Underground Report Week 14

A rough week has Banner down, out and struggling for air. Years of oddsmaking has justified that August brings out the great in good teams, and the sheer ugliness in bad teams. Surely Banner, being the MLB guru that he is, must be aware of this. Nonetheless, it's difficult watching some of the selected dirt dogs. I think I speak for us all when I say I miss our 70% efficiency weeks. Here's the damage:

2 Weeks Ago: 8-6 (Sides: 7-5 Totals: 1-1) +3.5 units

Last Week: 11-15 (Sides: 10-11 Totals: 1-4) -5.5 units

Overall: 180-143-8 (Sides: 125-94 Totals: 55-49-8)

-2 units over the span of 2 weeks isn't something to cry over, but again, we all want our 70% back! Side winners drop to 57.1%, overall stumbles to 55.7%. Take advantage of the Bonus' during these times of Banner economic hardship.

New York New York! Internet availability prolonged my scheduled 1 day hiatus, but after 5 days of non-stop partying in the BIG Apple, things return to normal here @ Sports Betting Fix. Everyone will be happy to know that while I was partaking in one of the most treacherous Pub crawls of all time (3rd Ave & 22nd St. - 2nd Ave & 96th st.!), our MLB Guru was doing what he does best.....picking winners! Final tally: +21 units! WHAT a comeback. Here's a breakdown of last week's heroics:

Last Week: 17-7-1 (Sides: 12-4 Totals: 5-3-1) +21 units

Side efficiency climbs back to 59%, overall to 57.4%. A solid recovery week had Mr. Fix It smiling ear to ear at Monday's Mets-Dbacks game. Citi Field...WHAT a place to watch a ball game.
