Paul Bovi Handicapper
One of the ways that sports handicappers promote themselves is to purchase infomercial time on radio stations. Scott Sprietzer is good at this, Tom Hatfield of Razor Sharp Sports, much too rehearsed and clichéd.
Paul Bovi, who is on a series of sites, is now making the rounds on a few radio stations and we will give credit where it is due. His information is good and valuable. We will keep an ear out for him and take notes, verifying their accuracy and using them in out handicapping at OffshoreInsiders.com
Jimmy Spats Tout Makes Joe Wiz Look Good
We love those boiler room guys selling their service. Today
I get a guy from somebody called Jimmy Spats, a
tout. The sales guy trying to sell me picks actually admitted to me he smoked
pot and did mushrooms before going to work.
The MasterLockLine, the power of 620
sports services behind every selection, said he did have a great NFL
year several years back, but in eight years has one
top 10 NFL and one top 30 college football appearance.
But his sales turds rate with

NFL Sports Betting Picks and Vegas Odds Spread Breakdowns
For those ready to beat the NFL odds, here are quarterback rotations, news and notes and more for tonight’s NFL action to beat the NFL preseason lines
Saturday, August 22
Panthers-Dolphins
Lions-Browns
The Detroit Lions could be without their three top receivers for the second straight game including of course star receiver Calvin Johnson who is out, while Bryant Johnson and Dennis Northcutt are doubtful. Tight ends Brandon Pettigrew and Casey Fitzsimmons are also likely out. S Louis Delmas and DT Grady Jackson though will see their first action of the season.
Top overall pick Matt Stafford starts at QB for
Top expert pick on this game: No. 1 Guarantee NFL service has their Non-Conference Guaranteed Lock of the Preseason and they are selling it for $50. (guarantees and Pay After are by sports services to their clients. We can’t enforce guarantees on re-releases). We have that same Lions/Browns side for pennies on the dollar on the MasterLockLine. Click now to purchase sports betting picks from the top sports services or you can get more information and a free sports pick
Chargers-Arizona
Arizona RB Chris “Beanie” Wells is questionable as his right ankle was re-injured. He probably would see minimal carries even if he does play.
Kurt Warner and the rest of the starters will play about a quarter for the Redbirds. Brian St. Pierre will be the second QB followed by historic bust Matt Leinart.
Top expert pick on this game: Stevie Vincent has made mastering over/under a huge part of why he is the future of sports betting. Superstar Stevie Vincent is 4-1 this week in pro football and has four more tonight including the Interconference Preseason O/U of the YEAR. The other three are game sides. Thanks to all who locked in to the full season pick pack! Click now to purchase
Bills-Packers
Packers starting LB Nick Barnett returned to practice but is still doubtful. His replacements Brandon Chillar and Desmond Bishop have played well in his absence.
Bills WR Terrell Owens has been downgraded to out.
Steelers-Redskins
The Redskins are off getting shutout 23-0 to
Likewise, the Steelers offensive starters will play about a quarter. Though starting QB Ben Roethlisberger made the trip after tweaking his ankle, the Steelers said he will not play.
The Redskins will have three players making their preseason debuts: DT Albert Haynesworth, RB Clinton Portis, No. 1 WR Santana Moss and CB Carlos Rogers.
When these teams met last year in the regular season, there was a large contingent of Steelers fans at the game. Redskins owner Dan Snyder purchases 50,000 white towels to assure the game will not be dominated by Steelers Terrible Towels.

Raiders-49ers
San Francisco RB Frank Gore sat out the NFLX opener, but is probable for Saturday.
Justin Fargas will not start at RB, but head coach Tom Cable did not indicate if it will be Darren McFadden or Michael Bush who gets the start.
Alex Smith starts and QB for the 49ers, but he and Shaun Hill will get an even amount of snaps with the first team. RB Frank Gore and WR Isaac Bruce will play the first series, but probably not longer than that.
Top expert pick on this game: The No. 1 ranked football service both since 2005 and all-time is a service out of Las Vegas that has hit 58 percent or higher with “Vegas Insider’ releases nine of the 11 years they’ve been in the business, exceeding 62 percent five times.

Bears-NY Giants
Three key Bears who sat out the opener have been practicing: Greg Olsen, Tommie Harris and Matt Forte. All are expected to play. Forte and Olsen are two of new QB Jay Cutler’s best target. He was a horrible 5 of 10 for just 64 yards.
LT Orlando Pace didn’t not play every snap with the starters last week for
Likely to not play for the Giants are LB Antonio Pierce, S Kenny Phillips, G Richard Seubert and Chris Snee, DT Chris Canty, and CB Aaron Rogers. Probable are CB Corey Webster, DE Justin Tuck, and DT Rocky Bernard.
The Giants had a short week following the dramatic last second win. Remember, they are looking to replace last year’s top two receivers Amani Toomer and Plaxico Burress. WR Steve Smith is questionable.
Lovie Smith, the Bears head coach, told the starters that he is looking for positive momentum in the second quarter before taking them out.
Top expert pick on this game: There is no question is comes from the best in the business GodsTips. Both losses were tough ones, especially the Chiefs failing to score on 4th and goal from the one-yard line. But we win too much to fret. That includes our current 5-2 NFL run.
