Intro by Sam I’m officially the loser of the 2024 season. Somehow I’ve sunk below the $100 starting number, so Yank is officially declared the winner! I’d gripe, but I don’t deserve it this season with my performance. That being said, the bets won’t stop even though I’m declared the loser. Here are the picks!Continue reading “NFL Week 16 – 2024”

Intro by Yank This week we gave games featuring Mac Jones, Jameis Winston, Jake Haener, and Tommy DeVito. It’s grey and cold out most places but still too early to really think about the holidays. It’s Week 15 of the NFL season baby, feel the excitement! Lucky for you all(or maybe unlucky?) Sam and IContinue reading “NFL Week 15- 2024”

Intro by Sam The Sunday after Thanksgiving can be a little bit of a letdown, with so many fewer games than usual it’s hard for the matchups to feel as important. Lucky for us some of our favorite teams to bet against are still playing. These ones may not be super fun to watch, butContinue reading “NFL Week 13 – 2024”

Intro by Sam Tis the time of the year for the annual OLL Thanksgiving Day picks (supplemented with the Black Friday game). We’re coming off a pretty rough stretch on Sunday, so there’s nothing quite like a loaded Thursday stretch. With clear picks, full bellies, we can’t lose. Thanksgiving Day The Chicago Bears @ theContinue reading “Thanksgiving NFL Special – 2024”

Intro by Sam Fresh off a pretty good weekend all around, we’re ready to get back to the action today. At first glance, these matchups don’t look great, but we pulled apart the key ones to give our 7 readers a hand. Week 12 Picks The Collaboration:  The Detroit Lions-7.5 @ the Indianapolis Colts Sam:Continue reading “NFL Week 12 – 2024”

Intro by Yank I saw a news story this week that said FanDuel and DraftKings had to adjust their expected profits for this quarter, as football bettors have been doing better than expected. As we approach the holidays, let that be a sign unto you, my friends, there’s no time like the present! Week 11Continue reading “NFL Week 11- 2024”

Intro by Sam Last week was a bit of a disappointment after an awesome Week 8, but the good thing about football is that new games come every weekend. We won’t be dismayed by the poor performance, but instead, we will stick to our strategy of backing good teams and going against bad teams. ToContinue reading “NFL Week 10 – 2024”

Intro by Yank It is Taylor Swift weekend here in Indianapolis. The final US shows of the Eras Tour have the city in a frenzy. There is nearly as much excitement about our recent picks. The last two weeks results have been pretty close to my wildest dreams. The goal is to keep the goodContinue reading “NFL Week 9 – 2024”

Intro by Sam Since I’m not hungover from a great wedding, you’ll get this post at a regular time today. What a week for the record books, huh? In our second week of playing it, the Cousin Sal special comes through for us. Add in Yank throwing a no-hitter, and he almost doubled his remainingContinue reading “NFL Week 8 – 2024”

Intro by Yank The mid season doldrums are here. Our spirits, so high at the beginning of the season, falter. Our luck, strong to start out the year, has faded. The length of these intro paragraphs has decreased. But we press on, not because we have to, or even because we’re morally obligated to. WeContinue reading “NFL Week 7 – 2024”
