Love him or hate him, you really have to love the respect class and dignity Dennis Rodman showed as he got into the Hall Of Fame today. The greatest part of Dennis getting into the Hall, is that he really did it his way and he got there by being a true team player. On the court he was a maniac, off the court he was a lunatic. His speech was incredible and as he was ushered into basketballs greatest theater. Dennis was all class, so the crazy one with all of his on and off the court antics surprised us again. All class.
The gym rat Chris Mullin also got the nod today and that man could shoot. Drunk or sober he shot and his hands were often compared to Larry Bird. Well looks like those people who said that were right as rain. Mullin is now in the same place as Bird a Hall Of Famer. Huge difference, Bird Celtics many championships, Mullin Golden State and just hoping to make the playoffs. Another class act who deserves all of the accolades and comparisons.
Have a felling that this major will be won a another surprise. What if Davis Love the 3rd wins it? He will then have enough points to qualify for the Ryder Cup when next played. So would he be a playing captain or will he pass? That would be fun though.
The free falling San Francisco Giants set a major League record today when they hit their 20th consecutive solo Home Run. Nice record but also shows why they have scored less then 2 runs a game since the All-Star break. 4games up when they picked up Carlos Beltran now 15 games later 2 games out. What a treat. Timmy last 10 starts 5-4 with a 1.67 era. As a Brewer he would be no less then 9-1 during that stretch. It has gotten so bad that Matt Cain was sorry for giving up 2 runs in 6 innings. Saying he let the team down. There is something very wrong when a pitcher is sorry for giving up 2 runs in a decent start. Carlos Beltran got a shot today but still may be headed to the DL.
Betting on preseason football. I do not for the most part bet on preseason football. It is a wonderful way to torch your bankroll before the real stuff ever begins. I usually do not play week 1 in the NFL, maybe 1 or 2 plays. I will fire and fire hard in week 2 though. I will have a great week 2, but you all need me for football. Both College and NFL, both will make you money and I am one of the best in the country period. I have taken on touts, and pro services for any amount that they want to put up. The difference is that these so called experts want to play 1000 star special and such. My rules are 1 unit selections with top plays being 2 units and at the very top of the food chain a 3 unit selection. Email me at anytime and I will give you my plan that fits your needs. Oh yeah, you make one payment and get all plays from start to finish. You get from week 1 thru the Super Bowl! You get all plays big and small and I wont make you play more money or lock parlays and then ask for more money. Only marketeers do this. It is the wrong way to do business. In College you will get week 1 all the way to all the Bowl Games!!! I will have a play on almost every Bowl game and hit a minimum 65% winners. Also be wary of the guy who says he is going to hit 80 to 90 percent of their plays.
Back to preseason, a solid way to go if you must play these meaningless games is to look at rookie coaches. These coaches want to change a culture and every win is important. Another way to go is to play on coaches going to losing teams. Again every win is a must. These coaches have to get the players to buy in right from the start.

ReplyDeletestarted again. I almost wish it was Bowl season. I don't know how you do it, but college Bowl picks are nothing short of sensational.
You are a man of your word, a rare commodity in this business.
