The NHL season was supposed to start this past week, but of course, it didn't. The players and owners are still grid locked, and there's no resolution in sight. So what's the solution? I have no idea, but I have seen a few suggestions that I think wo… more »

I'm starting at the bottom, and working my way up, and the database is done (at least for now). So, the next obvious choice is the data layer. I'm going with OJB.NET as my O/R mapping tool. Why? Mainly because it was the only one I was somewhat famil… more »

It's late, and I'm getting tired, so I'll make it quick. Miami vs. Buffalo (-6.5): Week 6, and we already have a meaningless match up. The good news is that one team will not be winless after this one is over. Who will that be? Buffalo, but Miami cover… more »

After going 19-12 in the two weeks against the spread, I started to feel pretty good about my abilities. I even wondered how people couldn't make money at this. And contemplated what putting actual money on the games would be like. Then on Saturday, I s… more »

Week three is on us already. Can you believe it? The season is already over 11% over! A lot has been going on, so let's get to the picks. Pittsburgh vs. Miami (-1.5): Both teams haven't looked good. I picked Miami because they are at home. No other rea… more »
