Sports Parlay Betting Tips & Handicapping

The Power of Sports Betting Parlays

Perhaps you’ve heard that old chestnut about the wheat and the chessboard. Long story short, put one grain of wheat on the first square, two on the second, four on the third, and keep doubling that amount until all 64 squares are covered. How many grains of wheat is that? 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. Even if you made the Earth a giant wheat farm, it would take 80 years to harvest that much grain.

View from the Couch – 2008 NFL Betting Week 7

Oct 14th, 2008 – Dissing-Parity

The Tennessee Titans are now the top ranked team in the NFL – and they attained that lofty status by taking the week off.

Welcome to the National Floccinaucinihilipilification League.

Floccinau-what? With 29 letters and 12 syllables, “floccinaucinihilipilification” is the longest non-technical word in the English dictionary and it is defined as “the act of describing something as worthless, or making something to be worthless by depreciation.”

Week 2 Fantasy Football Injuries

Week Two in the NFL is All about Injuries

This is Week 2 of the NFL Season and already the injury bug has changed the fortunes of many teams. It’s important to note that each team in the NFL plays 16 games and only 16 games. That means that a single win, or loss, could impact a team’s entire season.

Mike Pool Is Back With Another Poolside Rant

Poolside Rant

Although technically it’s a hottub or if you are a wealthy elitist, a spa, the point is its wet and hot, which gets the blood boiling for a rant. I am a little peeved with the NFL that nothing really amazing or unexpected happened over the inexcusably long off season. Normally that isn’t a problem but in this case is upsetting because it really leaves us with little to talk about or rant passionately upon.
