Not So Fast: Here Are Five Players Bound to Regress After Hot Starts

May 13, 2016

As baseball’s first quarter draws to a close, we have learned a lot of things thus far. The Cubs are a juggernaut. That Clayton Kershaw guy is still pretty good. Everyone prematurely jumped on the Astros bandwagon. And, oh yeah, Bartolo Colon is, and always will be, the most interesting man in baseball. But it is important to remember that there is still a long way to go in the 2016 season….

Rapid Fire MLB Predictions- May 13th

May 13, 2016

After a two day hiatus, I’m back hoping to keep my hot streak rolling. Home Team in Italics  and Best Bets indicated with ** Last Night (May 10th):  7-6 (+160 if betting $100 on every game) Overall Record: 68-42 (+2,600) Best Bets: 12-8 (+275)   **Chicago Cubs (-150) over Pittsburgh The Cubs dropped their last two games to the Padres (the Padres?), so I’ll bet against the best team in baseball losing a…

Gronk To Be Madden 17 Cover Boy

May 13, 2016

Not a bad choice EA, not a bad choice at all. Despite being a Jets fan, I can’t help but admire how awesome Rob Gronkowski is. From trucking defenders and catching touchdown passes to partying on a boat with beautiful women, how can you not respect the guy? Don’t get me wrong, when the Jets and Patriots play I’m rooting for Gronk to get his teeth kicked in. In fact, how can I…

May 9, 2016

I don’t know if I’m just getting lucky or if I should move to Vegas and do this for a living because I was hot yesterday. It’s probably the former.

Rapid Fire MLB Predictions- May 8th

May 8, 2016

I’m coming off another profitable day at the office, yet I’m hoping my best bets can turn around. Home Team in Italics  and Best Bets indicated with ** Last Night:  9-7 (+165 if betting $100 on every game) Overall Record: 41-27 (+1,430) Best Bets: 6-6 (-80)   Los Angeles (+155) over Toronto In terms of run differential, these teams are even, so I think it’s a no-brainer to take the Dodgers at…

Firing Dave Joerger is a Horrible Decision by the Memphis Grizzlies

May 7, 2016

The Indiana Pacers decision to let Frank Vogel walk may have been questionable, but when I first heard of the Memphis Grizzlies choice to fire head coach Dave Joerger, I thought it was deplorable. However, apparently Joerger was trying to work his way out of Memphis, which makes it understandable for Memphis’s front office to be ticked off. With that said, this development will set the Grizzlies franchise back and…

Las Vegas and Six Other Cities a New Sports Team Should Be

May 6, 2016

Oakland Raiders owner Mark Davis has been in the news recently because he is seriously considering moving the Raiders to Las Vegas. I’ve heard the NFL is not to keen on this idea, but I like it for a few reasons. One, I was in the Bay Area earlier this year for a Warriors game and I could not help but notice what a dump the O.co Coliseum is. No wonder…

Early Bird Fantasy Football Top 10 Rankings

May 6, 2016

I know, I know. Its the beginning of May, why am I worried about fantasy football? The Super Bowl was just a couple months ago and teams haven’t even met for OTAs. But football season seems so close, I can taste it. In fact, just the other day I found out that mock draft lobbies are now open on ESPN. So due to my undying love for fantasy football, and boredom, here…

Should These 4 MLB Teams Be Concerned After Slow-Starts?

May 5, 2016

It may be early in the 2016 Major League Baseball season, but consider this: all six division leaders on May 5th of last year made the playoffs. So though it’s not absolutely vital to start the season off strong, it sure does help. On the other hand, there are a few teams off to surprisingly slow starts. After leading baseball in run differential last year, the Toronto Blue Jays are…
