Retraction: Lebron James

Posted on November 15, 2010 by gamedaycole

I had posted some picks from Lebron James as part of last week’s research and I will be posting a retraction of those results. Chris Fowler had an old article on ESPN.com saying Lebron went 7-3 on picks. After watching the video on Youtube I have graded his picks as the following:

Lebron James 10/25/08
LOSS Michigan over MichSt
WIN FSU over VaTech
LOSS GaTech over Virginia
WIN ND over Washington
LOSS Arizona over USC
LOSS LSU over Georgia
WIN Bama over Tennessee
WIN TTU over Kansas
WIN Texas over OkSt
LOSS Ohio State over PennSt

That brings him in at 5-5 so I’m not sure what Chris Fowler was smoking unless there was another appearance I was not aware of. The video is found here:

Week 11, 2010 Results

Posted on November 14, 2010 by gamedaycole

Here’s the slate from Week 11, 2010. Individual pages and overall standings are being updated. We’re welcoming Skip Bayless to the group and would like to give a big shoutout to Rick at the Reverse Bayless gambling system blog. You can find him at http://reversebaylessgambling.blogspot.com/. He is a true American hero as he fades Skip Bayless’ predictions each week and backs them up with his own hard cash.

As for this week, Desmond Howard finally had a monster week only picking one game wrong. Skip also had a pretty good week picking straight up (although Rick is still profiting nicely betting against the spread fading Skip). Corso and Herbstreit had solid weeks, and Derek Poundstone had an average week. Here’s the actual breakdown:
