WE NEED TO BOUNCE BACK QUICKLY TONIGHT
10,000 Dime College Football Move
Arizona at Toledo
INTERNET BREAKDOWN OF THE FIRST 8 MONTHS OF 2010
Eddie Roman here and with 8 months and two days now completed in 2010 and Football back in our lives for the next 5 months, I felt it was a good time to let the world know exactly what I've done this year.
January - We won 3 of the 4 weeks and hit a 2 team NBA Reverse late in the month to grab the winning month. Only BCS Bowl loss was Oregon in the Rose Bowl and that also happened to be my last College Football Loss as we swept the last week of the season.
February - Won all 4 weeks of the month but went 0-4, -99,000 Dimes on Sunday's alone. However, the other 24 days of the month we were red hot, netting 156,500 dimes in that time. We lost the Super Bowl but we were red hot in college hoops to grab our second straight winning month.
March - Bitter Sweet. We lose 9 games in college hoops that we had second half leads in, 6 of which we were covering with under 4 minutes to go. Those 6 losses alone account for a swing of 165,000 dimes against us. The last day of the month, we needed a 3-0 sweep to have a winning month and Dallas rallied from 14 points down in the NBA to get us our third straight winning month. A little redemption there for sure. 3 winning weeks and we pull out the winning month.
April - We win the first two weeks of the month but week 3 is a nightmare and it ruins the month. All total, we end up winning 3 of the 5 weeks with the carry over week from March but that third week did us in. We also lost the National Title Game, using Duke -4 in the First Half as Butler made a 3 with 13 seconds to go to get us off the number. Our first losing month of the year.
May - Best month of the year as everything goes right, from Baseball to our red hot run in the NBA Playoffs. 4 out 5 winning weeks with the carry over week and another winning month as we just did everything right.
June - A Carbon Copy of April. We win the first 2 weeks including the first 3 games of the NBA Finals but then week 3 struck. I made bad calls, we didn't really suffer any bad breaks and that week cost us a winning month as I close the NBA Finals 0-4. We end up winning 3 of the 4 weeks but week 3 costs us a winning month, just like April.
July - On the surface, it looks like a nightmare and end results are all that counts but if you dig a little deeper, you see 3 MLB Games that we were winning in the 8th inning costing us a winning month. We lose all 3 of those games and they account for a 115,000 dime swing against us. All total, we have our worst month of the year, winning just 2 weeks.
August - Certainly looked bleak and it looked as if another bad break was going to cost us a winning month. We had Pittsburgh in the first half over the NY Giants, first and goal at the 1 late in the half but they fail to score a point on three plays and that results in a 56,000 dime swing against us however, I close the month winning 10 straight bets and we post another winning month. 2 out of 4 winning weeks.
So there it is. Now, if you were on board with me for the 3rd weeks of April, June or August, or the month of July, you probably hate me but such is the life of an Internet Handicapper. However, if you've been on board with me all year, you are up 120,650 Dimes for the year. It's not always pretty, it's not always easy but for yet another year, we will head into football season up good money. That's what it's all about folks.
Not many Internet Handicappers can give you a breakdown like that. To be honest, not many keep their numbers the way I do either, overall records, winning weeks, profits / losses for the month. I must be doing something right I guess.
