Happy Halloween to all you degenerates out there! It’s a time for frightful tooth decay and odd three-month pop-up stores. But it’s also a time for football and sports betting. So without any further delay, let’s get into the Happy Halloween action for Week 8. Mr. Yours Truly, Mr. SportsKnowItAll, is going with the spookiest […]
Never Bet the Farm3 [W7] – Lucky #7
Lucky #7 is here, and I could certainly use some good gambling fortune. I’m due you could say. Luckily, I got a feeling in my gut. Could it be related to a somewhat unhealthy meal I had earlier? Uh, I guess, but mind your business… I’m taking it as a sign of good bets to […]
Never Bet the Farm3 [W6] – Fast picks
Fast is the key! Money is attracted to speed and motion. Or at least that’s what I’m banking on this week. A little bit out of necessity… But, you can also call it a fast little experiment. (Get me a white coat or something.) See… I have a tendency to overthink things from time to […]
Never Bet the Farm3 [W5] – Over/Under
The Over/Under bet has been good to me this season (so far). It’s practically a 50/50 chance, right? In fact, there have been many low-scoring NFL games this season. Is it the defenses? Poor offenses? More importantly, what does it mean for future wagering? No worries… Let’s get right into the action for Week 5. […]
Never Bet the Farm3 [W4] – Pumpkin spice
Pumpkin spice season is upon us… Or at least that’s what the “coffee artist” told me this morning before I intentionally flooded the self-service bar with my free refill. (I’m not really my best in the morning before my plain coffee, especially when people talk to me, but that’s because I’m usually my best the […]
Never Bet the Farm3 [W3] – Closer, closer
Closer and closer… This has got to be the week, right? I went 4-2 last week, and although I rarely look back in my betting life (wish I followed the same principles in my dating life), I think it’s important to point out my undefeated professional picks. Got let down by those darn college kids. […]
Never Bet the Farm3 [W2] – Underreaction
An underreaction. It’s really the only way to combat the yearly Week 1 overreactions. They come every season, at this same time, to confuse everyone except the oddsmakers (somehow). By underreacting, you take the power back (which is everything in a relationship – just ask my ex). It’s important to know this dynamic, but the […]
Never Bet the Farm3 [W1] – Bets Same Age
The thing I like about sports bets is… I keep getting older, and they — well, they don’t really have an age in the first place. I mean there’s an age requirement for you to gamble (of course), but the wagers don’t really apply to that. Regardless, it’s the start of the NFL season again. […]
March Madness: Sugary16
March Madness bounces on to the Sweet 16. (or the Sugary 16 as I like to say) After a few days back on campus, these “student” athletes (who can now get NIL deals) are back on the court and lines are up to break down. Momentum and routines have changed again. Who’s got the inside […]
64 & Counting (Part 2)
64 & counting… Or, well, I guess it’s way fewer now. 48 & counting then… Luckily for us, that still means there are plenty of great matchups to choose. Let’s get right into it! Mr. Yours Truly, a.k.a. the genius who brought you Never Bet the Farm (Part 1 & Part 2), Mr. SportsKnowItAll, is […]
