#PlaybookSports Leave your ego at the door every morning, and just do some truly great work. Few things will make you feel better than a job brilliantly done.
- Chicago Cubs pitcher Cole Hamels is 15-1 in his last sixteen team-starts in August.
- Please say a prayer for my friend, Dave Malinsky, who is missing following a hike in Mount Charleston in Nevada. Dave and I have been friends and colleagues for over 40 years. We launched the Playbook together back in the day. A brilliant mind and an even better person.
- TO MY DEAR FRIEND DAVE COKIN: I am so sorry to hear the time is near. We grew up together in this industry with nothing but the utmost respect for one another, and that respect continues to this day. You are a pioneer and a visionary and should be proud of your
- OMG: I learned yesterday that I was honored to be nominated for the SPORTS GAMBLING HALL OF FAME - sghof.com Needless to say, it’s quite an honor, and I am humbled. This means either one of two things: my dedication to this industry has not gone unnoticed, or I
- The last two teams to win the Super Bowl - Philadelphia and New England - were the only two teams in the league with both a Top 10 ranked offense and defense. The Indianapolis Colts are the only team in the NFL playoffs this year with a Top 10 ranked offense and defense. #Colts
- A dear friend, Brian Blessing, has passed away and suddenly the world is a sadder place. He was a pro’s pro and a devout fan of Buffalo and all its teams. You can close your eyes and pray that he'll come back or, like me, open your eyes and instead see all he's left. RIP buddy.
GIF - REFLECTIONS: I lost my best friend in September and my sister in October. Sometimes memories sneak out of my eyes and roll down my cheeks.
- Replying to @realDonaldTrumpYou sure have. You've separated children from their parents, ridiculed disabled reporters, lied while trying to cover up your affairs, childishly attack and name-call anyone who disagrees with you and are a bonafide racist. You're a gem alright. You make con men look like angels
- When Saints won Super Bowl in 2009 they were a #1 seed with a 13-3 record. Their 3 losses were agasint the Bucs, Cowboys and Panthers. They are the #1 seed this year with a 13-3 record. The 3 losses this year were against the Bucs, Cowboys and Panthers. #WhoDatHistoryRepeats
- WHAT A JOKE: Ben Simmons requested a trade from the Sixers. He hasn’t played this season and will miss the Play-In playoffs. He's said to be suffering from mental fatigue. He's played in less than 40% of his team's games in the L2Y and made $100M. What's wrong with this picture?
- From my well-oiled machine: NFL Game One division dogs who did not own a winning record the previous season are 22-4-1 ATS since 1992. With that Buffalo, Denver, Green Bay, NY Giants, and Washington all fill the bill this week.
- Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo is 22-0 SU and 16-4-2 ATS in the NCAA Tournament as a pick or favorite when coming off a SU and ATS win.
- Quarterback coach guru Terry Shea insists Northwestern's Clayton Thorson is the best QB in this year's draft. Thorson had a dynamic day in his Pro Day workout today. Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald has never had a player selected in the first 3 rounds of the draft. Stay tuned.
