How To Beat the Pro Football Pointspread
Bobby,
How To Beat the Pro Football Pointspread is a brilliant book. I'm recommending it to all my friends. You certainly did raise the bar. I've read every NFL handicapping book available -- Lem Banker, Phil Steele, Mike Lee, Jerry Higgins, J.R. Miller, Richard Ross, Jim Barnes, John Painter, Jerry Patterson, Wayne Alyn Root, Tony Salinas, Kelso Sturgeon, Art Glantz (a good friend), Alan Pesin, Andy Isko, Marc Lawrence, Kevin O'Neil, Dr. Bob, etc. -- and I have to rate your book the best...I'm already using it to prepare for next season. Looking forward to your Zone Blitz report in August! -- Mike

Bobby,
I am on Chapter 13 of your new book and I just wanted to let you know that it is in my top 4 for best book I ever read. I have read about 15 books on sports betting and this is the best one I have read on that topic by far. It is very well written, the facts are amazing, the research put into the book is obviously top notch, and the approach you take to analyzing NFL games is awesome. I have already applied some of your NFL techniques to NBA and NCAAB and the results have been positive...This book has truly inspired me to becoming a more in depth researcher, and I believe it will really pay dividends this coming NFL season. I am so excited for the schedule to come out so I can start my ''spring mini camp.'' I have also begun to analyze coaching and personnel moves this offseason more than ever before, and I am excited to look at some key statistical categories from last year with a new vision based on your writings...Thank you so much for writing this book. I can't tell you how many points in your book are just amazing. I was underlining and highlighting things on almost every page it seemed! -- Jeff

''...There were so many things I took out of your book. Things that I had thought about before but had no idea how to implement so thank you for your insight. -- All the best,
David

APRIL, 2010 – Ignoring NFL Draft Babble -- I don’t follow the prelude to the NFL draft, or the draft itself, and neither should you. A long time ago, your parents probably told you that it was wise not to waste time on things you cannot control. Because the NFL draft is attended by 20-something zealots, it’s obvious that those parenting lessons have yet to sink in. Someday, they’ll learn. A sports bettor need only concern himself or herself with who is on these NFL teams in September, and how all those players are being utilized. Sure, it’s nice to know who has been drafted by whom. But between now and September, there are injuries, position competitions and… MORE
