British Open Aftermath |
|
John Ryan Jul 19, 2010 |
Ryan’s RANT
The British Open was another refreshing Major as it showed there are other golfers in this world worthy to be contenders and worthy to win the Majors. Yes, Sunday was a sleeper of sorts, but for the avid golfing fan, the dominance that Oosthuizen showed was no less dominant than Tiger’s early wins. Yet, the question was not focused on how many Majors this young man may win, but whet ...

John Ryan Jul 12, 2010 |
Reds are coming off a horrid series against the Phillies getting swept with the first three games ending in Phillies walk-off wins and the Sunday finale ending in a 1-0 Phillies win. First time since 1913 that the Phillies won back to back games by a 1-0 score. Rollins had both RBI’s in these two games and the last time that happened was in 1971 and was done by the Twins Braun. More evidence that ...

College Hoops sport a 10-1 ATS mark in 15* Conference Games of the Month entering Tuesday night action.
We were certainly feeling well at the half of the AFC Championship game, but the momentum had turned decidedly in favor of the Colts. We lost that 25* game and now stand at 5-2 ATS with 10* plays, 3-1 ATS with 15* plays and 1-1 ATS with 25* plays in the NFL ...

What a great run we have enjoyed in football overall. NFL plays are not on a 5-2 ATS run with 10* releases, 2-1 ATS with 15* releases and won the 25* AFC Titan Game of the Year on the Jets in a game we stated that the Jets had an excellent shot at winning the game.

As the Saints continue to dominate – nailed MNF 10* Titan on the Saints and the 7* Titan UNDER for a nice big time parlay winner – and the Colts continue to remain unbeaten, the media focus is justly focused on these two teams. This week however, is a significant week for the NFC contenders and how these games will shape the play-off picture.

US Open Play for September 10th.
In the Men’s quarter final I like a play on Fernando Gonzaolez over Hadal at +250. I also like 2 other proposition wagers taking Fernandez to win 3-1 at _725 and also to win 3-2 at +725. I think it is very fair to expect that if Fernando is to win, it will not be in three straight sets over Nadal. I also believe that Nadal expended a lot of energy and with that tr ...

NFLX is off to a fantastic start posting a 10-1 ATS mark. Just Monday night, I released a 10* Titan play on the Jets, who covered ATS despite having 2 quick 6’s scored on them by the Baltimore defense. This fact, is just one of the many reasons my Ai Simulator will grade a play. Even in a worst case scenario, the graded play will still have a high percentage probability of w ...

Meaningful Pitching Analysis |

John Ryan Jun 15, 2009 |
On a short Monday card let’s take a look at Bullpen stats and rankings in MLB. in my opinion and based on solid research, bettors often overlook the importance of the bullpen when making a bet. One mistake is that they assume that the starter will continue his 3 game trend into the current start. That many times does not occur and when a strong starter struggle the bullpen is often times the reaso ...
