Monday Night Football Picks: San Francisco 49ers at St. Louis Rams

NFL Picks Week Six, Monday Night Football: 49ers at Rams

The San Francisco 49ers are an interesting team. They have a coach they want to fire after incredible, sustained success. They have a quarterback that very suddenly isn’t achieving after being handed the reins. They have a dysfunctional locker room brimming with talent, struggling with inconsistency. Thus, we have our -3 line on the road against a bad Rams team.

To that end, the St. Louis Rams are an interesting team too. Without their starting quarterback, they’ve found a way to win with a third stringer and be  ... 

NFL Picks Week Six, Sunday Night Football: Giants Eagles

NFL Picks Week Six: New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles

Our only system play today was the Baltimore Ravens and that one was over shortly after it started. Sitting pretty, we’ll look at the Sunday Night Game, despite it’s lack of value and computer signal.

Z-Code suggests staying away, and I agree. The computer has basically a coin flip output with a small spread. The algorithm is essentially saying “Vegas got this right, just watch and enjoy a good game”. It is further limited in value by the fact that Sunday Night Football is always a highly public betting  ... 

2014 MLB Playoffs: ALCS and NLCS Predictions

MLB Playoffs Bracket: ALCS and NLCS Predictions

What an exciting first round of the 2014 MLB Playoffs. Close games, epic comebacks, and unexpected results. All in all, we didn’t do too bad, but the San Francisco Giants upsetting the Washington Nationals was not something I saw coming. We nailed the Baltimore Orioles dominating their series, and we got the St. Louis Cardinals upset as well. That said, the burning hot Royals have been very impressive and I don’t think anyone predicted a sweep. All in all, we’re up over $1,000 on the season with an average bet around 50 bucks. If we can have a strong finish to the playoffs, this season will be another profitable one. Let’s move on to the seven-game series round.

ALCS

Baltimore Orioles vs Kansas City Royals

I don’t think anyone is giving the Royals a chance, again, and that may prove to be a mistake. While the Orioles are on fire, the Royals have  ...

2014 NHL Predictions: Ducks, Kings, Sharks in Pacific Division Preview

2014 NHL Predictions: Pacific Division Preview – Ducks, Kings, Sharks

The 2014-15 season starts tomorrow, so we’ll post our final division preview before getting into game picks tomorrow. The Pacific division had three teams with a positive goal differential, which, not so coincidentally, meant three playoff teams last year. The LA Kings, who ultimately won another Stanley Cup, the top-seeded Anaheim Ducks, and the perennial postseason let downs, the San Jose Sharks. Does 2014 have anything new in store, or will this division play out exactly how it did last season? Can the newly renamed “Arizona Coyotes” squeak back into the playoffs?

San Jose Sharks (110 points) – Same team, same results. The San Jose Sharks are the most consistent team in the Pacific, which may be enough for a top seed as the rest of this division tinkers with their rosters. In any event, the mediocrity of this division will see the Sharks to another playoff spot where they  ... 

2014 NHL Predictions: Chicago Blackhawks Return to Central Division Glory

2014 NHL Predictions: Central Division Preview – Chicago Blackhawks, Colorado Avalanche, and St. Louis Blues

One of the dumbest things about the realignment the NHL did last year is that two of the divisions only have seven teams in them.  Though their road to the playoffs is comparatively easier with one less team to leap frog, their travel considerations and the talent of these divisions seem to balance things out.  The Minnesota Wild spent a lot of money getting back into the playoffs, the Dallas Stars snuck in as the other wild card, and the Colorado Avalanche rose to the top of the division.  Meanwhile, the Chicago Blackhawks continued their winning ways and the St. Louis Blues’ defensive system continued to win, getting better after the addition of Ryan Miller (now with the Canucks).  With the Preds adding James Neal and getting Pekka Rinne healthy, they should be much improved too.  Simply put, the Central Division is loaded.
