Football Season Outlook And Challenges

Tony George
Tony George

As football season fast approaches, I have made it my mission this year is to repeat my 2003 season prowess where I won the Ultimate Handicapping Challenge with a 69% ATS NFL record, and finished the College season at 68% ATS…

I finished 1st and 2nd respectfully in those 2 sports.

While those are lofty numbers, I accept that challenge personally this year and look forward to large profits, as 17 years of experience have taught me much.

Looking at this year’s crop of first round picks, the question is which players will have the biggest impact for their respective team?
