Crick's Picks: NCAAB, NBA, NHL, & MLB - 4/5/25

Well yesterday was pretty much a "Wash" Folks.... Not much more to say beyond that.. We were up or down less than a unit in all 3 categories last night, and ended up netting a small loser, but we were still only down about a 1/2-Unit on the day... Could be better... Could be worse... We've got a MASSIVE SLATE today across the Sportsverse, and we've got a SOLID CARD to FIRE AT EM.. Let's see if we can find a WINNER or two laying in the weeds!! You & Your Beautiful Families STAY SAFE Out There!!! Good Luck & Good Gamblin!!!!
