Sad item jumped off the page today, really sad. I'm sure many of you guys are beginning to realize how the calendar starts flipping those pages faster and faster as time passes. This one made me shake my head. It was on this date back in 1986 that Maryland basketball standout Len Bias passed away from a cocaine induced seizure. It does not seem remotely possible to me that it was 28 years ago. Just the day prior he had been smiling for the cameras along side Red Auerbach of the Celtics as he was announced as their number one draft pick. We will never know how things would have played out for Bias had he lived but it's my personal opinion he would have had a stellar career. That team was loaded and with Bias added, it's scary to think about. Such a total waste of a young guys life. All over some blow. Still makes me shake my head. Maybe that would have been a one night thing for him anyway but I'm also skeptical of that. Coke is a tough thing to beat and I've seen some strong men fall victim to it.
Okay, a free selection. It's an afternoon play and it's on the Brewers as they conclude their series in Arizona against Kirk Gibson's Diamondbacks. On the business side I have a Rabid Dog release in action today. Have only had two baseball Rabid Dogs thus far this season and we've cashed both. I am confident that will move to 3-0 after today. The long term record for these speaks on it's own. Anyway, it's loaded up and ready to roll.
I want to once again thank those who continue to sign up early for the football package. It's very much appreciated. Last season between college & NFL we made exactly 100 units. In the NFL we hit on a documented 60% winners for the entire season covering a total of 153 games released. The Triple Stars in the NFL went 20-4 for the year, 83%. On the college side I hit at a 58% clip for the season after a total of 171 games released. Also nailed down 70% of the College Triple Stars. Anyway, I have always felt strongly football was where I hang my hat in this business. I feel confident that 2014 will also be a solid year as I make a run at bettering last years results. To those who have come aboard for the ride, I say thank you once again. Okay, that is it for today guys. Best of luck with your action. Enjoy the games!
