Call Off The Dogs!

Before we get to this weeks post – WOW! What a baseball game last night.  I can’t wait for the game tonight.  I really hope the Cards win, I’d love to see Pujols get another ring and stay in St. Louis as I think it would be really good for the sport of baseball in [...]

Buy Low, Sell High, Lottery Tickets, & All That Jazz

It’s been awhile since we last spoke, so there’s a lot to update you on. For starters, an active trade deadline has opened up a few different opportunities to take advantage of off the waiver wire. Then, of course, we’ve got some serious injuries that have also opened up interesting situations that offer younger players a chance to prove their worth. Finally, there’s the need for me to explain my absence over the last two weeks, and to fill you in on the Cardinal Rule I broke via a move that locked up the win for me. Let’s get back to work.

Week 6 in the World of Sports Betting

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! Unfortunately this week I’ve been crazy busy and have a business trip to attend to this weekend, so I won’t be able to write a full article on gambling research like I had planned, but I will definitely follow up with that next week. In the meantime, I’ve got a little video lesson. It is a 60 Minutes invterview with Billy Walters, one of the most famous and successful sports gamblers in Vegas. If you haven’t seen it, it’s a great interview with a valuable lesson. Check it out:

Sports Betting as an Investment

Before getting to this week’s post, I want to bring up an important point I brought up last week regarding point spreads – staying away from the favourites on big lines if you’re a beginner.  I don’t even like to bet the big lines because you’re basically betting on one team to dominate or play [...]

Emergency Bye Week Fillers…That Are Available

Well we’ve finally come to the first bye week of the season, losing Cleveland, Dallas, St. Louis, Miami, Baltimore and Washington. Unless you’re playing in an especially shallow league, chances are you’re sitting in a position where you’ve got to plug a hole and the waiver wire options are limited. I figured, since most of my best lottery ticket players are owned now, why not cover some of the most available players who make good plugs at each position this week. This post will cover only players who are less than 15% owned in leagues. Check it out.

Week Four In Review: Buy Low, Sell High

Believe it or not, the past four weeks of games mean absolutely nothing. Even if your team is currently sitting 0-4, it doesn’t really matter because we are just now getting into the part of the season where the real separation comes in: bye weeks. The existence of bye weeks can turn any 0-4 team around in a snap provided you’re the one with the suitable/effective replacements. Moreover, bye weeks are where you can convince another weak record team, who doesn’t have the luxury of losing any more games, into selling low on a stud to fill a gap on their roster. Bye weeks in the NFL start now, so let’s recap this week’s games and see where the opportunities lie.

Fantasy Football Lottery Ticket Players For Week Four

It’s Saturday night (or Sunday morning, depending on when you read this) and you just completed a nice 2-1 trade in your league that upgraded a position nicely, but also left you with a hole on the roster. You’re scanning through the names on the waiver wire and nothing jumps out at you, no obvious pickups. You decide to settle on a tight end, marking the second (or third) on your bench with a plethora of equal talent at the position still on the wire. Don’t do that, there’s still some low ownership hidden talent to be had and yours truly has uncovered a few of those gems.
