The Big Ten Betting Extravaganza: Week 12
Last week's loss was probably my fault. You may recall the Failpants I was wearing when I wrote this: I don't know about you, but I don't think I would want to have to give Indiana 21.5 points. That was a typo. Clearly what I meant was: I don't know about you, but I don't think I would want to...
The Big Ten Betting Extravaganza: Week 11
First of all I'd like to mention how smart you all were last week in your infinite wisdom to take Illinois and the 3.5 very important points instead of taking them straight up. That was the right thing to do. It feels good to do the right thing, doesn't it? Keep doing that. Good, then. Your...
The Big Ten Betting Extravaganza: Week 5
First off, let's go to Ham Porter with a quick review on last week's performance: What he said But you know what? It's not your fault. Let's blame justfuckingNorthwestern. I hate them already and if you're a true Hawkeye/American/Human you should hate them too. At any rate, we've had a rough...
The Big Ten Betting Extravaganza: Week 4
Another week, another half point loss. Something tells me those oddsmaker bastards know what they're doing. Last week's poll results were clear. We think Minnesota sucks. And fair enough. Any reasonable person would draw the same conclusion. Unfortunately, USC isn't exactly a powerhouse...

49ers 2009 Schedule: Favorite, Underdog, or Even
As much as folks love the game of football, a big reason for the NFL's popularity is the ability to gamble on the games. We all know the real reason they post the injury reports (fantasy usefulness aside). We all know why ESPN rolls out Hank Goldberg to throw out his predictions. Combine the...
2007 Review: Hope you didn't bet on the 49ers
Hope everybody had a great 4th. The day after a holiday is usually pretty slow and Saturday was no different for me. During the down time I was poking around and realized I had not discussed the gambling implications of the 49ers in 2007. Since starting Niners Nation, I've used Scores and Odds...
