College and Pro basketball picks against the spread for the 2011 season
My picks run from Monday to Sunday per each week. I keep my picks from the last two weeks on here so you can see what I picked and why. Sometimes I will tell you what went wrong on a loss or brag a little on a win. Remember these are for entertainment purposes only. Please leave your comments below with your thoughts on my picks. If any of you would like to have a friendly competition let me know. Ties count as a half point on my winning percentage. If there is a certain game or games you would like me to look at please let me know and I will do my best to put it on here. Just try to give me an enough time to look at it. This is my first time trying basketball so it should be fun to see how I do.
