JMPicks – Playoff Edition

by JMP January 13, 2012

Of course, ever since Baby MJP was born, sleep has been at a premium, so this’ll be quick. I found these odds on yahoo, from betonline.com. I like the Saints on the road at -3.5. I don’t know the history of this line, but it feels like one that was originally larger and has shrunk [...]

Playoff Power Rankings and a Full House

by JMP January 6, 2012

When I last wrote in this space, my family consisted of three queens, a king and one card left to be dealt. I’m happy to report that I got a second king on the draw for a real world ‘full house’. Baby MJP (and yes, his name is simply the reverse of mine) was born [...]

Week In Review

Venetian Sportsbook Small

It already seems as if the year is already over. Things are slowing down everywhere except in retail outlets (you may have noticed me passing out Cyber Monday deals from Amazon all week). While things here wind down I’ll be taking some time to do a little reshuffling of the ECG family of sites. With [...]

JMPower Rankings

by JMP December 2, 2011

Welcome to the fourth installment of ‘JMPower Rankings’, in which most writers would try and tie this into the holidays, by saying what teams should be thankful for or what each team needs for Christmas. As you’ve probably discovered by now, I’m not ‘most writers’. 1. Green Bay Packers (1): Still undefeated and this is the [...]

Casino Player November 2011 Small

It was a short week thanks to Thanksgiving. Hopefully you enjoyed it as much as I did. It’s been pretty hectic with friends visiting and I have have more coming in the next few weeks. At some point I’ll be out of commission while I’m destroying Vegas as a tourist. I even have a tourist [...]

New York Jets vs. Tim Tebow – Who Ya Got?!

Dunes $25 Chip Small

I like to gamble. You know this. You may also know I never bet on games involving the New York Jets. They’re the only team I root for that I won’t mess with when it comes to gambling. I’m already a rabid enough fan that adding any more emotion to the game is not good [...]

Extreme Couponing: NFL Edition

by JMP November 11, 2011

I love a good deal. I coupon and I scan the weekly supermarket ads for deals, but I also realize that sometimes you get what you pay for. With that in mind, since we’re a bit more than halfway through the season, I’m going to pretend I’m redrafting the ‘big names’ based on what I [...]

JMPower Rankings

Welcome to the third installment of ‘JMPower Rankings’, celebrating the midpoint of the fantasy football season (assuming you don’t play in Week 17). As Bill Parcells famously said, you are what your record says you are. And, as I say (starting right now), your players and your schedule say where you’re going. Let’s take a [...]

Revel Atlantic City Small

Awesome comments on AC2LV this week. Love the interaction between everyone here. Thanks for being involved. It’s pretty great to see. Yesterday I stopped at the Vegas Internet Mafia Family Picnic put on by the fine folks at rate vegas and vegas tripping. It’s great to see the community each of those websites has and [...]

Fantasy Football Trade Deadline Ideas

by JMP October 19, 2011

Traditional deadlines are approaching in November, but for those of you looking to do something right now due to bye weeks and injuries, here are some of my thoughts on trading. For starters, don’t fall for all the “buy low, sell high” articles that are dominating fantasy football websites right now. Recall one of my [...]
