My best betting memory is the New England Patriots covering the spread against the Atlanta Falcons in the Super Bowl LI after trailing 28-3. Even with Tom Brady at the helm, that wager felt like a lost cause. To win a bet in a marquee event in such thrilling fashion was incredible.

I’ll let recency bias take over here and go with the San Francisco 49ers losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII in 2024. I was convinced the Niners were the best team in the league by a clear margin and – even as an Eagles fan – made a big futures bet on the 49ers to win it all the August prior to the season. For them to blow a double-digit point lead to the Chiefs – just a year after they crushed my soul beating the Eagles – was so disappointing.

Dodgers vs Braves Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 16, 2024 • 11:48 AM ET

Max Fried has reverse splits and has handled righties better than lefties this season. This bodes poorly against a lineup including Freddie Freeman and Shohei Ohtani. Our Dodgers vs. Braves predictions like Yoshinobu Yamamoto to do his part as well.

Rangers vs Mariners Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 14, 2024 • 10:52 AM ET

Logan Gilbert is amid the best season of his career, and the Mariner ace has been especially dominant at home. With Texas sans its best hitter, we're backing the right-hander to shine in tonight's divisional battle.

Dodgers vs Braves Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 13, 2024 • 11:10 AM ET

Tonight's matchup against Spencer Schwellenbach heavily favors the Dodgers and we expect Mookie Betts and Shohei Ohtani to be at the forefront of that offensive attack.

Rangers vs Mariners Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 12, 2024 • 10:39 AM ET

Kumar Rocker has had a roundabout way to the majors thanks largely to injury issues. But the Rangers prospect is making his MLB debut tonight against the Mariners and he has a chance to put his electric strikeout stuff on display.

Orioles vs Red Sox Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 11, 2024 • 10:46 AM ET

Dean Kremer limits damage, suppressing hits consistently. He sometimes loses his command, resulting in walks and a shorter leash, which only further boosts our chances at cashing the Under 5.5 hits allowed in tonight's MLB picks.

Rangers vs Diamondbacks Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 10, 2024 • 10:51 AM ET

Josh Smith has been red hot at the plate over the last two weeks and our Rangers vs. Diamondbacks predictions expect that to continue tonight.

Royals vs Yankees Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 9, 2024 • 10:57 AM ET

While Brady Singer has been rock solid, he has stark home/road splits, which won't serve him well as the Royals visit the Bronx. Aaron Judge has been quiet but he has generally hit righties well and the rest of the lineup is littered with lefty bats.

White Sox vs Red Sox Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 7, 2024 • 11:24 AM ET

Rafael Devers has been on a heater, and against doormat opposition, our best bet for tonight is backing his bat to do more damage.

Guardians vs Dodgers Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 6, 2024 • 10:44 AM ET

Matthew Boyd has been a welcoming addition to the Guardians since being called up, but don't expect him to stick around long against the Dodgers.

Tigers vs Padres Prediction, Picks & Odds for Tonight’s MLB Game

Sep 5, 2024 • 10:48 AM ET

The Padres bullpen had to work hard for the win on Wednesday, and our MLB expert believes that Martin Perez will be asked to help preserve the relief corps as he takes the mound vs. the Detroit Tigers tonight.
