Dirk looks great at +550. He has quick release and will be shooting set shots so less likely to tire out.

Howard should have won last year. The judges won't sqeeze him again, so I took Dwight.

no bets for me on this.... like futures these are complete suckers bets....

Now the people that disagree with me and won will try and say I'm wrong... however all who lost a considerable amount of cash will keep quiet.


The sportsbooks already won on these reagrdless of who wins.. bank it

I agree with ya. Somewhat at least. What's wrong with throwing a half unit on it though, having a cpl beers, and enjoying yourself while you're watching it? You have better odds to win than horses or dogs. At leasts its 4 competitors to choose from and not 10.

If you ever took the time to shop around, you'd realize that bargains are to be found in Futures. So easy to say they're sucker bets when you're too lazy to shop. Recently hit on NYG for NFC 20-1 and Colorado NL 75-1. Not bad for sucker bets.

Great, now lets hear from the mass of people who fell for NFL futures and lost money...

You presenting one or two examples of how somebody has found profit does not disprove what I said
