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.

Last year, it was a place where somebody claimed that a Super Bowl prop, “Which team will kick off first?” was a lock. We took that one to task, and naturally, the clown’s “lock” of “Pittsburgh to kick off first” got beat when “offensive minded” Arizona won the toss and elected to kick off. That was a real hoot! Here are some current Super Bowl-related comments from the Lair of the Square. Some of them make very little sense, others are lucid. You be the judge on which is which. By the way, the 100 misspellings in these comments have been corrected. I can’t stand to see so many misspelled words in such a small space: “Indy gave up 1309 passing yards to Arizona, New England and 2 games against Houston. This averages out to about 327 yards a game against the only teams they played that were more than decent at throwing the ball. Lacey and Powers (Colts’ cornerbacks) have played great as rookies but I question how much stock we are putting into their performance.” MORE       Home | Contact Us | Membership | About Us | Legal | Sign-up NFL | NBA | NCAA Football | NCAA Basketball | Daily Picks
