Week eight was an ugly affair. The writers ended up tied, but each missed most of his picks. It happens in the NFL.
| Week eight | Tie 7-7 |
| Season | Andy 67-51-1 |
Andy decided to go first this week. Here are the picks:
1) Andy: Steelers over Cowboys – (more…)
How bad have this site’s bets been this season? Each writer went 1-2-1 this week and it was, collectively, the second best week of 2020.
Take it for what it’s worth, folks. If you take these picks and bet against them, you’re probably going to win money. ** Past performance is not indicative of future results. … Well, it kind of is, but … legally it isn’t.
Here are the standings:
| Week 7 W/L | Week 7 $ | Season W/L | Season $ | Bankroll | |
| Tony | 1-2-1 | +$179 | 10-16-2 | -$1,825 | $8,175 |
| Andy | 1-2-1 | -$193 | 9-18-1 | -$6,491 | $3,509 |
So, while we believe there is no point in beating a dead horse, we’re going to continue to do so anyway.
Tony got his second win of the season last week, though both of these clowns forgot to take Aaron Jones out of their lineups. That oversight cost Andy not only here but in a couple other DFS contests where he probably cost himself a couple bucks. Lesson learned – doublecheck these lineups too.
Anyway, can Tony keep the rally going?
Here are the standings:
| Week 7 | Season | Total points | Point average | |
| Andy | 112.8 | 5-2 | 1030.06 | 147.2 |
| Tony | 131.7 | 2-5 | 889.0 | 127 |
And here are the week eight lineups: (more…)
It was closer last week, but Andy continues to pull away in the alternative picks contest. He should have asked for bigger terms than, well, none before the season started. He might have won a Subway lunch or something.
| Week seven | Andy 8-6 |
| Season | Andy 60-44-1 |
There are some interesting games this week. Even a few of those featuring crappy teams have interesting story lines attached to them. Here goes: (more…)
Andy’s picks have been top notch and he’s dominating the Zoneblitz DFS competition, but when it comes to bets he’s choking like a overzealous dog on an oversized bone.
Tony stayed close to even for a while, but he’s been struggling of late. Only hitting on his biggest bet last week kept him within striking distance of staying even.
So, in short, after a year of competence in 2019, they’ve returned to sucking. If you are in Vegas, we suggest doing the opposite of what they recommend – or just print out this part of the blog and use it in your bird cages, much as you used to with newsprint. … you know, the gray paper newspapers are printed on?
Right. So … staying on task …
| Week 6 W/L | Week 6 $ | Season W/L | Season $ | Bankroll | |
| Tony | 1-3 | -$765 | 9-14-1 | -$2,004 | $7,996 |
| Andy | 1-3 | -$1,673 | 8-16 | -$6,298 | $3,702 |
Andy
He didn’t double Tony’s score, but Andy did continue his DFS dominance in the sibling DFS competition. If you asked him, he’d probably say it doesn’t matter – and in reality, how much should it? Even with his abysmal record, he’s still only lost about $6 for the season.
But deep down it has to sting, doesn’t it? Maybe just a bit?
Here are the standings:
| Week 5 | Season | Total points | Point average | |
| Andy | 168.02 | 5-1 | 917.26 | 152.88 |
| Tony | 132.32 | 1-5 | 757.3 | 126.22 |
