We ended up splitting last week’s parlay picks going 0-2 ATS on Saturday and 2-0 ATS on Sunday. I regretted taking the points with Orlando after the Roughnecks got ahead of the 9.5-point spread less than five minutes into the first quarter. I had a feeling I’d lose the over in the San Antonio/Seattle game with the commentators going off about it being the highest total of the season. A total of 21 points hit the board and we got killed. Sunday was much better. Arlington and St. Louis played to a... 

I’ve rued the day I had to sit in front of the computer and recap the massacre that went down with last week’s XFL parlay picks. It all started with my first bad beat of the season in the Week 3 opener between Seattle and Vegas. We backed the Vipers +3 and looked well on our way towards cashing that ticket in for 55+ minutes. But then Ben Dinucci stepped back on a 4th down with no timeouts an... 

We came a 4th quarter field goal in the Brahmas/Guardians tilt away from sweeping our Week 2 XFL parlay picks at the online sportsbook! While the St. Louis/Seattle game should’ve flown over and covered all numbers, we still ended up cashing a ticket due to getting in early. The DC Defenders rumbled their way to an outright win at Vegas to move to 2-0, while the Houston Roughnecks ultimately got the job done against Arlington after coughing up an early double-digit lead by not allowing a single point to the Renegades in the second half. The lone loser proved to be the under in Orlando where a Guardians penalty aided second half touchdown drive and Brahmas blocked punt that led directly to another score cost us dearly. Even so, the combined score just managed to just crawl over the 39.5-point impost. Now 5-3 ATS through two weeks, let’s see if we can’t bust out the broom in Week 3 and nail this 4-teamer! ... 

We had mixed results with last week’s XFL parlay picks in going 2-2 against the spread but did find ourselves in a position to cash all four tickets. The Vegas Vipers got out to a commanding 14-3 halftime lead, but turnovers and the offense going into the tank forced us to need a late game backdoor touchdown to secure the ticket cash. The under looked solid through three quarters in the Orlando/Houston matchup even with the Guardians controversial opening drive touchdown, but then variance and turnovers reared its ugly head to bust the position in the 4Q. The football gods giveth and taketh with Sunday’s picks on the Battlehawks and Sea Dragons. We had no business cashing in with St. Louis in that miraculous comeback win, but also had no business losing with Seattle who outgained DC by over 150 yards. With more info to dissect both from statistical and philosophical standpoints, let’s see if we can’t cash that 4-teamer in Week 2 XFL betting! ... 

The third reboot of the XFL begins in earnest this weekend with four games lined up for the pleasure of football bettors around the world looking to sink their teeth into more pigskin with the 2022-23 NFL betting season wrapping up last Sunday. The opening weeks of secondary professional football leagues are also tough to get a handle on not knowing a majority of the players or what the respe... 

The reincarnation of the XFL has had a troubled start to say the least. Not only has it had to compete against the new USFL and the AAF, but we have only had five weeks of games since the league was announced in January 2018. The league began play on February 8, 2020, but the season was suspended in mid-March due to the COVID pandemic, and the league underwent some organizational changed that pushed back play to 2023. Finally, the XFL is set to take the field again, and the action will start the week after Super Bowl LVII on February 18, 2023. ...
