This afternoon on CNBC they had the CEO of FanDuel on for an interview. They talked about legalized sports betting creating more fan engagement and people being more tuned into what the talking heads are saying leading up to a game. Don't use their predictions! You will lose money. Put some homework into whatever you are doing. Learn the odds, learn about favorable situations, follow certain systems, etc but do not listen to the so-called experts. As two examples I remember Herm Edwards giving lots of opinions breaking down his predictions for each game and then it went nowhere near how he said it would. By the way, his NFL record was 54-74. I've also listened to Jimmy Johnson give his opinions breaking down his countless predictions only to see the game go a total opposite direction as well. His record was 80-64...better than Edwards. Then you have to ask, how did their predictions do against the spread? How did they do against the over/under? My point is these folks are not professional gamblers, their information should be taken with a grain of salt. They are on TV to create hype and entertain you; thats it!
Don't be lazy, do your homework!
