A professional sports analyst and bettor who wrote his senior thesis at Yale on the inefficiencies in the MLB betting market, Rufus Peabody worked at Las Vegas Sports Consultants prior to co-developing the Massey-Peabody rankings, and his work can be seen weekly these days in the Wall Street Journal and at The Linemakers/Sporting News, as well.  Occasionally, he'll even slum it here.  And by that, we mean, hit the bigtime.  Rufus sits down with Host Gill Alexander and Pregame pros Marco D'Angelo and Vegas Runner in a feisty breakdown of this weekend's board, including the Dallas Cowboys at Chicago Bears, Carolina Panthers at New Orleans Saints, Minnesota Vikings at Baltimore Ravens, Detroit Lions at Philadelphia Eagles, Tennessee Titans at Denver Broncos, and Seattle Seahawks at San Francisco 49ers.  Plus, the panel isolates the big favorite(s) most likely to lose outright and the least appealing game(s) from a betting standpoint, on Friday's Betting Dork (December 6, 2013).

The band is back together.  The first return guest in the 2013 MegaPod series, National Football Post's Joe Fortenbaugh hangs out with Host Gill Alexander and Pregame pros Marco D'Angelo and Vegas Runner to complete the quartet and weigh in on all things betting for the upcoming NFL weekend.  The San Francisco 49ers at Washington Redskins, Denver Broncos at New England Patriots, Indianapolis Colts at Arizona Cardinals, Chicago Bears at St. Louis Rams, and Carolina Panthers at Miami Dolphins are all discussed, among other matchups, as are the big favorite most likely to lose outright and the game(s) to be avoided.  It's all on Friday's Betting Dork (November 22, 2013)

It is a record that may never be broken.  In 2011, the four-member Sans Souci team won the Hilton SuperContest with a remarkable 72.5% win rate.  Now, for the first time, team member and LVH SuperContest weekend co-creator Brady Kannon joins his Pregame counterparts Marco D'Angelo and Vegas Runner on the MegaPod.  Host Gill Alexander navigates the crew through the Miami Dolphins at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Dallas Cowboys at New Orleans Saints, Philadelphia Eagles at Green Bay Packers, St. Louis Rams at Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars at Tennessee Titans, and more.  Plus, the panel votes on which favorite of more than a touchdown is most likely to lose outright, and which game on the board begs for a pass, on Friday's Betting Dork (November 8, 2013).

Once a year, they go guestless just to remember where they came from.  This is that week.  Host Gill Alexander and Pregame pros Marco D'Angelo and Vegas Runner examine this weekend's pro football menu, looking to unearth angles you may not have considered.  The Seattle Seahawks at St. Louis Rams, Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings, Washington Redskins at Denver Broncos, and San Francisco 49ers at Jacksonville Jaguars (at Wembley Stadium in London) are among the games discussed.  Plus, as always, the big favorite that's most likely to lose outright and the game you should want no part of, on Friday's Betting Dork (October 25, 2013).
