As always, Good Luck and Play Responsibly
LAS VEGAS — 10 weeks and 70 positions into The 7 Best and we are coming off an a +EV session the week prior and I have firmly entrenched myself as a quality entrant in this competition. Last week’s results yielded a 4-3 ledger ATS and a successful conversion of the week’s Top Choice. The 7 Best record sits at 37-33 (52.9%), 7-3 (70%) Top Choice, season to-date. This being an arduous competition (*using Friday numbers*) where I’m mirroring myself with real action against a bunch of hacks (with exception to some whom I have great respect for) who are competing in a well-known competition (CFFI), on a well-known network whilst using the same scoring system, I can stand behind this current record. In relation to the scoring system for this project, this record equates to a total of 40.5 points (1.5 per TC win, 1 point per win, .5 per push). This stays relevant now and in the coming weeks as my departure in the competition comes when I would be the next eliminated in the CFFI. The good news is, there’s risky business boys and curtain jerkers, with like, 32 points, so we don’t have to worry about elimination just yet.
Having all said, here are my 7 Best ATS/Total positions for this weekend in College Football and the National Football League. I think you all sense citing my lack of inclusion in the sports betting space — in favor of people who couldn’t shine my shoes or carry my briefcase in the gaming industry or in the sports betting ethos — the “gloves are off.”
— FAU/TEMPLE OVER 50.5
— Michigan State/Illinois UNDER 48
— OREGON (-13.5) at Wisconsin
— Rams at PATRIOTS (+4.5)
— PACKERS (-5.5) at Bears
— Bengals at CHARGERS (-1.5)
TOP CHOICE
Colts at JETS (-4)
If not now, when?

At this juncture, I don’t need to say much. The stats speak for themselves. If you want me to explain my plays in full detail, then I’m more than happy to supply my writing to your platform and/or do a full phone interview segment. Anything less is unsatisfactory to me and doesn’t fit the profile of a professional holding the statistics I do in realms of College Basketball and the Premier League especially and to a lesser-extent College Football and the NFL, the core of my betting portfolio. Others with equal or lesser points in a similar competition (CFFI) get national run for gaming insights, but for whatever reason, I don’t. It’s asinine. To exclude me from public presentation is a major disservice to you, the bettor and you should be asking the questions to whomever you subscribe to or pay for picks as to why they don’t have the best people working for them. -T

CREATOR’S NOTE: This week’s 7 Best used odds from Circa Sports and William Hill on the day of publish (today). In the opinion of this author, Circa Sports serves as the premier destination in the brick-and-mortar Sportsbook genre in American Gaming and is a certain travel destination for those who visit the great city of Las Vegas. William Hill has the best overall betting menu and is the undisputed champion of soccer betting in the LV market. To be transparent with you, I don’t play at Circa because I’m not welcome, or at minimum not (action and person-wise) wanted. I’ve stopped playing on account at WH as, in my opinion, risk communicates with media entities on what I’m doing, which I find funny because that app doesn’t represent all my action.

TIP OF THE FOREHEAD BETTOR’S NOTE: I’ve been touting the return of the Super 5 for months. In response, the network of plagiarists (and The Freerider, The Impotent Man and The Slob-Drunkard), the same network who airs Friday night contest which I compete with with The 7 Best now has its CBB people releasing plays on X in segments featuring 5 plays. The same person who now releases 5 picks also started calling himself self such and such SPORTS. My question to them would be, “Why 5 plays?” This level of plagiarism is just awkward. What an embarrassment to the legacy of the founder of that network and the gaming industry wholesale. That network really fell-off. I barely watch anymore. They should Just save time and say they want to be me and have my intelligence and work-rate in the field. (I’d share the plagerist committing plagiarism on X but why give a lesser-brained clown who already has no business on the platform he has more run?)
