NEW ENGLAND BEATING THE SPREAD

Can New England do it ?

We all know the only NFL team to go undefeted in one season was the 1972 Miami Dolphins. They finished the regular season 14-0 and won all 3
playoff games to finish with a 17-0 perfect season. This New England team is simply blowing people out while averging over 34 points a game.

But as a fellow gambler my question is not if they could win all their games, can the keep covering the point spread?

New England is a perfect 6-0 Against The Spread and we all know how hard it is to cover 6 games in a row. If somebody has accurate information about the most time a team has ever covered a pointspread in a row,we would love to hear from you.

In the mean time lets keep watching this team. They are a 17 point favorite on the road versus Miami. Each week will get harder.But if they could ever pull this off, this would be some kind of streak Vegas would hate to see.

TOLL FREE PICK AND 800 NUMBERS

You are really paying for the FREE picks

Did you ever call a 1-800 number for a free pick selection? Then some guy is screaming at you on the T.V. It makes me wonder is this guy an actor or a handicapper?

This is rediculous! It’s like when everybody thought the two old guys, Bartles and Jaymes, really made wine coolers. That was marketing genius. The picks that are released Free are probably done by some guy closing his eyes and throwing darts at a board.

They win, not you. Even if you call from a restricted line , be assured someone will call in the future promoting a Big Game you need to buy . I call this TELESPAMING ,1-800- GET- SPAM.

LATE TELEPHONE SERVICE

How late are telephone services?

When you join a late telephone service, your hoping to get late breaking information. Unfortunately some of the late telephone services are more marketing driven than professional handicapper driven.

The selections that are given to you may come out as early as Thursday and as late as 11:00 AM for Saturday’s and Sunday’s plays. I always try to give out my picks one hour before the game starts. This is to make sure you have the right spread on your side. So be carefull, you want to get a true late telephone service to stay ahead of the game.

WEEKLY NEWS LETTERS FOR SPORTS PICKS

Are weekly news letters a good resource for sports picks ?

I do not believe that weekly newsletters are a valid resource for picking games. The newsletters are a marketing tool to promote picks in different categories. For example, some of these newsletters will promote their picks in the following manner, 5 stars, 4 stars, dog of the week, total of the week etc. Now lets say their 4 star picks go 2-0. All they will promote is the winning catagory. No mention of the losers. This is a form of marketing, not handdicapping. These newsletters are done by marketing people not handicappers. They are usually printed on Sunday or Monday for Tuesday delivery. Having picks this far ahead of time is bad info because many things can happen to change a point spread in four days.
