So, like many of you, I love thinking about games, probabilities and market inefficiencies. And, like many of you, I have profound reservations with regard to the sports betting conquest of America.
With that in mind, I’m proud to announce a new sponsor at House of Strauss: Sportspredict.com. The goal of my new advertiser is to host a place for sports predictions that isn’t gambling. There are no bets made here, but there are picks. The idea is to compete and demonstrate predictive ability absent insidious financial downside. I encourage HoS subscribers to join the NFL picks pool this season, free of charge, and compete for a prize (to be determined later). If nothing else, you can demonstrate NFL intellectual superiority over an idiot who liked Dallas’ Micah Parsons trade. Oh, and access code is: HOS.
Steve is the founder of this company but I wouldn’t have him on just due to that. He’s also a House of Strauss subscriber, and lurker in the BCC Chat. Put simply, he’s one of us. He’s prone to novel theories of his own and believes that a lot of money is left on the table by our most prominent sports franchises. In this pod we discuss topics that include, but aren’t limited to…
The appeal of a non gambling sports prediction site
What makes for a good predictor?
My two NFL picks in Week 1, and the market inefficiencies targeted with them
NFL coaches are still committing 4th down malpractice
Major college coaches are still committing “Go for 2” malpractice
Steve’s “Fourth and Smart” idea that could revolutionize special teams play
NBA teams are declining in “2 for 1” usage
Steve loves the BCC Chat
