Fantasy Hockey Sleeper Picks for 2011-12

If you've played fantasy hockey (or any fantasy sport) for long, you know that you don't typically win a season based on those first few rounds of picking superstars. For the most part, those picks all even out. It's the sleepers that can take an ordinary team and propel it to greatness. Finding that hidden gem, late in the draft, that finishes in the top 10 can make all the difference in the world. So what are you looking for as you scan your eye deep down the list of last year's stats? A few factors come to mind:

1. Young, rising stars who are being promoted into a bigger role. For many players, it's simply a matter of opportunity. Consider Claude Giroux last season. No one doubted the talent. He just had too many stars to leapfrog to get to 20 minutes a game. When the hole opened up, he seized it.

2. Down and back again. Some players saw a decline in recent years, due to injury or other factors. When they're set to return, they can often be overlooked and undervalued. This can also ring true for players who left to play in the KHL for a time and are now returning to the NHL.

3. Young guns who peaked early, then slid a bit. Often times, a rookie will burst out of the gate, then level off in their 2nd or 3rd season. We tend to write these players off by their fourth year, when in reality, that's just the time when we should expect them to hit their prime. Here is where you can find some real value.

GOALIES

Tuukka Rask (BOS)
Even in the midst of Thomas's superhuman season, Rask managed to find his way into 29 games last season. That shows how serious the Bruins are about getting him playing time. Add in the extended playoff run, and Boston will turn to him more and more in 2011-12. Should Thomas come down to earth, or sustain another injury, Rask will instantly propel to a top 10 option. Don't be afraid to draft him, as he'll get enough starts either way to warrant the selection.

Curtis McElhinney (PHO)
With Bryzgalov gone, the starting gig in the desert is completely up for grabs. McElhinney seems like a fair bet to edge out LaBarbera and Smith for the early starts. This one won't be decided until the first puck drops. If you're looking for a late-round gamble in a deep league desperate for goalie starts, throw McElhinney on your list.

DEFENSE

Jonathan Blum (NAS)
Blum was a first round pick in 2007, but has (and will continue to) struggled to earn top minutes on the crowded Nashville defense. He has the skills to put up big numbers. He just needs the opportunity to make it happen. He could be a good sleeper to keep an eye this season.

Alex Edler (VAN)
Edler missed the 2nd half of the season with a back injury. He returned in the playoffs, and while he didn't produce much offensively, the important thing is that he showed himself to have fully recovered. With Ehrhoff out of town, the Canucks will be counting on Edler to play top minutes. Expect 40+ points from him in 2011-12.

Ryan Whitney (EDM)
Whitney started last season on a tear, with 27 points in 35 games. A severe ankle injury ended his season prematurely. Most fantasy owners have probably forgotten about him at this point. He should be ready for the start of the season. Look for Whitney to be the lone source of hope on the Edmonton defense this season once again.

OFFENSE

Tyler Kennedy (PIT)
With all the big names that wear a sweater in Pittsburgh, it's easy to overlook the 5'11'' winger who wears #48. Penguin fans know that he's the one thing that kept the offense alive when the plague hit last spring. Kennedy has never passed on a chance to shoot the puck, and given enough time on the wing with Crosby or Malkin, he has a good shot at cracking 30 goals sometime soon.

Vincent Lecavalier (TB)
Hard to paint a $10 million dollar center as a sleeper, but his declining point totals have him falling out of sight for fantasy players. Down the stretch and into the playoffs, he looked a bit more like the Vinnie of old. He registered 17 points in the last 14 regular season games. He also played above a point a game through the long playoff run last spring.

James Neal (PIT)
Neal was a shocking disappointment upon arriving in Pittsburgh last spring. The goal scorer in Dallas suddenly went dry with the Pens. Perhaps the summer will be good for his psyche and he'll start things fresh in the fall. Should he find significant time along side Malkin and/or Crosby, the theory is he can be a lethal sniper. He should be available late in the draft and is worth a shot.

Tyler Seguin (BOS)
There's a chance that Seguin won't even make the team this fall. There's a better chance he'll be a significant fantasy factor by the end of the season. He showed flashes of brilliance in the playoffs that justify his #2 overall selection in 2010. His versatility will help his cause as well, since he can slide into the center or wing position. With Horton and Savard still reeling from concussions, it seems likely that Seguin can fill a scoring void for Boston this season.

Paul Stastny (COL)
Stastny's totals in 2010-11 were disappointing after the standard his set for himself in his first few seasons. He dropped from 79 points to 57, yet he actually scored more goals last year. His low point total will cause many owners to undervalue him at this year's draft. He could easily turn it on and crack 80 points this season. Prime sleeper candidate to target mid-draft.

A few other guys who will be undervalued based on last season's performance, but are hard to paint as "sleepers" to consider as you draft:

  • Nicklas Backstrom (WAS)

  • Pavel Datsyuk (DET)

  • Ryan Getzlaf (ANA)

  • Ilya Kovalchuk (NJ)

How to Handicap Football Like The Pros

Hello my name is Chris Liput professional handicapper with Fast Actin Handicappin. We provide pro and college football picks for the sports investor. This is a good article I found on the Coaches corner website and thought it was worth sharing with those who like to bet or do there own football gambling picks. I always recommend hiring a handicapping service such as Fast Actin Handicappin. Handicapping football takes a lot of time. But if you have free time, and don't want to pay for a service then here our some tips from the below article that may help you. Enjoy the read below.

It's Friday evening, and you've resigned yourself to some "serious handicapping" before your big football weekend. Said handicapping consists of an hour or two of studying the past week's injuries and line moves, and the past month's trends. You allow time for intermittent snack breaks and other unexpected disturbances, but when you sit back down in front of your newspaper/computer/sports weekly, you're all business.

Fast forward to Sunday night. After watching your games and highlight shows, you ask yourself over and over, "What went wrong? I put in some quality handicapping time, and was confident in my wagering. Why am I only at 40 per cent?"

If the above scenario sounds even remotely familiar, be assured that you are not alone. You are a part-time handicapper with unrealistic expectations of yielding huge profits. Handicapping NFL and college football is an exercise in discipline and time management. To put it plainly, you reap what you sow. If you've put in an hour of handicapping for the week, your results will reflect that. Some handicappers feel that cramming is the best approach: spending an entire evening studying all available info and stats. However, the most successful method is to build a schedule around your work and family obligations, allowing yourself a substantial amount of uninterrupted handicapping time each day.

On Monday of each week, your timetable should include reading full accounts of the past Saturday's college games and Sunday's NFL games. Your local newspaper's brief summaries won't cut it. Online resources provide full play-by-plays of each game, which will give you vital information on a given team's performance, regardless of the final score. Monday should be spent exclusively on bringing yourself up to speed on everything that's happened during the past two days.

Tuesday's agenda should be dedicated to looking at the stats and numbers from games played, in addition to studying relevant trends. Pay particular attention to turnovers forced and committed, and to rushing and passing yards.

Mid-week, occupy yourself with reading quotes from coaches and players, which will give you an idea of how a certain team is doing both mentally and physically. The NFL's injury report is usually made on Wednesday. Be cautious though, because some teams are more forthcoming with injuries, while others can be somewhat deceptive. Midweek articles can also be very valuable. Gain insight into a team's upcoming performance based on comments made by coaches and players.

Your Thursday schedule should include checking out line moves. Factor in injuries, illnesses, and suspensions, as well as public opinion based on hunches. If, by early in the day, you're not feeling confident about the evening college game, save your time and money for the upcoming weekend games.

By Friday, you should be down to tying up loose ends, while remaining up-to-date on any last-minute injuries and line moves. By now, you should feel confident in your picks and wagering amounts.

On Saturday and Sunday, be sure to watch as many games and game highlights as you can. No amount of stats or articles can replace an actual eyewitness account of how a team played.

By following a strict daily schedule for handicapping NFL and college football, you should see a definite improvement in your wagering revenue. Handicapping is hard work, and very time-consuming, but if you resist the so-called "short-cuts" and put in a significant amount of studying time, you won't find yourself shaking your head on a Sunday night, wondering, "What went wrong?"

This is also the reason why many gamblers or bettors find football as one of the best games for sports betting. For years, many people have gained profits through football betting. They have earned extra money and they have enjoyed their favorite game. If you love football and you want to try your luck on football betting here are some tips for you to get a winning college and pro football picks.

Actually, winning in football betting is not just all about luck. You also need to think and evaluate some things. For instance, you need to assess the results of the previous season of a certain football league. Which teams were able to reach the quarter finals, semi finals and the finals? You may also want to research about each team. Knowing if there are new players or if the star player of a particular team will not play in the season may help you assess each team's chances of winning. By researching on many aspects of the league, teams and players, you will know which team is stronger than the other and you will have a better prediction of the games and league.

Getting winning college and pro football picks can be very difficult. If you are a beginner, you may opt to use handicapping services. It may cost you some bucks but if you get it from reputable sites, you will surely make huge profits. Getting a good and reliable handicapping service is one of the secrets that can make you grow your betting investments. Make sure to choose a handicapping service carefully. Avoid scamming handicappers. Reading reviews written by other bettors may help you find a reliable handicapping service.

Most handicapping services are based on great amount of information. The handicapping services will research if there are old players who are injured and cannot play this season, if there are new players, etc. If you do not want to spend any cent on handicapping services, you may opt to do this research by yourself. However, this may need a lot of time.

Research is the best key to getting the winning college and pro football picks. However, you also need to have the skills for money management in sports betting. Even if you do not have the best football picks but if you know how to manage your money very well, you will surely gain profit and will not lose a great amount of money. Make sure to place same amount of wagers in all games and do not bet it all in one game. You will surely get a lot of profit from football betting if you have a good betting system combined with a good handicapper.

Medicus Driver - Is the Medicus Driver a Legal Golf Club?

The Medicus Driver is the best selling golf training aid ever. The Medicus Driver, along with the Medicus 5-iron, and Medicus 7-iron have a huge fan following among all golfers, both amateur and professional. The fact that they're hittable golf swing trainers gives them even more appeal versus other golf training aids.

I've seen many golfers over the years use Medicus golf clubs at the driving range. I've even seen golfers pull out their Medicus Driver as a way to groove their swing on the golf course, as they wait to take their next tee shot. Many golfers wonder though, "Is it legal to carry any of the Medicus dual hinge clubs in your golf bag?"

In a word, the answer is NO. Let me repeat myself, the answer is NO. The Medicus dual hinge golf clubs are not legal to use during a round of golf, per the rules of golf set by the USGA.

As we've seen in so far in 2010, knowing the rules of golf is important. 2010 has been an unusual year in golf. With Tiger being off his game this year, it seems that the whole golf world has been turned upside down. This year has been the year of the rules violations. In fact, several notable rules violations have taken place in just the last year alone.

In the past year, we have seen a startling lack of judgment on the part of many very well known professional and amateur golfers. Notable rules violations just this year include:

1. Dustin Johnson grounding his club in a "sand trap," causing a two stroke penalty. This caused him to miss the playoff for the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits.
2. Jim Furyk failing to wake up due to a dead cell phone battery, missing his tee time for the Barclays Pro-Am. The result was tournament disqualification. 
3. Julie Inkster using a weighted doughnut during the LPGA Safeway Classic. This penalty resulted in disqualification.
4. Jerry Rice (NFL Hall of Famer) had his caddy use a range finder during a Nationwide Tournament. The result - You guessed it, tournament disqualification.

While the Dustin Johnson and Jim Furyk violations were more talked about at the water cooler, for our purposes the two examples of rules violations that apply to the Medicus are the Julie Inkster and Jerry Rice disqualifications.

Julie Inkster, an LPGA Hall of Famer, was disqualified from the LPGA Safeway Classic for using a weighted doughnut on her 9-iron to keep loose, as there was a 30 minute wait on the number 10 hole. Using the weighted doughnut is fine if you're hacking around on a Sunday with your friends. We've all been there. You're in a groove, feeling good, and then you get stuck in a golf cart traffic jam, usually at a par 3. You want to keep loose, to keep that groove going. When you're playing in a tournament though, the USGA's Rules of Golf are in full effect. Remember, if you're playing in a tournament, you must read the rules.

So what makes the Medicus Driver an illegal golf club? The Medicus Driver, Medicus 5-iron, and Medicus 7-iron all violate USGA Rule 14-3. Rule 14-3: Artificial Devices, Unusual Equipment and Unusual Use of Equipment specifies that the penalty for breaking this rule isn't one stroke or two strokes. The penalty is disqualification. 

To read the full rule, visit the USGA's official website here: http://www.usga.org/Rule-Books/Rules-of-Golf/Rule-14/#14-3

The basic language of the rule is, if you're using something to gain an advantage on the golf course, other than USGA approved golf equipment, chances are you're using a piece of equipment that breaks the rules.

Pros aren't the only ones who break the rules. Earlier this year, Hall of Fame wide receiver Jerry Rice was disqualified from a Nationwide tournament when his caddy used a range finder to measure yardage. This was also a violation of Rule 14-3.

While yardage books are allowed, range finders are not. The same is true for those hot new GPS devices and smart phone apps as well. Using any of these will get you disqualified based on rule 14-3. So what can we do as amateur golfers to learn from these high profile mistakes? The number one thing to do is familiarize yourself with the rules of golf. Remember, while many training aids are designed to help the weekend golfer improve their scores, keep in mind that many are not legal to use on the golf course. This is per the rules stated by the USGA. This means that use of any of the Medicus Dual Hinge Swing Trainers while on the course is a rules violation, resulting in disqualification.

Therefore, you don't want to become dependent on training aids and other devices while on the golf course. Training aids are for practice, not for real rounds of golf. I am a strong believer in using training aids, especially the Medicus Driver, as it's helped improve my scores immensely. But training aids have a time and place. That time and place is on the driving range, and in your back yard. You don't want to use training aids during a round of golf. Basically, it's cheating, even if you feel that you don't really gain any sort of distinct advantage by doing so. Also, make sure that any equipment you use is approved for use on the golf course by the USGA. The Medicus also has weighted swing trainers as well, and all of those are also illegal clubs, except for the Power Maximus L-Wedge, which has been USGA approved for use on the golf course.

When you're playing with your regular foursome, do any of them really care that you're breaking the rules by using a Medicus, a range finder, or some other training aid? Probably not. But you must remember this rule when you play in a tournament. Your tournament playing partners won't be as forgiving as your regular foursome. This is especially true if you finish in the money. Leave your Medicus and any other training aids at home, otherwise you may fall into old habits and use the training aid during the tournament, violating USGA Rule 14-3. If you happen to just throw your Medicus Driver in your golf bag but never use it, you may be in violation of another USGA Rule. 

Having an extra club in your bag would violate USGA Rule 4-4: Maximum of 14 Clubs. The penalty for carrying an extra club in your bag is also disqualification.

To read the 14 Club rule, click this link: http://www.usga.org/Rule-Books/Rules-of-Golf/Rule-04/#4-4

Do yourself a favor when you play in a tournament, especially if money is involved, leave any golf training aids at home. When it comes to tournaments, just remember, training aids are a big NO-NO!

Inside the NFL - Patriots vs. Bears

CHICAGO (AP) -- Bad weather didn't bother Tom Brady . The big, bad Bears didn't, either. He was cool as ever on a snowy, blustery, bone-chilling day, unfazed by the elements and not quite ready to pop the champagne after the New England Patriots locked up another playoff spot. They're in it for the eighth time in 10 years after a 36-7 dismantling of the Chicago Bears on Sunday in which Brady threw for 369 yards and two touchdowns despite the harsh conditions. "There's a long way to go," he said. "I don't think anything's really been accomplished yet. We're working hard. I don't think we've got every problem solved. There are plenty of defenses that have kicked us around this year. We don't sit in here and think we've got it all figured out." So he wasn't ready to celebrate. Nor was coach Bill Belichick. "Good, we got to keep playing," he said. "I'm pretty sure when the end of the season comes, someone will tell us what we need to do." The win was the fifth straight for the Patriots (11-2), and this one was no less impressive than their 45-3 rout of the New York Jets on Monday night. They wasted little time blowing it open, grabbing a 33-0 halftime lead and sending Belichick to his 174th career win. That put him in a tie for 10th place with Mike Holmgren. Brady picked apart the league's third-ranked defense, completing 27 of 40 passes with no interceptions for the eighth straight game. And the Patriots increased their lead in the AFC East to two over the Jets. "It was a ...

New York Giants - Giants in New York!

We all know that when we hear the word Giants, it directly connotes an image of huge and monstrous images in our heads. Childhood stories of big and scary people would be relived and majority would be left in fear and shock. Now that we are of more mature age, we still do recognize "Giants" as big monsters taking on their opponents. But this time, instead of being in fear, we are left cheering for them while they are literally tackling their opponents for a leather skinned ball. Yes, this time, when we say Giants, we mean the New York Giants!

Being a Giant is not so bad. It means you have various advantages against other individuals. You may be bigger in size, more powerful in terms of strength, or even more capable of covering more area those normal sized beings. This would especially be not a bad thing if we are talking about a team in NFL ready to rough it out against the other grueling teams in the NFL.

Believe it or not, this team was originally owned by just one man. A successful businessman, named Tim Mara, bought the franchise for a mere $500. Now, in today's financially advanced times, this would simply sound as chunk change if we're talking about a competitive team in the NFL. But since this was back in the 1920's, $500 was a huge amount of money already. What made things even more financially struggling was the fact that this was also the era where the country suffered from an economic depression, leading to markets crashing in ways which would make any investor cry. Indeed Tim Mara was left unset at this disturbing scenario. But like any made businessman, the successive substantial loses led him to an operative business decision: He handed the business to his two boys. His twenty two year old son, Jack, and fourteen year old son, Wellington, became the youngest owners of an NFL team in the history of the whole league. I think this would stand still in the record books as I don't think there would be anyone younger than the age of fourteen who would own his own team in the National Football League!

But amidst the struggles, the team has risen as one of the National Football League's top teams! The Giants have been winning playoff games and is certainly not taken easily by any opponent. They are very much respected and have indeed lived up to its name as one of the "Big Guys" in the league.

But aside from being an NFL team, you might actually wonder. How influential is this to the viewers and fans that are consistently supporting this team? Well, you might actually consider going through your movie database and search for "The Little Giants". Yes, that is right. Not only did they make a movie with the Giants being a great football team, but they actually start them young! Indeed being a Giant fan is more than just an obsession, it's a tradition!

New Orleans Saints Are Super Bowl Contenders in 2009

The New Orleans Saints have a very talented offense that can take them deep into January without question. QB Drew Brees is playing the best he has ever played and will be a favorite for MVP once the season is over. The 09' season should be a good one for the Saints franchise overall, many expect the Saints to play late in January.

Drew Brees has established himself as one of the best quarterbacks in the league - having all the offense threats such as WR Marques Colston, RB Mike Bell, BB Reggie Bush, and WR Jeremy Shockey. All the pieces are in place for the Saints to win many games this season. Will they be just a good regular season team? Will they use all their offense weapons in January when the pressure is on also? Offenses this good don't come along this often so the Saints must make the most of the great players they do have now.

The NFC South isn't as good as it was in years past. The Saints should win the division - if everyone, especially Drew Brees, stay healthy for the entire season. The Saints should have many easy games on their schedule to rack up wins and get a high seed for the playoffs, it not the number one seed. The defense is what the Saints need to keep opponents to a relatively low score - we know the Saints can score in bunches and quickly.

New Orleans has struggled financially the last few years and a good Saints football team is what the New Orleans community needs. We know what happened with the 07' New England Patriots - they were on the verge of the greatest NFL season of all time but were defeated in the Super Bowl by the New York Giants. It uncertain the Saints can be as great an offense as the Patriots were in 07', what will matter is how they execute in the playoffs.




The New Orleans Saints forum is filled with excited Saints fans at RootZoo. All football fans would love the new fantasy football there too.

Controversial Video: Quality Controlling 2010 Playoff Contenders Football

I apparently stepped on some toes while filming the quality control check for 2010 Playoff Contenders, inadvertently creating quite the controversy in the process. Stay tuned to the end of the video to see what I mean. I'll do my best to get more information on the issue later this week.

NFL Offense and Defense Ranking - Best and Worst Offenses and Defenses, Week 14 Balanced Ranking

This is the balanced offense and defense ranking for the pass and the run. The difference between this ranking and other rankings is that it looks at how well a team performs in each strategic area of the field. Coaches look at the areas that they can perform the best and plan to attack the weak spots in the defense.

Passing Offense

#1 Indianapolis Colts - They are consistent on their ability to throw the ball. Peyton Manning is still one of the best quarterbacks even with the turnovers.

#2 Dallas Cowboys - The Cowboys have had issues this year and Jon Kitna is performing better than people hoped. He has 11 touchdowns.

#2 New Orleans Saints - The Saints are tied with the Dallas Cowboys. The Saints started slower than expected this year and are becoming stronger each week. Drew Brees has 3,634 passing yards and 25 touchdowns.

#4 San Diego Chargers - The Chargers have statistically been on top most of the season. They are starting to slip. Phillip Rivers is a top quarterback with 24 touchdowns and 3,642 yards.

#5 Denver Broncos - This is the bright spot for the Broncos. They can throw the ball. Kyle Orton has 20 touchdowns with 3,487 yards.

#6 Philadelphia Eagles - They started with Kevin Kolb and big expectations. Michael Vick stepped in due to Kolb's injury with a lot to prove. Vick is doing well and is not thought of as a passing quarterback but he is showing he can step up. Vick has 2,243 passing yards and 15 touchdowns. He has also rushed for 6 touchdowns.

#7 Detroit Lions - That is right the Lions can throw the ball. They have also had injury problems at quarterback. Is this a theme this year? Shaun Hill stepped in for Matthew Stafford. Hill has 13 touchdowns and 2,206 passing yards. Stafford has yet to practice this week.

#8 New England Patriots - The Patriots are becoming a dominant team again. Bill Belichick is putting together another strong offense. Tom Brady has 3,029 passing yards and 27 touchdowns. They are using many different receivers this year and Wes Welker is leading with 672 yards and 7 touchdowns.

#8 Cincinnati Bengals - The Bengals are tied with the Patriots for 8th place. Carson Palmer has 20 touchdowns and 3009 passing yards. Terrell Owens is coming into his own, again, with 961 receiving yards and 9 touchdowns.

#10 Green Bay Packers - The Packers have a strong passing offense and with better protection of Aaron Rodgers it will only get better. Rodgers has 3,243 passing yards and 22 touchdowns. Greg Jennings has 11 touchdowns and 944 receiving yards.

#29 Tampa Bay Buccaneers - The Buccaneers have had flashes of dominance this year. Josh Freeman has 2,442 passing yards and 16 touchdowns.

#30 Oakland Raiders - This is the weakness for the Raiders. Who is the quarterback? Jason Campbell was replaced and Bruce Gradkowski is now injured. J.T. O'Sullivan was just signed. It looks like Campbell is starting again. Campbell has 1,439 passing yards and 8 touchdowns.

#31 Carolina Panthers - This is a major area that needs improvement if the Panthers are going to become a playoff contender. Jimmy Clausen and Matt Moore have not succeeded in their roles as quarterbacks.

#32 Tennessee Titans - Still ranked in last place as a passing offense. Five game losing streak and last in the pass go hand in hand. Vince Young and Kerry Collins have both started this year. Both of these quarterbacks have been successful in the past. It makes you wonder what is wrong?

Passing Defense

#1 San Diego Charger - They are only giving up 186.2 yards a game. This is fantastic and they should win more with this type of passing defense.

#2 New Orleans Saints - The Saints are getting better each week. The Saints weakest area is the right side. They are excellent defending the middle of the field.

#3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers - The Buccaneers have lost two games in a row and this is not the reason why.

#4 Indianapolis Colts - The Colts play the Titans tonight and should continue to dominate in this category against the worst passing offense.

#4 Oakland Raiders - The Raiders are tied with the Colts. The pass defense gives up 206.8 yards a game. They are more balanced on their defense. There is not one area that is a huge target.

#29 Dallas Cowboys - The Cowboys are playing from behind a lot and giving up the passing yards is a reason why.

#30 Seattle Seahawks - If the Seahawks want to continue to challenge for the NFC West they need to improve this passing defense. They give up 120 yards a game just on the right side of the field.

#31 New England Patriots - If something is going to hurt the Patriots this is the area that teams can get them. Passing against the Patriots is a safe bet.

#32 Houston Texans - The Texans are sliding and the pass defense needs to step up if they want to salvage this season.

#2 Oakland Raiders - They didn't start off as a power rushing team. They are developing into this. Darren McFadden is becoming a threat. He has 870 yards and 5 touchdowns. The lack of touchdowns is a negative.

#3 New York Jets - The passing game is not the strongest but the rushing game is tops. LaDainian Tomlinson, Shonn Greens and Tony Richardson are all great backs to have. Both Tomlinson and Richardson did not practice but not due to injury.

#3 Philadelphia Eagles - The Eagles are climbing up the rushing offense charts. This is partly due to Michael Vick and his ability to run the ball. LeSean McCoy has 823 yards and 7 touchdowns. Vick has 467 yards

#5 Houston Texans - Here is the offensive strength for the Texans. Arian Foster is having a great season with 1,230 yards and 13 touchdowns.

#6 New York Giants - Another NFC East team that can run the ball. The Giants have Ahmad Bradshaw with 1,013 yards and 7 touchdowns. Brandon Jacobs is a great rotating running back. Jacobs has 577 and 7 touchdowns. Bradshaw did not practice because of his wrist.

#7 Minnesota Vikings - The Vikings have one of the best running backs with Adrian Peterson. Peterson has 1,123 yards and 11 touchdowns. The running game started slower than expected this year and is coming on strong. Toby Gerhart is a rookie that can plough forward. He had his best game last week and a season total of 216 yards.

#8 Atlanta Falcons - The Falcons have Michael Turner. Turner has 1,062 yards and 8 touchdowns. Jason Snelling the second running back did not practice because of a hamstring.

#9 Jacksonville Jaguars - They are on top of their division and the running game is partly responsible. Maurice Jones-Drew is a top back in the league. He has 1,177 yards and 4 touchdowns. David Garrard is a mobile quarterback and has 200 yards.

#9 Tampa Bay Buccaneers - The Bucs are tied with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Several backs have contributed to gain rushing yards LeGarrette Blount has the most yards with 599 and 5 touchdowns.

#29 Denver Broncos - When a team is losing they have a difficult time staying out of the bottom rankings. Their running game has Knowshon Moreno as their top rusher at 633 yards and 4 touchdowns.

#30 Arizona Cardinal - This is a major reason the Cardinals are having trouble this year. It is one of many reasons. Tim Hightower has 519 yards and three touchdowns. The good news is that he is averaging 4.7 yards per carry. Playing from behind does not help the running game.

#31 Seattle Seahawks - A tie in the division and the running game can improve. Neither Justin Forsett or Marchawn Lynch are racking up big numbers this year. Forsett is averaging 4.6 yards a carry and 469 yards for the season.

#32 Indianapolis Colts - If you want to point fingers and the reason why the Colts are suffering here it is. Joseph Addai has 406 yards for the season and only 3 touchdowns.

Rushing Defense

#1 Pittsburgh Steelers - The Steelers have lead the league this season in this area. It is a good area to dominate. Defense can win championships and rushing defense is even better.

#2 Chicago Bears - The Bears are also on top of their division. The rushing defense is a major part of this reason. They dominate in the middle only allowing 10.4 yards a game.

#3 New York Giants - Another team on top of their division with the Philadelphia Eagles. Having a top rush defense should help the Giants get into the playoffs as either the division champions or wild card.

#4 Jacksonville Jaguars - They are leading their division over the Indianapolis Colts. This is a surprise to the league but a top rush defense can explain what is happening. Their biggest weakness is the middle of the field but that is being picky.

#5 New York Jets - The Jets are not on top of their division right now. They are a top team and should make the playoffs.

#28 Oakland Raiders and Washington Redskins - These teams are both tied for the 28th spot. These teams are similar in the fact that they have high expectations with good play earlier in the season. This run defense is part of the reason they are both slipping.

#30 Indianapolis Colts - Struggling this season and this is another reason why. The Colts need to stop the run if they want to get Peyton Manning on the field.

#31 Arizona Cardinals - A team does not want to be on a bottom ranking and the Cardinals are there more often. This is a disappointing season for the Cardinals.

#32 Buffalo Bills - The Bills are a good team with a bas run defense. If this area is improved the Bills will become a top contender in the NFL quickly.

The Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL) will be holding their annual preseason training camp in St. Joseph, Missouri between the dates of Thursday July 29, 2010 and Thursday August 19, 2010. After holding their annual training camp in River Falls, Wisconsin for many years this will be the inaugural training camp held in St. Joseph, Missouri.

The city of St. Joseph, Missouri has a population of about 75,000 people and is located approximately one hour north of Arrowhead Stadium where the Kansas City Chiefs play eight home football games a season. St. Joseph and by extension Kansas City are located in the northwestern portion of the state near the Kansas, Nebraska, and to a lesser extent the Iowa border. Kansas City, located on the Missouri River, is about a four hour drive on I-70 from St. Louis Missouri which is located on the east side of the state on the Mississippi river bordering Illinois.

The motivation for the Chiefs to move from River Falls, Wisconsin to St. Joseph, Missouri was is in part due to the closer proximity to loyal fans in the surrounding area. Whereas previous coaching staffs and team administrators had rationalized the Wisconsin location as a more secluded area where the team could perhaps better focus without as many distractions from fans crowding the area the current thought within the organization is that a training camp move closer to home will hopefully translate into a reinvigorated fan base after several losing seasons in which the team failed to make the playoffs.

The city of St. Joseph is anxious to host the event as it is expected to bring millions of dollars to the city through loyal fans coming from hours away to see their beloved organization up close and for the first time this season. St. Joseph mayor Bill Falkner has gone on record with the local St. Joseph News-Press stating that he believes the emergence of the Chiefs training camp will be a boost for local businesses. Among the area business expected to see the most immediate gains are restaurants, hotels, and retailers.

The Kansas City Chiefs will hold their training camp on the campus of Missouri Western State University (formerly Missouri Western State College) which is visible from Interstate-29. In anticipation of the Chiefs training camp Missouri Western has built a large indoor practice facility to accommodate the professional organization in case inclement weather like thunderstorms occurs. Missouri Western has its own Division-II football program which will benefit from being able to use the indoor football practice facility throughout the fall football season.

How to Play Fantasy Football - What is the Difference Between Head to Head and Rotisserie Leagues?

One of the first questions that comes up to new fantasy players is how to play fantasy football head-to-head and rotisserie leagues. Here's some of the basics so you can make an informed decision on what is the right league for you.

In fantasy football leagues, head-to-head leagues are when you go up against a different opponent in your league every week. The manager of the team who earns the most points at the end of the week wins. Then the following week your points get reset and you do it all over again. Your league commissioner decides what grouping of total points are used for tiebreakers between two or even three teams.

When you play head-to-head match-ups the experience is really is more of a simulation of the actual NFL experience. What I mean by this is on any given game day any team could pull off an upset. This makes it a lot more enjoyable because you go from a week to week basis and you don't have to wait till nearly the end of the season for the excitement to really kick in.

At the end of the season, each team's win-loss record determines if that team goes into the fantasy football championship. The top teams go into the playoffs in a head-to-head format. Just like in the real pro-football scenario. The team that wins the final playoff wins the season's championship.

In a rotisserie league you don't have head to head games each week. Instead your team's points are accumulated over the entire regular NFL season. Whatever team has the most points at the end of the year is the winner for the season.

Now, let's just think a minute about some of the crazy stuff that happens during a regular football season. Let's say your team is having a pretty decent year, but you had one game where your quarterback threw a load of interceptions. This allowed your opposition to pound the heck out of your team and they won by a lot of points.

Well that single game could cost you the entire season. Remember, whoever has the most points at the end of the season wins the championship in rotisserie leagues. Wouldn't it just bite that your team one every game, but that one game?

With a head-to-head league how you play your fantasy football team is a lot more like the real thing. That's what I prefer to play and so have chosen an head-to-head fantasy football league.

Have the New Orleans Saints Lost Their Fire?

The only team to ever have an undefeated season was the 1972 Miami Dolphins. Since then many NFL teams have attempted to match this seemingly impossible achievement. Of those worth mentioning are the 1976 Oakland Raiders (13-1), the 1984 San Fransisco 49ers (13-1), the 1985 Chicago Bears (13-1), the 1988 Minnesota Vikings(15-1), the 2004 Pittsburgh Steelers (15-1), the 2007 New England Patriots(who actually did have an undefeated regular season and did not lose until the Super Bowl), the 2005 and 2009 Indianapolis Colts, and of course the 2009 New Orleans Saints.

So as you can see, measuring a teams greatness on whether or not they were able to complete a perfect season is not really a proper unit of measure. The Saints however have lost their past two games to what I would consider o be very lack luster teams. Because of this their is reason to question exactly what will happen to the Saints in the playoffs. They have showed a great deal of promise thus far but how could they suddenly lose their spark the way that they did? Was it all a fluke? Are they really as good as we thought they were? Is it some sort of a curse?

First of all the Dallas Cowboys may have not had the season that everyone thought they would have this year but they are still an exceptional football team and the fact that they beat the Saints should not have come as the biggest surprise to any real football fan. The loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers however is cause for some real concern for all Saints fan. With a record of (2-12) going into the game no one, (including me) would have ever thought that the Saints would lose this game.

So, have the Saints lost their fire? That remains to be seen. The one thing that any real football fan should already know and always remember is that any team could be better than the other on any given Sunday...

Chase Betting Systems (Also Known As Dog Chase Betting)

If you are an experienced sports gambler you know the old adage, that if you chase your loses you will lose your shirt and be certain to bust your account. It is time to throw all that non-sense out of the window and learn for the first time, that chasing your loses is the best possible scenario. In order to make money using a chase betting system you need three items at your disposal:

1. A decent bankroll (or account balance)
2. A Plan
3. A strong stomach to carry out the plan

The old adage states that: he who chases his losses will burn through his bankroll. This is true, only if you do not have a true plan, a strong stomach and a decent bankroll. Let me explain. The old adage comes from the gambler who bets $100 on Team 1 to win today. Team 1 loses, thus tomorrow the gambler bets $200 on Team 2 to win (he thinks he can not lose twice in a row and plus Team 2 is a sure thing). Team 2 loses, then on day 3 he bets his remaining bankroll on Team 3, he loses and within three days his bankroll busts. The old adage is true, for this gambler...not for you.

You see a chase system uses simple mathematics to ensure that you do not ever lose money. However, you must make sure you bet the correct amount and you must have the guts to follow through with this program. The system is easy to follow regardless of which sport you bet on and regardless of if you are chasing a specific team or a general sport. In 2007, AFSB completed a study of the chase system in the NHL focusing on the Montreal Canadians. The system worked like this: On day 1, $25.00 was bet on Montreal, if Montreal lost, then the next time that Montreal played $50.00 was bet on Montreal, if Montreal lost again, then in the next game $100.00 was bet on Montreal, if Montreal lost that game then $200.00 was bet on Montreal and so on until Montreal wins or you run out of money. Once Montreal wins then the system resets and the next time Montreal won $25 was bet on Montreal in their next game, if they lost then in the next game $50 was bet on Montreal, however, if they won, then in the next game $25 was bet on Montreal.

This simple system made us $1,210.00 in the NBA Playoffs in 2007 (see our Article on Absolutely Free Sports Bets regarding the NBA Dog-Chase System). We again used this system in the 2008 MLB playoffs and picked up a nice $1,373.00.

In the 2010 NCAA Basketball season we are utilizing this system in a more generic manner. We are playing one Dog-Chase and one Favorite-Chase that is not team specific. Click on our Free Picks link to see the details of the 2010 NCAA Basketball Chase System hard at work.

In order to ensure that your account does not bust we recommend that you only bet with 1/4 of the normal amount that you gamble with per game. For example, if you bet $100 per game, then under a chase system you should only bet $25.00 per game. This is why:

The chase system is based upon the premise that you should not be able to incorrectly handicap a game for seven days in a row. If you are betting $100.00 per event in a chase system, and are incorrect 7 times in a row then you will be betting $6,400.00 on the seventh game ($100, $200, $400, $800, $1,600, $3,200, $6,400). To protect yourself you should bet 1/4 of the normal amount, in our examples we assume 1/4 would be $25.00 per event ($25, $50, $100, $200, $400, $800, and $1,600).

Let's examine the power of the Chase system. Let's examine one gambler who bets on 14 games (1 per day, over a 14 day period) and this gambler does not do so well, he wins 6 and loses 8. Example 1 below shows if he simply bets $100.00 per game at a normal -110 per game. Example 2 shows the same gambler with the same results, however, he bets $25.00 in a Chase system.

Example 1 - Sports Gambler that wins 6 bets and loses 8
betting $100.00 per game, one game per day
Game 1: Winner, $91.00
Game 2: Winner, $91.00
Game 3: Loss -$100.00
Game 4: Loss -$100.00
Game 5: Loss -$100.00
Game 6: Winner $91.00
Game 7: Loss -$100.00
Game 8: Loss -$100.00
Game 9: Winner $91.00
Game10: Loss -$100.00
Game 11: Winner $91.00
Game 12: Loss -$100.00
Game 13: Loss -$100.00
Game 14: Winner $91.00

This gambler is 6-8 and lost $254.00 over a two week period.

Example 2 - Sports Gambler that wins 6 bets and loses 8
betting $25.00 per game (with chase rules), one game per day
Game 1: 25 is bet and Wins $23.00, so in the next game:
Game 2: 25 is bet and Wins $23.00, so in the next game:
Game 3: 25 is bet and Loss -$25.00, so in the next game:
Game 4: 50 is bet and Loss -$50.00, so in the next game:
Game 5: $100 is bet and Loss -$100.00, so in the next game:
Game 6: $200 is bet and Wins +$182.00, so in the next game:
Game 7: $25 is bet and Loss -$25.00, so in the next game:
Game 8: $50 is bet and Loss -$50.00, so in the next game:
Game 9: $100 is bet and Wins $91.00, so in the next game:
Game10: $25 is bet and Loss -$25.00, so in the next game:
Game 11: $50 is bet and Wins $45.00, so in the next game:
Game 12: $25 is bet and Loss -$25.00, so in the next game:
Game 13: $50 is bet and Loss -$50.00, so in the next game:
Game 14: $100 is bet and Wins $91.00

This gambler is 6-8 and WON $105.00 over a two week period with a losing record.

Obviously you can use this system in way you wish, here are some possibilities:

(1) Team specific. In 2007, in the NHL we only used this system betting on Montreal. If Montreal lost, we doubled up on the next game, if they won, then in the next game we reverted back to our starting point.

(2) Position specific: In 2010, we are playing one dog and one favorite every day in NCAA Basketball, if the dog loses then we double up on a different dog the next day, if the dog wins then the next day we revert back to our starting point. (The same is true for our favorite system)

(3) Position specific within a series: In the 2007 NBA playoffs we played on the dog throughout a series, thus the dog could be Team 1 in game one vs. Team 2, but then Team 2 could be the dog in game 2. We played on the dog regardless of who we played on the previous game.

You must be cautioned, there will be a point wherein you find yourself wagering more than you ever wagered before on one game, however, when that game hits your profits skyrocket. Please do not bet your normal unit, bet 1/4 or less.

If you are skeptical, review our article on NBA Dog-Chase from 2007, view our results from the 2008 MLB Playoffs, or just click on the Free Picks link from our web site and see how the system is working in 2010. Once you see how good it works, you will be addicted.

1997 NFL on NBC Intro (DEN vs. JAX -- 1996 AFC Divisional Playoff).wmv

(c)1997 National Football League; NBC Universal This is the intro for the 1996 AFC Divisional playoff between the #5 seeded Jacksonville Jaguars (one year removed from expansion) and the top-seeded Denver Broncos in one of the most thrilling playoff games ever (when it appeared in the NFL's Greatest Games series; it would be dubbed "Ambush at Mile High"). This is the only 1996 NFL on NBC intro I have discovered. Jacksonville would go on to win 30-27 to hand what (in the America's Game on the 1997 Denver Broncos) John Elway would consider the most frustrating loss in his career. NOTES: 1. This would be the only loss for the Denver Broncos at Mile High during the 1996 season. 2. This would (famously) be the last game that the "Orange Crush" uniforms were worn as the regular unis (Denver would switch to their current uniforms the following season; only bringing the Orange Crush version back for a 2001 Thanksgiving match with Dallas). 3. This was the final game officiated by Red "First DOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNN" Cashion. ANNOUNCERS: Dick Enberg, Paul Maguire, Phil Simms SIDELINE REPORTERS: Jim Gray, Beasley Reece (normally the analyst opposite Don Criqui at this point)

Brawn Over Brains - Philip Rivers, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Toughness In Pro Sports

Picture this scenario: two secretaries get hired by a well-known law firm, and work there for several years. One (let's call him Phil) is somewhat of an underachiever, and is notorious for his surly attitude. The other (let's call him LT) represents the firm with class and dignity, and is the most efficient worker they've ever had. One day, they both come down with injuries while typing. Phil has a torn ligament in his wrist, while LT is in the early stages of developing carpal tunnel syndrome. They both need time off, but the firm's biggest client goes on trial in one week. Phil decides to fight through his tremendous pain, because the person who would take over his work (William E. Volek) isn't trusted by anybody in the firm. LT takes the necessary time off, comforted by the fact that his replacement is infinitely better than Phil's, and can help the company get through its busy time. After the trial, everyone hails Phil's courage, even though the damage in his wrist is so severe that he might not be able to work when they next need him. LT is condemned for his choice, even though he decreased his risk of suffering a long-term injury by getting adequate rest. Despite the fact that LT is an all-time great secretary, and had only called in sick once before in his career, he will forever be remembered for failing to come through in that one week, and his years of hard work become tainted in the process.

Seems kind of rough, no? How many of us would do what LT did, and make sure to avoid long-term injury in order to continue earning a good living for their family? This situation came to fruition this past Sunday in the AFC Championship Game, when San Diego's future Hall-of-Fame running back, LaDainian Tomlinson, carried the ball only twice against New England due to a sprained medial collateral ligament in his knee. Their inconsistent quarterback, Philip Rivers, played the whole game with a completely torn anterior cruciate ligament in his knee, and actually had preliminary surgery six days before in a last ditch effort to play. It's possible that he won't be back in time for their next training camp, as recovery time for this injury can last up to eight months. As expected, Rivers has been universally hailed for his courage, while Tomlinson has been lambasted by fans and media members alike. The obvious question that emerges is this: why do we expect so much from pro athletes? In no other area of life would we debate this dilemma. If you have an injury, and it's going to affect your production, you take time off to heal. Case closed. However, if you play pro sports, and especially pro football, it isn't enough to just be good at your job. You also have to have a level of toughness that's acceptable to not only your teammates, but to the millions of people on their couches who watch and criticize what you do.

We as fans always expect a superhuman effort from our athletes. We demand it, since they charge us so much for tickets, and especially since the athletes get paid such ludicrous amounts of money. So this past Sunday, everyone wanted to see the Chargers play the Patriots with their full complement of starters. We wanted LaDainian to tough it out, since his presence would have made the game better. The problem is that there are plenty of instances when athletes did risk it all, and never were the same again. We always seem to forget that Bill Walton felt such pressure to play through injury that he went against his personal beliefs in the '78 playoffs and took pain killers in order to deal with his foot problems. We also seem to forget that over the next five years, he missed 3 full seasons, and played in only 14 and 33 games in the other two. We also forget that NFL players are more prone to depression, arthritis, and an assortment of other mental and physical problems when their careers are over, because they take risks similar to the one Rivers took. So while I respect Rivers' toughness, I can't use his decision as a reason to fault Tomlinson. Because there is no right or wrong way to deal with this dilemma. If Rivers felt like the risk was worth it, and LaDainian didn't, then who are we to tell them otherwise? Only one thing is certain - next year, if LaDainian continues to break records, while Rivers struggles to make it back from his injury, people will finally acknowledge the complexity of this issue, which isn't as clear-cut as it's currently being presented.

Go For It On Fourth Down - The Data Says You Should

It's Fourth and Long. Go For It. The Numbers Are In Your Favor.

It's the playoffs in the NFL and I'm bummed. One of the teams I had as my favorite to go far in the tournament went out with barely a fight. It's not so much that they lost. It's just that they left a lot of money on the table. There were opportunities for them to take a chance and go for it on fourth down, and the coach decided that the "winning" strategy was to kick it away to the opposing team. That got me thinking --- whose idea was it anyway to believe that kicking the ball away on fourth down makes sense when a you're playing in a one-and-done playoff series? Isn't this the time to roll the dice and take creative chances and gather exceptional courage?

I've spent the past 10 years teaching homeless people a new method that expanded their capacity so that they could arrive at new solutions to old problems. We call this new approach The Window Effect. It incorporates the teaching of Quantum Physics to people who've probably never been exposed to those ideas before. It also incorporates philosophy, political discourse and visioning. It should be noted that I never teach down to these students. I always encourage them to come up to the level of information I provide. This pushes the student beyond their comfort zone, but asks them to go further. From all of my work over the years doing this course, one thing I know for sure: - you can't teach courage, but you can create an atmosphere for people to get it for themselves. Courage requires people to think beyond their normal reasoning. In order for my students to wrap their heads around models of thinking beyond the normal, I decided to break courage down in terms of sports, namely football and the infamous fourth down decision.

Anyone who watches American-style football with any regularity knows that teams often punt the ball or kick a field goal on fourth down. The conventional wisdom is that you play to not lose the game by tying it with a field goal or you punt the ball so far away, the other team has less of a chance of scoring, thus increasing the odds that your team will win. According to an emerging number of statisticians and economists, going for a first down or touchdown instead of kicking the ball is a better bet. One guy from this new school of thought is David Berri, a sports economist and professor of applied economics at Southern Utah University. He comes flat out and says teams punt much more frequently than they should. "You don't want to punt when you have the ball in the area of your opponent's 30- to 40-yard line," he says. "The cost-benefit study indicates you should go for it. If you punt, they're probably going to get the ball on the 20 anyway, which isn't much of a gain, and it's a long field goal. The value of going for it increases dramatically in that area of the field. "

I started talking to the students with these facts just to let them know that the odds are often in their favor when they decide to take chances where contemporary conventional wisdom tells them to play it safe.

We started describing fourth-down scenarios in their lives where they were asked to either go for it or punt. Most of the time (not all), we realized that when they punted (using the analogy) the situation didn't get better. In many cases, it got worse. Going for it on fourth down is not necessarily the best idea all of the time, but making it part of the discussion instead of going for the punt immediately increased the student's courage ratio and possibilities for success. The numbers bear it out. Go for it.
