Daily Fantasy Golf DraftKings Picks (PGA DFS): Northern Trust Open
Phil Mickelson was lining up on the 18th hole for a birdie putt, to force a playoff, when CBS showed a stat saying Mickelson was 23-for-23 on putts within six feet for the tournament. Once that stat was shown, I knew he would miss it. The putt lipped out and Vaughn Taylor won, overcoming a six […]

What a Phoenix Open that was. I wonder how many watched Rickie Fowler and Hideki Matsuyama play all four playoff holes, even though the Super Bowl was kicking off during the playoff. I'll be honest, I was switching back and forth between the Super Bowl and the sudden death playoff. Ricky Fowler completely blew that […]
Seth I. Finkelstein 9 years agoPGA DFS: DraftKings Fantasy Golf Sleeper Picks and Advice for the Waste Management Phoenix Open
Golf is a gentleman's game. Fans applaud and are mostly very polite and respectful. The Waste Management Phoenix Open is the complete opposite. It is the rowdiest golf tournament. Most of the fans are very drunk. They dress up in all different costumes, and shout and scream at the players. It's made for TV. If […]
Seth I. Finkelstein 9 years agoUpset Picks For Week 17 Of The NFL Season
I went 2-1 straight up and against the spread this past week. Last week I wrote, "There's due to be one huge upset this week." That upset was the Rams beating the Seahawks in Seattle as 13-point underdogs. I have little interest in games this week that are meaningless, therefore I will focus on games that have playoff […]

Seth I. Finkelstein 9 years agoTop 3 Upset Picks for Week 16 of the NFL Season
Last week my picks were 0-3 straight up, but 2-1 against the spread. I really thought it would be a crazy upset week. It had that feel. Maybe this week sees a nutty upset. Recap of Picks The Giants had no business even being on the same field with the Panthers for three quarters […]
Seth I. Finkelstein 9 years agoTop Three Upset Picks for Week 15 of the NFL Season
Last week I went 3-for-3 in my picks, including picking the Raiders and Broncos as the game to avoid. I am not sure how many survivor pools are still going on, but I doubt there would be many left due to the insane amount of rash upsets there have been this season. Therefore, the last […]
Seth I. Finkelstein 9 years agoNFL Survivor League Picks – Targets & Avoids for Week 14
The NFL is so impossible to predict. I was correct with my 49ers pick upsetting the Bears, but the Saints came up short against the Panthers. I had the Bills over the Texans, but the one lock of the year, New England, lost to the Eagles. There are no locks in football. It still doesn't […]

Week 12 saw one big underdog, the Bears, take down the Packers on Thanksgiving night. Most of the favorites won on Sunday, excluding the Patriots and Giants.

Seth I. Finkelstein 9 years agoNFL Survivor League Picks – Targets & Avoids for Week 12
The best NFL teams usually show themselves by Thanksgiving. It seems likes that's the Patriots, Cardinals, and Panthers, in that order. It will take a complete game to beat those teams. The rest of the league looks incredibly even. Bye weeks are finally done, but the NFL scheduling keeps getting worse and worse. There are […]

Graeme McDowell, -18, held off Russell Knox and Jason Bohn in a playoff to win the OHL Classic at Mayakoba.

I never […]

I really thought NFL Doomsday was a once a year thing. In Week 3 I wrote, "NFL Doomsday has come and gone. Hopefully that will be the last week of its kind this season." Unfortunately I was wrong. This week was more devastating though. How did the Packers lose to the Lions? How did the Bengals […]

Seth I. Finkelstein 9 years agoNFL Survivor League Picks – Targets & Avoids for Week 10
Last week was one of my best weeks picking. Not only did my three teams win, but they all covered the spread. This week features much easier games, with heavy favorites. The Jets open the week hosting the Bills in the much overhyped "Rex Ryan returning to New York" game. There are four divisional games, […]

Everyone was doubting the Bears last week. Not me. I wrote, "I see this being a really close game and a possible upset special pick." If you avoided them and the Ravens, congrats. I thought the Ravens would kill the Browns and when they were up 21-9 it seemed over. The Ravens defense is so bad, […]

The last tournament was played two weeks ago and now golf is back! Wait, is that a good thing? I really wish there were a little golf break as to really make me miss the game.

The first quarter of the season ended with Seattle narrowly escaping in a game that never should have been that close. If the Seahawks lost, many people would have been knocked out of their survivor pool. For my picks; the Browns lost to the Chargers because God hates Cleveland and the Cardinals were shockingly upset by Todd Gurley […]
