2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 16

Did you make the Super Bowl in your fantasy playoffs?

You are definitely one lucky guy if you made it to the championship game this season. There have been so many backup QBs and just oddball injuries to star fantasy players.

It’s always fun to go back to your fantasy draft this time of the year and look to see where certain players were drafted. There’s a chance that three or four players on your roster weren’t even drafted at all. It’s definitely been an odd year, but it’s been fun.

Can the Cleveland Browns stop QB Lamar Jackson or will his fantasy owners cruise to a championship?

The Sports Gaining Some Traction Again

There are some sports that are always going to lead the way. The likes of soccer, football, and ice hockey are always going to be firm favorites in our great country. But those are the ones that are getting all of the limelight, and they’re on three out of the many that we could have mentioned. But what that tends to mean, is that there are some sports that get left in the shadows, with some even referring to them as not real sport, just because they’re not one of the more infamous options to watch. But luckily, we feel like the underdogs are gaining a little bit more traction at the minute, with more and more people are finding themselves interested in what the sport has to offer. Whether looking at this from a spectators point of view, or if you’re looking to get into a hobby that isn’t as mainstream, there should be one below for you. So, if you keep on reading, we’ll show you some of the sports that are gaining a little bit more traction, and how you can get into them if that’s what you’re looking to do.

2019 NFL Week 15 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-4-2 against the spread last week.

The playoff picture is becoming clear now that we are just three weeks away from the end of the regular season. It appears that the NFC East is the weakest link in the NFL. The winner of the division may only have a record of 9-7, but that’s only if the Eagles or Cowboys win the rest of their games (which is unlikely).

Can the Patriots get back to winning or can the Bengals score the upset on Sunday?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 15 of the 2019 NFL season.

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 15

After the first week of the playoffs, are you in a good position or do you need a miracle to come back from a large deficit?

If you’re in a good position, I wouldn’t tweak your roster much this week unless one of your starters has a difficult match-up. If you’re losing headed into this week, it could be time for a hail mary. Could it be time for a complete roster overhaul or will a small roster tweak be the answer to your prayers.

Archery, like any other sport, requires a lot of time and dedication to get it right. There is so much skill involved, and a lot to learn.

2019 NCAA Football – Conference Championship Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-14 against the spread last week. I really struggled with my Friday game picks. I actually went 1-6 on that day. I bounced back on Saturday, but that was too large of a hole to climb out.

There are only ten games on the docket this week. We have conference championship games, which should be fun to watch and usually very hard to predict. You could end up with some possible College Playoff teams that overlook their games this week and get upset.

We have a possible play-in game scenario in the SEC Championship game. Both teams are in the top-four and the winner will most definitely make the Playoff field of four.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick EVERY college football games against the spread in Week 15 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (December 7th, 2019).

2019 NFL Week 14 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-7 against the spread last week.

We have a full slate of games every week from this point forward. It’s just more opportunities for gamblers to try to break even or fall farther in the hole. I’m in the black for the year and I’m going to play it a bit conservative this week and not lay down any above average amounts. I dipped into my profits a bit on Black Friday.

There are a few marquee games this week with Baltimore facing Buffalo and Kansas City traveling to New England. The outcomes of both of those games will definitely have an effect on the AFC playoff race.

Can the 49ers keep the game close against the Saints?

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 14

Now that we are in the fantasy playoffs, consistency is key. You can’t go in there with a dud quarterback or a tight end that just doesn’t get enough targets.

There are plenty of players out there that are owned in way too many leagues. They are being outperformed by players with almost single-digit ownership. It’s time to cut bait with those players and pick up a player with more playing time.

Did you make the playoffs in your fantasy league?

Can Eric Paschall Win NBA Rookie of the Year?

Coming into the season, Zion Williamson, Ja Morant and R.J. Barrett were the overwhelming picks to be the Rookie of the Year this year. I didn’t see anyone pick any other rookie as a possible winner. I’m picked Barrett this preseason as he looked pretty damn good.

Since the start of the season, there have been a handful of other rookies that have shot up the leaderboard. Miami guard Tyler Herro, Memphis small forward Brandon Clarke and Golden State power forward Eric Paschall have thrown their name in the running. Things could change once Zion Williamson debuts, but as of early December, he has yet to appear in the regular season.

Can second-round pick Paschall win the Rookie of the Year?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 14 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 16-9 against the spread with my college football picks last week.

This is the last week with a full slate of college football games. Next week is full of conference championship games and the yearly Army/Navy game.

Rivalry games can be tough to handicap. You can have all the data in the world, but sometimes a bad team can muster up enough big plays to defeat their hated rivals. Those are impossible to predict, but that’s the fun of rivalry week.

Can Ohio State chock up another win against the team up north?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 14 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (November 30th, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2019 NFL Week 13 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-4 against the spread last week.

I’ve historically done very well against the spread on Thanksgiving. I had a streak of three-straight perfect Thanksgivings until it was broken last year. I feel pretty good about my Turkey Day picks this year.

I wanted to get my NFL picks out a little earlier than normal since there are three Thursday games this week…and I need to get an early start on my college football picks too.

Can the Niners stop Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson?

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 13

We have full strength teams from this point until the end of the season, but it’s still important to look at match-ups. Even some of the better players in fantasy can run into a bad match-up.

You may begin to start having some tough decisions every week. That flex spot could be a hard one to pick. Bye weeks suck, but they can make decisions much easier since you don’t have many options. Don’t stress too much about it. I tend to stress a little, but once I make a decision, I set my lineup and forget it.
