MLB Baseball Betting: Chicago Cubs at San Diego Padres
One of the important components of successful baseball handicapping is figuring out when to step in with a team in what is otherwise a money losing situation for them. We think we’ve got one tonight as the Chicago Cubs try to hang on to the second wild card spot in the National League as they […]
MLB Baseball Betting: Arizona Diamondbacks at New York Mets
Both of these teams are in the hunt for a wild card spot but Arizona is more ‘under the radar’ and actually in better form. Despite losing their last two games the Diamondbacks have won 7 of their last 10 and 9 of their last 12. They’ll return home after this four game series to […]
NFL Football Betting: Houston Texans at New Orleans Saints
The now ‘traditional’ opening week Monday Night Football double header features some games that should be intriguing if not particularly significant. In the ‘nightcap’ we get to see how things will go for new head coach Vic Fangio in Denver with Joe Flacco under center. We’ll also see what Oakland will bring to the table […]
NFL Football Betting: Pittsburgh Steelers at New England Patriots
The first Sunday Night prime time NFL game of the season looks like a good one as the Pittsburgh Steelers head up to Foxboro to take on the defending Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots. Unfortunately, newly signed Patriots wide receiver Antonio Brown is not eligible to play here which would have been an incredible […]
College Football Betting: Arkansas State at UNLV
As tends to happen in my ‘line of work’ I’ve spent a good many years living in Las Vegas. One thing that ‘outsiders’ don’t realize is that the city has a lot of civic pride. It might manifest itself differently than it would in New York or Chicago but Las Vegans love their unique and […]

College Football Betting: BYU at Tennessee
The 2019 college football season really couldn’t have started any worse for the University of Tennessee. There’s no shame at all in losing to an elite FCS program like the juggernaut that Craig Bohl and Chris Klieman built at North Dakota State winning 7 of the last 8 division championships. There is plenty of shame […]

NFL Football Betting: Tennessee Titans at Cleveland Browns
“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” — Mark Twain Since Mark Twain died 10 years before the National Football League’s inaugural season we can safely assume that he never handicapped professional football. Even so, his skeptical nature as embodied in the previous quote would […]
MLB Baseball Betting: Los Angeles Angels at Oakland Athletics
We’re into September and the final month of the Major League Baseball season. September 1 is a significant day in professional baseball lore as on this day rosters expand from 25 to 40 players. This allows minor league prospects to get some playing time in the Big Leagues. Or at least it did–2019 will be […]
NFL Football Betting: Buffalo Bills at New York Jets
The first Sunday of the NFL season features a battle of New York teams as the Buffalo Bills head to the Meadowlands to face the New York Jets. Neither team was much to write home about last season with Buffalo finishing 6-10 and the Jets 4-12. Now the Jets have hit the ‘reset’ button and […]

More non-conference action in Week 2 of the college football season as South Florida makes the trip to Atlanta to take on Georgia Tech at Bobby Dodd Stadium.

College Football Betting: Notre Dame at Louisville
Week 1 of the college football season concludes with a special Monday Night matchup as Notre Dame heads down to Bluegrass Country to take on the University of Louisville.

College Football Betting: Wyoming at Missouri
Not sure whether to call this my ‘Bonehead Line Move Play of the Month’ or my ‘High Altitude Play of the Year’. The Missouri Tigers open their season on the road in the remote environs of Laramie, Wyoming as they take on the Wyoming Cowboys. This game opened at -14.5 when college football odds were […]
College Football Betting: Houston at Oklahoma
A new era at the University of Houston. Major Applewhite is gone and reports suggest that he was done in by an outsized ego and undersized accomplishments. The Cougars landed a major upgrade for the head coaching spot bringing in former West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen. He’s making a ton of money but he […]
