The Best Alternatives To Cable For Watching Live Sports

So many people have a cable subscription that is costing way too much and they never really use it, especially as most of the best TV is on streaming services like Netflix these days. But they don’t cancel their subscription because they don’t want to miss out on sports. You get a lot of great sports packages on cable services and if you want to keep up with all of the games, you probably don’t want to cancel it. But cable isn’t the only way that you can watch sports these days and there are plenty of ways that you can still keep up without paying over the odds for it. These are some of the best alternatives to cable for watching live sports.

The Best Potential Quarterbacks in the 2020 NFL Draft Class

Most 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

I 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.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 4 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (September 21st,, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2019 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I 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?

Can rookie quarterbacks Daniel Jones and Gardner Minshew lead their teams to covers in Week 3?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 3 of the 2019 NFL season.

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 3

The flu was brutal this year. I made it out the other side and ready to make this week’s fantasy football sit/start picks for Week 3.

Chances are that you may have a different quarterback starting this week than the one you drafted a couple weeks ago. Injuries and overall inefficiency has turned the position into one of the most added/dropped in all leagues.

Are you in the market for a new starting quarterback? Should you go with Mason Rudolph, Daniel Jones or Gardner Minshew in Week 3?

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 3 of the 2019 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of QB Mason Rudolph of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

2019 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

I started off strong this year and but just went 12-12-1 against the spread last week.

The key to staying hot while betting college football game is to not get too bogged down on the last week’s games. It’s important to stick with your own personal rankings and know when to bail on a team. Well, after the first couple weeks of the season, it is about time to think about jumping off a bandwagon. There won’t be much value on teams that are perceived to be unbeatable. You may have another week or two to ride them before the value disappears.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 3 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (September 14th,, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2019 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

The first week of the 2019 NFL regular season is in the book. I finished 8-8 against the spread with my picks. I wasn’t burned too much by late-game comebacks as much as most as my picks mostly benefited from the late-game heroics last week.

A few young players had breakout games last week. Ravens QB Lamar Jackson had a perfect passer rating and shut up critics that he can only scramble. Can he continue the same success against the Cardinals this week?

Can the Patriots cover a massive -18.5 point spread against the brutal Dolphins?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 2 of the 2019 NFL season.

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 2

I am battling one hell of a flu bug this week. I actually started this post on Tuesday and had to quit due to everything spinning.

Now that I am feeling a little better, I’ve still only eaten saltine crackers since Monday, let’s crank out some fantasy football and betting posts!

I had a few studs and duds with my picks last week. I’m feeling better now that I’ve seen what roles from of the new players played for their teams in Week 1.

Can Gardner Minshew become a stud for the Jaguars?

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 2 of the 2019 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of QB Gardner Minshew of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

2019 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

I started off strong this year and went 17-7-1 against the spread last week.

There aren’t a ton of marquee games this week. College football athletic directors know that most people are more geared up for the NFL season to begin this weekend. There are a ton of games where FBS teams take on easy wins against a small FCS schools.

There were a few notable upsets last week, but all the major players made it out of their games unscathed. Can Wisconsin and Michigan cover their huge point spreads this weekend?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 2 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (September 7th,, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2019 NFL Week 1 – Betting Picks Against Spread

The first week of the 2019 NFL regular season is here!

I finished last season over .500 with my NFL picks against the spread. I hope to continue my streak of profitable NFL picks this season.

This year’s rookie class of quarterbacks isn’t as good as last year’s crop. There were so many rookie quarterbacks that saw action early last season, but it appears that Arizona’s QB Kyler Murray will be the lone rookie to start in Week 1.

I love a lot of the favorites this week. I almost feel wrong for making so many ‘chalk’ picks, but I still found a few underdogs picks to sink my teeth into.

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 1 of the 2019 NFL season.

2019 NFL Fantasy Football Start/Sit – Week 1

I am really looking forward to fantasy football this year.

It seems like half the league has exciting young quarterbacks. Also, more running backs are becoming assets in the passing game. It makes for a more entertaining fantasy football experience.

A handful of past fantasy studs like Le’Veon Bell and Antonio Brown find themselves on new teams. Will either guy continue their top-tier fantasy production or will their fantasy stock diminish?

Here is our Fantasy Football Sit/Start for Week 1 of the 2019 NFL season…and enjoy our awesome MS Paint masterpiece of RB Phillip Lindsay of the Denver Broncos.

‘All Out’ Was Another Step in the Right Direction for AEW

All Elite Wrestling officially put on their third-ever event during Labor Day weekend. They crowned their first Heavyweight champion and set the table for their first women’s title holder.

‘All Out’ was one of the most anticipated wrestling shows to happen since their ‘Double or Nothing’ pay-per-view during Memorial Day weekend. The show sold out within minutes, even if there were rumors that some tickets bypassed consumers and went straight to the secondary market (the rumors have been unfounded).

There were a few hiccups that happened that were out of their control just days before the show. They lost one of the wrestlers in the co-main event when Jon Moxley announced that he was battling a reoccurring staph infection in his elbow and had to pull out of his advertised match with Kenny Omega. AEW wasted no time and filled the void with PAC, which was an equivalent talent for the spot. Also, Fenix of the Lucha Brothers tweaked his knee the previous weekend and threatened his participation, but he battled through the injury and was able to wrestle The Young Bucks in a banger of a match.
