Tips to Help Find the Best Deals on Black Friday

It’s officially Fall and Pumpkin Spice Lattes are now our country’s preferred beverage of choice. It’s only a matter of time before it’s time to tackle to albatross of Black Friday shopping. 

Black Friday shopping can be extremely stressful with people crammed shoulder-to-shoulder in long lines just to get inside the door and another line just to check out at a register. Wouldn’t it be great to find a way to avoid all that hassle and still get the best deal?

Do Your Research

There are a number of Black Friday-themed websites that usually list Black Friday flyers from all the major retailers. It can be rather daunting to glean through them all, so just chose the stores you think would sell the items you’re looking for this Christmas shopping season. Also, look up Best Black Friday Deals on Google and you can usually find lists of some of the other sales from stores you may have overlooked. I would suggest Slickdeals.net as a nice resource for the best sales and coupon codes for Black Friday 2019.

2019 NCAA Football – Week 5 Betting Picks Against Spread

2019 College Football Picks Against the Spread Week 5 NCAA USC Trojans song girls cheerleadersI went 14-10-1 against the spread last week.

The college football landscape looks and feels a little different now that we saw the outcome of the Georgia/Notre Dame and Wisconsin/Michigan games. We can probably write off Michigan being any sort of Big Ten championship contender after that poor performance.

We are also making a shortlist of potential Heisman candidates. No one is running away with it yet, but conference play is just getting started. We should be able to cross off a few guys after this week.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 5 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (September 28th,, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2019 NFL Week 4 – Betting Picks Against Spread

jacoby brissett dotted 2019I finished 10-6 against the spread with my picks last week.

I’m really liking some of the nail biting fourth quarters this season. There have been so many point spreads covered late in games. It just didn’t happen much last year. 

There were two 20+ point spreads last week (only one covered), but there aren’t any near that level this week. The Dolphins are huge underdogs (again), but they are only sixteen-point underdogs against the Chargers this week.

Can rookie quarterbacks Kyler Murray and Gardner Minshew lead upsets this weekend?

Was Daniel Jones just a one-week wonder?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 4 of the 2019 NFL season.

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 4

daniel jones dottedThe usual top fantasy quarterbacks aren’t having the best years. Most have been bitten by the injury bug or overall ineptitude. Backups have risen to the challenge and we have guys like Giants QB Daniel Jones and Panthers QB Kyle Allen killing it in fantasy last week. 

Bye weeks start in Week 4, but luckily the two teams on bye aren’t stacked with fantasy studs. The San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets are the two teams sitting this week out.

Which young backup quarterback will have the best fantasy output this weekend: Kyle Allen, Daniel Jones or Gardner Minshew?

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 4 of the 2019 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of QB Daniel Jones of the New York Giants.

The Best Potential Quarterbacks in the 2020 NFL Draft Class

Justin-Herbert-2020-NFL-Draft-Quarterback-ClassMost scouts thought the 2019 NFL Draft lacked the quarterback depth of the previous year’s draft. QB Kyler Murray should be a good quarterback, but there were huge question marks with the other first-round quarterbacks selected.

The 2020 NFL Draft should be stacked with quarterback talent. There are a few underclassmen that could hold out for another year, but there will be enough QBs in this coming year’s draft to fulfill the never-ending need for youth at that position in the NFL.

We will list ten of the best quarterbacks who can potentially be in the 2020 NFL Draft class and a few honorable mentions that could be diamonds in the rough. We are only a few weeks into the college football season, so a lot can change until the draft in May, but this is a nice primer to help you get to know this year’s quarterback class.

2019 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

2019 College Football Picks Against the Spread Week 4 NCAA Wisconsin Badgers cheerleadersI started off strong this year and have stumbled a bit the last two weeks. I’m still over .500 on the year with the conference schedule starting for most teams this week.

There are some big Big Ten and SEC games this week. The Wisconsin/Michigan game is probably the marquee contest in the Big Ten this week. Michigan haven’t looked like the usual juggernaut and could be prime for a beating. In the SEC, Texas A&M/Auburn contest will be the one to watch.

2019 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Saquon Barkley dottedI finished 8-8 against the spread with my picks last week.

The slew of quarterback injuries have affected the point spreads quite a bit. On top of that, there’s a huge point spread in every Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots games. There are actually two point spreads this week greater than 21 points. That usually doesn’t happen until like Week 16, at the earliest.

Can the Patriots and Cowboys both cover a massive 21+ point spreads this week?

2019-College-Football-Picks-Against-the-Spread-Week-3-NCAA-Iowa-Hawkeyes-cheerleadersI started off strong this year and but just went 12-12-1 against the spread last week.
