His total picks YTD after week 6 are disappointing. I track a number of various publications and his is the caboose..44% winners
I don't find much value in any of these to be honest. Betting is so much real time now that it's virtually impossible to make predictions on Monday and Tuesday for Saturday and Sunday games. There are some good stats in there and all that but people reading them for the selections I think are making a mistake unless you are looking for some fades.
These sheets don't account for weather, injuries, line moves, etc and that is super important stuff to consider before getting down on any game.
Thank you guys for ever thing you do....you have helped me make some nice entertaiment dollars the last couple of years. This site is awesome!
You could not be more accurate. The majority of these selection artists are exactly that...tip givers for those that do not want to put in any effort. If you revisited your comment you might chose to recognize that there are a few, a very few, services that do give out more than smarmy comments and here who is going to win mantra...for a price of course. For 10+ years I have tracked a couple of these touts and not one of them gets above 51-52%. Now they may claim to be better with breathless claims but they have the option to review an ever changing weekly line and select a day out of 6 that might that might reinforce their prognostication. How would the uninformed ever know? They also post winning spreads that land right on the current line. Not cute or effective. I take their predictions and only use one day of the week to see who they recommend. I document it. Most of these folks have between 10-15 selections within one point of the line. If they wanted to enhance their credibility they should post their pick as Alabama + 10.5...that is it. After the game they either won or lost. The closing line before the sites closes makes no difference for calculating their skill. But that said these folks are just making a living and there are many more people that feel comfortable to let someone else do their thinking for them. This is OK by me...it's just not how I approach the business.
Your sight has lots of appeal...all sorts of opinions and facts are available. If there could be a robust dialogue among football gamblers the evolution of that tire kicking might point out reasonable group think selections. Somewhat akin to horse racing...the favorite, year in and year out, wins 33% of the time.
Normally I do not read the Forum comments that don't pertain to an actual event. They replicate the kind of angry, ignorant stuff that's sullied about on the web. Who cares? Those folks are meaningless. From what I read about your efforts you have been doing this for many years. By now you should have built up a tough hide that is impervious to bitchers and moaners.
Please maintain
