Most online casinos spend more effort trying to separate you from your money than they do trying to give you a good experience. They have all kinds of popup windows, they usually make you download their software, and if do they offer play-in-browser games then you have to register an account before you can play. And if you do register then they start sending you emails trying to get you to deposit real money.
But Bodog is different. They have no popup windows at all, and their practice games play right in your browser, with no download, and no registration required. You don't even have to give up your email address. It couldn't be simpler: Just one click and you're playing the game.
I wish all online casinos showed this much respect for their players. Other casinos practically ask for your first born child to play for free. Meanwhile Bodog is patient and does not twist anybody's arm to play for real money. You can play as long as you like for free with no obligation. The real-money games are available if that's your preference, but if not, you can play the free practice games for as long as you like without hassle. (Visit Bodog)

Following are the results of my NLF picks for the 2005 season. I quit after 15 weeks because of a combination of bad results and my numbers only model does not factor the fact that many teams in the late season have nothing to play for, and thus sit out their best players. Over my 96 picks here are the final results.
Wins: 42
Losses: 53
Push: 1
So over resolved bets my percentage is sad 44.2%. My only excuse is that you can see I have been mainly betting on underdogs. During the 2005 regular season favorites beat the spread 144 times, underdogs covered 103 times, and 9 times the game fell exactly on the spread (according to Mr. NFL spreads). The probability of underdogs doing so badly assuming a 50/50 chance of winning over 247 resolved bets is 0.45%, of 1 in 220.
