Crick's Picks: NBA Playoff Preview
These are not Sportspicks "Recommended Picks"
These are MY "Future's" Picks for the NBA Playoffs.. Make sure and pay attention to the "Unit Sizing" on these picks, as it can greatly effect your overall PROFITABILITY!! When placing my "Future's" bets I try to focus on the teams that have the most "VALUE" in my opinion. I hardly EVER bet on "Favorites" when it comes to these picks.. I simply don't see much value on betting the teams with lower odds, when dealing with something that has such HIGH VARIABILITY. You'll notice my picks "To Win The Championship" aren't even the team I picked in this video... I simply didn't see enough value in their current odds. Just wanted to be CLEAR on that.. Hope you guy's enjoy this. Good Luck this weekend... and Let's get ready to MAKE SOME CHEESE!!!!

Crick's Picks: MLB - 6/3/25
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.... CAN WE PLEASE HAVE SOMEONE PLAY SOMETHING BESIDES BASEBALL?!?!?! Yesterday very well may have been the WORST INDIVIDUAL DAY I'VE EVER HAD since I started releasing "Crick's Picks"!! I've gotta go "Back to the Drawing Board" when it comes to the Diamond, because it's been DEVASTATING the last few days!! I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR FEEDBACK, in recent days, and please know that it DOESN'T FALL ON DEAF EARS!! I understand that I'm getting a little "too cute" when it comes to trying to find VALUE in Baseball, and I probably need to revert back to "Occam's Razor" & know that... The simplest explanation is probably THE BEST!! I probably will start laying a little more "juice" when it comes to the MLB, because I've been HOOKED countless times now trying to get GREEDY for the value!! 100% OF NOTHING IS STILL NOTHING CRICKETT!!!! We'll see how it goes moving forward, but as I've told y'all NUMEROUS TIMES BEFORE NOW.... Your BEST BET is probably just to FADE my Baseball plays & STACK YOUR BREAD!! However, I know some of you are LOYAL TO THE VERY END & I appreciate that more than y'all could ever know... BUT... There's a FINE LINE between being LOYAL and being FOOLISH, so REAL TALK.... TREAD LIGHTLY with my Baseball Picks, because I'M ...
