I just handicapped my first NFL game using AI. (Searched:Why is Seattle favored at Arizona). Got a somewhat complete listing of info and stats, including a reference to sharp money. Not sure how valuable it is, but might be useful when you wonder what you are missing on a game.

As we build our college hoops power ratings, keep this in mind; Older players. Portal rankings.

I have seen multiple videos of Bryson attempting 7 times to drive #1. Has anyone reported on the results? Where did the shots end up?

People are standing in a block-long line for an hour for a free $7 hot dog. Sign of a recession when some people’s time is worth less than $7 an hour?

Many fans want their coaches to be Ditka-esque, fire and brimstone passion and make the players feel and embrace the pressure. This Ryder Cup might provide some evidence as to whether this kind of hyped up motivation works with pro athletes these days.

Another: Sunday singles, 1995 at Oak Hill, Seve in rough way right (on old #5 I think). I was right behind him. He hit a 6i to birdie range from ~ 185 over a huge tree 20 yds in front of him. Hitting 6 irons that high was very uncommon. Most amazing. Only he could pull it off.

This is about business, not politics. You know the spreadsheet jockeys on Wall Street calculated $ that Disney would lose in cancelled subs to Disney+, Hulu, Espn and the impact on Disney World/Land from suspending Kimmel. And lawsuits. Disney ran the #s too and reversed course.

It is Ryder Cup Week! The one constant about Ryder Cup tv coverage over the years is that @NBCSports and @peacock will be behind covering matches live and will show a lot of replays because of all the ads they run.

Chicago weather looks much clearer than it did this morning. Bears-Cowboys looks now like it will be dry.

Staying away from the big Survivor % picks today. No Seattle or Packers for me. Due for a Survivor bloodbath.

I do not understand the @VSiNLive love for Warren Sharp. I subscribed to his service one season. Sooo dishonest. Gave picks with days-old lines and lied about his record. If bettors want to get rid of scammers, turn off the shows that give them attention.

For those speculating about Soldier Field conditions today..,the field is typically covered by a tarp until a few hours before game time. So rain the last few days should not matter. Rain this afternoon and during the game likely will matter.

Love to see the pro-USA bettors bidding up prices on the USA for next week’s Ryder Cup. Bought a ticket on Europe to lift the trophy (win or tie) at +132.

One thing I will miss about Texas — taco trucks. Chicago could use some. Maybe my next business..

Bears fans are in a perpetual cycle: 1) QB is not good enough. 2) Coach is not good enough. 3) GM is not good enough. 4) Team president is not good enough. 5) Owners are inept. Currently, Bears fans are at stages 3-5, but may go full circle to #1 before long.

Reminder: The atrocious Cowboys secondary is coached by Eberflus. He has a special talent at getting his teams to be bad.

Northwestern at their own 13, 4th and 1, down 31-0, early 4th Q, they run a straight dive up the middle from the shotgun. Stuffed for a 2 yd loss. Time to pay zero attention to NW. On the don’t bet list. Coaches that do that cannot be taken seriously.

What a night for Boomer rock in Chicago — The Who at United Center, Bonnie Raitt and Jimmy Vaughn at Chicago Theater and Tedeschi Trucks and Government Mule at Northerly Island. (We are at TTB)
