Marc Lawrence - Seriously?

On Covers he is giving out a Free pick on the O's/A's game. Marc is really going out on a limb here. He is giving out: A's -204.......as his Free Pick. Seriously.

Way to go Marc! You show them, right! Let's have a show of hands here on how many people do you think will follow Marc and play a $2 fave? Hopefully - NONE! Sadly - some.

I don't care if the A's win or not...............to put out a "Free Pick" on a $2 fave is disgraceful. But pretty much "Par for the Course" for this industry. Sadly. "Surprised" he didn't give out Dodgers -250ish for his Free Play/Day. Why not!

Mike Lee used to consistently use the Heaviest Fav on the MLB as his Free Phone daily comp. Would accumulate a solid record and quote his 65% win rate. Never quoted a net +/-Units.

He's probably my all-time favorite tout. I buy his Playbook every year. I loved his radio show on Friday nights late 90s, early 2000s from Florida.

Sorta like the ESPN show "Daily Wager" where they have a "Best Bets" segment and they tell you the record so far of all BB picks. But the one thing they fail to tell you is Units Won/Lost and I 100% GUARANTEE YOU they are deep in the Red since they give out heavily juiced plays all of the time and treat all losers as if they were -110 when I'd bet their losing plays average at least -125 if not more. I have Carpal Tunnel from Tweeting Doug K they need to maintain units Won/Lost as well as record. They never will because.......truth hurts

Most people fail miserably on the concept of Moneyline. Moneyline converts to a break-even %, but people think in terms of black/white. Props to anyone who can beat a Moneyline sport.

Who is the bigger trend finder? Ralphie Michaels, Marc Lawrence, or Big Al?

I would have to say that the common bettors loves to buy a pick with a 18-2 ATS trend....but they don't hear exactly how deep and hard they had to dig to find that trend.

No doubt, Sporty.

The newbies love the mechanical 18-2 trend until they learn about data-mining.

I remember talking to Big Al at the Stardust one night before a radio show and he told me, "Whatever you do, don't ask me about the players or coaches. I cannot name any of them"

Too funny.

The fucked up thing is that didn't Big Al win a few of those contests back in the day.
