammed has ordered an ark to be built. When doing your final handicapping for the big day there’s really only one thing to remember: DON’T OVERTHINK IT. The weather is a mess, but it is just one factor […]
Boston College (+3.5) at Virginia Tech - I didn’t expect to have much interest in this showdown of ACC heavyweights, but then I wasn’t expecting the spread to be what it is, either. I’ve seen Virginia Tech play enough to know that I have a hard time believing in their offense when it matches up […]
The Breeders’ Cup is only two days away and I’m so excited I can hardly stand myself. I would do a bunch of analysis here, but I have spent the last couple of weeks doing that on another site, and it’s way too much work to do it again. Through the power of links, though, […]
Let me say this up front - I hate the Red Sox and I will be looking for a way to pick against them. They are smug and superior and they make me throw up a little every time I see them. I respect several of their individual players, but as a team I don’t […]
