NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 5
We had several entertaining games in Week 4. Some teams set themselves apart. Some teams struggled when they shouldn't have *ahem...Missouri* Others got embarrassed by Group of Five teams. This caused a bit of a shakeup in the rankings. These rankings will vary greatly from the AP ones early in the season because I don't […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks (Week 5 2024) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests
It was another rough week in the RotoBaller Readers Group. Cjmclean17 is the only one who broke 40 points with 41. Only two more entries hit 35 points. I had an absolute disaster of a week with just 19 points. Ouch! Adding insult to injury is the fact that I got the 10-point pick right. […]

MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/23/24) - Today's Top Lineups
It's a lighter Monday night in the MLB universe with the season winding down. There are two NFL games tonight, so it makes sense. That's why it also makes sense to keep grinding MLB. There are larger contests and payouts in the NFL games. Most people have forgotten about MLB. We have four games tonight. […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 4
Most of the Week 3 fireworks happened on Friday night. There was a redemption of sorts for Kentucky and SEC teams establishing dominance outside of the conference. That will affect the rankings some and will cause mine to get closer to the AP Poll that everyone seems to love. These rankings will vary greatly from […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks (Week 4 2024) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests
It was a rough week for the RotoBaller readers group as a whole. EAGLESYANKEES77 led the way with 44 points. Only four other entries got 40 or more. Strangely enough, there wasn't a tie in points this week until 38 points (seventh place). That's what makes the confidence points so interesting! The big week from […]

MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/16/24) - Today's Top Lineups
We have a busy Monday with nine games on the main slate...but not on FanDuel. They dropped the San Diego-Houston game because it starts two minutes after the White Sox-Angels. TWO MINUTES! FanDuel only has eight games for one of the dumbest reasons I've ever seen. This article will provide my daily fantasy baseball lineup […]

MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/15/24) - Today's Top Lineups
DraftKings chopped up the slate a little more than FanDuel did today. FanDuel has nine games since they included the Reds and Twins. DK chopped it off so they could have a lame two-game early slate. FD also added Coors to their main slate. Ouch! DK's seven-gamer suddenly looks more appetizing. This article will provide […]

DraftKings Late Night CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (9/14/24)
The late-night DraftKings slates are going to look a little different this year and not always in a good way. Many West Coast teams are playing in different time zones. Even though the Big 12 (14) has made a conscious effort to take over the "after-dark" football games, there are going to be some slow […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (9/14/24)
We have another dozen games in the main tournament on DraftKings today. The marquee game in Madison between Alabama and Wisconsin isn't as exciting as last week, but the DFS result could be largely the same.

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 3
Whereas the first week of the 2024 season was mostly devoid of upsets, we had a couple of big ones in Week 2. Sure, they're less important with the expanded playoff, but it's still fun to root for the little guys (especially if you bet them outright). These rankings will vary greatly from the AP […]

We have a couple of warm-ups before another monster Saturday. We have two games tonight and two games tomorrow. Tonight's features an FCS team in Northwestern State.

MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/9/24) - Today's Top Lineups
It's another busy baseball Monday, but those rebels that started their games 30 minutes early are left off the main slate on both sites. What that leaves us with is six games on the main slate. That seems to be a sweet spot for slate size. I seem to do better on these than the […]
