Some guy is absolutly destroying the NFL this year
 
This has been brought up on a few sports boards and I thought it may be interesting here. Someone in a Yahoo league is killing the NFL ATS. I'm not sure how often the spreads move on yahoo, but this is impressive nonetheless.

12/13 and 13/13 back to back, worst week this season at 7-7. Much better than variance.

Yeah, you never ever see four or five standard deviations from the mean. Never happens. Ever. I think 3.5 StDv from the norm is where the bell curve actually hits 0.

He's just picking winners, not vs the spread.

I think Roughrider39 starting off 15-0 in the Hilton contest this year is more impressive.

i was all ready to start following, until i saw a) these are just straight up, and b) there are a bunch of people with 88 and 87 just behind him in the standings...

pretty good job, so far...

I know a guy who has gone 140-36 on his last 2 seasons of even $$$$ bets, including 10-15 multiple leg bets! He even went 31-0-5 one weekend! He is obv god's gift to handicapping.

I did this well(probably a bit better) on yahoo pickem a few years back. I'm no football expert by any means, it was a tiny bit of research and a chunk of luck.
Of course, it did me zero good, since I had no money to actually place any real wagers.

That is why I never enter large ATS tournaments - a monkey can win any bunch of weeks.

You are not rewarded by winning 60% every year

This thread is silly.
It's not even against the spread.
Even it was: out of the zillions of people playing that thing it's not THAT ridiculous to pick 24/25.

Think about the people who successfully pick 7 out of 7 numbers between 1-50 to win the lottery.
Their 'success' at doing this doesn't really make them more likely to be able to do it again either.

Really long odds...but it's still just variance.

bob, u r dum, the guys who have won the lotto TWICE are obviously skilled at predicting little ball bounces...
