Big Game, not much action elsewhere

As you can imagine, no great systems, angles or trends going today with so few games and baseball getting started. I expect we will be back to normal on Tuesday.

I think tonight’s title game is really on the nose. About 55 percent of the members of the Left Coast Connection are playing Michigan State. Personally, I’m passing on the side and total. I think the numbers are correct so why throw away good money on a guess. I’m in a different pool and need Michigan State and Under so that will be good enough for me.

I’m always amazed by the number of handicappers who charge out of the gate with baseball, having three to five plays. I understand they want to look knowledgeable and may have insights that I don’t. However, I usually have two-four plays the first eight or nine games, because in truth, nobody really knows how things will begin. It’s is similar to betting 10 NFL games in week one, lots of things can happen. Granted, it is their job to sell picks and if they don’t their is no cash coming in.

It has served me wisely to be extremely selective until you have a feel about baseball. Read boxscores, see how teams are playing, this has helped me be 346-271, +41.66 units of profit over the last two years.

This year I’m more prepared than ever to do well, but that does not guarantee me or anyone else anything. If you would like my MLB plays, signup to the right and my NBA plays have been rock solid all year.

Enjoy the game and Good Luck.
