SFTC Picks for Wednesday May 1

A NEW MONTH IS FINALLY HERE!!!!!!!!


For most of todays picks I will post just a little bit of info but I will try and have full writeups up by this weekend. Best of luck to everyone and let me know if anyone has any questions. Make sure to follow me on twitter @danossftcpicks





245 Barcelona win- Barcelona is down 0-4 in the aggregate meaning they need a lot of goals to attempt to win this game. I think they win this game but don't score nearly enough to advance to. Prediction is Barcelona 3-1. Confidence:2

245 No Messi goal- I think Barcelona will come out looking to score early and Messi is the most likely candidate.  HE IS NOT IN THE STARTING LINEUP ! Confidence:5

335 Los Angeles Angels- Confidence:3

347 No atleast 1 doesn't score- Depends on the first half but if the score is only 1-0 at the half then I might switch. But I think this is a much safer pick. Confidence:2

705 Philadelphia Phillies- I like Trevor Bauer and could see the Indians winning but I cant pick against Cliff Lee. He is one the best in the game for a reason. Confidence:3

705 Boston Bruins- I like Boston and think they are the second best team in the East. If you want to pick a game based solely on Vegas then this is the best pick. But I don't see it. Boston has struggled down the stretch going 3-7. Granted they are at home and that is an advantage but I think Boston struggles against good offensive teams. I think Lupul and Kessel could score enough to win this game. But my pick is Boston they beat Toronto 3 times this year I'm just not as confident as other people. Confidence:3

705 Atlanta Braves- Could see this going other way. Not a huge fan of Maholm but I think he bounces back after a bad outing. Confidence:2

707 Boston Red Sox- Better pitcher on the mound...check....better lineup...check. If this was in Boston I would be very confident. Confidence:4

710 Celtics- I don't think they win this game but I think they keep this game close. It could come down to late in the game if they foul when its out of reach. Confidence:2

710 Knicks halftime lead- Confidence:2

735 Penguins by 2- I would usually take the other side and this pick is semi biased. But I think the Penguins realize if they don't make it to atleast the Eastern Conference finals then this year is a complete bust. They have too much talent top to bottom. If Crosby was playing I would feel great about this pick. Even though he isn't playing I think the Pens make a statement in the opening game 4-2. Confidence:4

805 Chicago Cubs- Confidence:2

805 Texas Rangers- Confidence:3

805  Hawks 3 pointers- Confidence:2

830 Any other Result- Depends on first half I'll update my pick on twitter if I'm switching. Confidence:2

940 Rockets win or single digit loss- Thinking Harden bounces back and they keep this close. Confidence:3

945 Yes Durant scores 5 in each quarter- This pick seems to easy. Even though this just a half prop I am pretty confident in this pick because Westbrook is out. Confidence:5

1005 Monterrey- Confidence:2

1010 Los Angeles Dodgers- Think Beckett pitches well tonight. Confidence:3

1010 Baltimore Orioles- Chen is good even though he struggles some time on the road. But Harang has been awful so far this season. Confidence:3

1035 San Jose Sharks- Think the sharks match up well against the Canucks. They usually play them tough at home. Confidence:2

SFTC Picks for 4/30


I hate that I  have to write this announcement but I do. As a current college student it is now finals week which means hell week. This means I most likely wont be doing any sort of writeups for about the next week. But I promise as soon as finals are over I will have writeups back up and I will make sure my picks will continue from where I left off. Over the next couple of days I will just be posting my picks but I probably wont research the games as much as I usually do. I know this stinks but it will just be for the first couple of days in the month. But school is my top priority at the moment believe it or not (LOL). Best of luck to everyone and hopefully one of us will win the stash in May.


1000 FC UFA- Confidence:1

245 Real Madrid- Confidence:2

245 29th minute or earlier- Confidence:2

347 No goal- Confidence:1

Friday, April 26, 2013

SFTC Picks for Saturday 4/27





745 Man City by 2- I think this is the better pick. Man City is really tough at home and I don't think West Ham scores. So I think this will either by 1-0 or 2-0 Man City. Confidence:2

1230 Newcastle United- Think these are 2 evenly matched teams. The home team has won almost all the recent games in this series. I think a draw is a good call. Confidence:2

105 New York Mets- I don't like Pettibone or the Phillies. But I don't want to pick Marcum on his first start especially when some Phillies hit him pretty well. Kendrick pitched a CG yesterday to give the Phillies bullpen some rest. Confidence:2

105 Cincinnati Reds- The Reds have not played well on the road this year. But I think a lot of people see Haren and think of him as a solid pitcher. Sadly he hasn't pitched well this year and I don't think he will tomorrow. Leake is a very good road pitcher. I don't see the Reds losing 3 in a row to the Nats. Confidence:4

105 Atlanta Braves- Confidence:3

145 Lucas Glover- Both have shot really well this last 2 rounds. Confidence:2

200 Atletico Madrid- I think is a trap game considering how many people pick Real Madrid as soon as they come up. I checked the odds because I was unsure of what to think. They are the favorite to win outright. Real Madrid has played well at Atletico which is why im slightly hesitant on this pick. Found out Ronaldo wont be playing. Confidence:5

210 Chicago Bulls-  Tough at home. Confidence:3

405 Oakland Athletics- Confidence:3

405 Toronto Blue Jays- Confidence:2

410 Texas Rangers- Confidence:3

417 Montreal Impact- Confidence:2

440 Memphis Grizzlies- Confidence:2

700 Boston Bruins- They need to win this game to win the division. Confidence:2

700 Detroit Red Wings- They need this game to try to make the playoffs. Confidence:3

705 Indiana Pacers- I think they are the better team and just match up really well against the Hawks. Confidence:3

705 Paul George- Confidence:2

707 Montreal Canadeins- They need this game to try to win the division. Confidence:3

710 Tampa Bay Rays- I really like Moore but the Rays struggle on the road. Floyds numbers are a little misleading as he usually pitches well at home. This game should be tight. Confidence:3

710 Chicago Cubs- I am only giving them a slight edge here because Wood is pitching. Confidence:2

730 Minnesota Wild- They need this game to stay alive.  Confidence:4

740 Any Other(Nascar)- Confidence:1

800 St. Louis Blues- Confidence:3

830  Pacers- Depends on how first half goes- Confidence:2

840 San Francisco Giants- Thinking about switching this pick. Have to give an edge to the Giants here because of Zito. Both of these teams like seeing this pitchers. Confidence: 2

905 LA Galaxy- Confidence:2

910 Los Angeles Dodgers- Confidence:3

930 Oklahoma City- Confidence:3

1000 Edmonton Oilers- Confidence:2

1110 Roy Nelson by KO- I think this is just a better pick. I  like Kongo but he is old. He has not had a good fight recently and I think Nelson will prove hes a better fighter. Confidence:3

1130 Michael Bisping- It really pains me to say this but he is the better fighter in this matchup. As much as I have rooted against in almost everyone of his fights I think the needs this fight badly. I think this fight goes to a decision  and Bisping usually does well in those kind of fights. Confidence:3

1205 Jones wins before 3rd round- Jones is one of the best fighters in the world. I think he puts on a show tonight. It does scare me that I  will probably pick this on my streak tonight. I think Jones definitely wins but it wouldn't surprise me if Sonnen made it to the 3rd round. I think jones will KO him in the second but I think Sonnen is tough.  Confidence:5

SFTC Picks for Friday 4/26





840 Justin Rose- Confidence:2

1230  Esbjerg-Confidence:1

130 Jason Dufner- Confidence:1

230 Hannover 96- Confidence:2

300 Rayo Vallecano- Confidence:1

503 Maryland by 3- Confidence:2

630 No Geno Smith- I don't think he is that good and I am hearing Jacksonville likes Matt Barkley. Confidence:3

700 New York Islanders- Confidence:3

705 New York Yankees- Nova has pitched great this year but I think he should get a win tonight. Confidence:3

705 Washington Nationals- These are 2 of the best teams in the NL. I give and edge to the Nationals because Zimmerman is pitching. Confidence:3

708 Detroit Tigers- Confidence:2

710 Chicago Cubs- Confidence:3

710 Philadelphia Phillies- Confidence:3

720 Big 12- Depends whether or not Geno goes in the top 3. If he doesn't go then I think this is where he gets drafted and I would change my pick to Big 12. Confidence:3

805 Boston Celtics- Confidence:2

806 Green and Garnett- Confidence:3

810 Tampa Bay Rays- Confidence:2

810 Texas Rangers- Confidence:3

930 2 or fewer- I'm thinking Smith and Anthony are the obvious ones but might change depending on how the game is playing. Confidence:2

940 Colorado Rockies- Confidence:3

1005 Oakland A's - Confidence:2

1035 Golden State- Confidence:2

1040 San Antonio Spurs- I am surprised this pick made it up. Lakers have so many injuries I just cant see how they can win this game. They are already playing with a short bench should mean there legs will be even more tired than before. Confidence:6

SFTC Picks for Thursday 4/25

I apologize in advance for this but I have some work I have to do. I will create a page with my mock draft for the NFL draft tonight. I will also be on twitter updating my picks. I will not have time for writeups though.

I am also not seeing any picks that I feel remotely good about.



830 Bubba Watson- Confidence:2

1230 Malmo win or draw- Confidence:2

110 Los Angeles Dodgers- Confidence:2

130 Rickie Fowler- Confidence:1

305 Chelsea- Confidence:3

305 Fenerbahce- Confidence:2

700 New York Islanders- Confidence:3

705 Washington Nationals- Confidence:2

705 Bucks single digit loss- Confidence:2

710 Chicago Cubs- Confidence:3

800 Winnipeg Jets- Confidence:2

800 St. Louis Blues- Confidence:4

800 NOin top 3- I like Floyd and think he is who Oakland wants. But im hearing they might not pick him and the Raiders have a tendency to be unpredictable. I also am hearing this might be a pick to get traded. Confidence:2

810 Chicago White Sox- Confidence:2

810 Texas Rangers- Confidence:2

830 Dallas Stars- Confidence:2

830 Chicago Bulls- Confidence:3

833 Offense - I think this pick is almost a lock unless all 3 tackles go off the board by pick 5. Confidence:5

857 Sec or ACC- Confidence:4

925 Any other state- Confidence:2

940 Colorado Rockies- Confidence:2

940 Memphis Grizzlies- Confidence:3

940 Linebacker or Safety- If they don't trade this pick these are the main 2 positions they need outside of a DT. Not sure why every is picking every other. Confidence:3

1005 Oakland Athletics- Confidence:2

1010 Los Angeles Angels- Confidence:2

1015 yes-  Confidence:2

Tuesday, April 23, 2013

SFTC Picks for Wednesday 4/24








1230 Rennes- Tough game to do a writeup for especially to find information on why to pick either of these teams. Neither one look that good. Renee has lost its last 5 games. Troyes is in last in the standings and plays awful on the road. Hope Rennes pulls out a victory but draw isn't out of the question. Confidence:1

210 Houston Astros- Harrell and Saunders are both average pitchers. Harrell I think is a little more consistent and had just one bad start this year. Saunders on the other hand has really struggled on the road. That's basically my only takeaway from this game. Confidence:3

245 Borussia Dortmund win or draw- Just playing it safe thinking a draw is a strong possibility especially for a team playing at home. Not a hole lot to say. Its the first leg and both of these teams are good and evenly matched. Confidence:2

245 Any other player- Once again just to be safe I would go with any other. Ronaldo is the clear favorite to score first for Real Madrid. But there are other things that can happen. I'm thinking at least one team scores just hoping its Dortmund. Confidence:2

347 Draw- Depends on the first half. But I think this will be the safer play. Confidence:1

705 New York Mets- Confidence:4

705 3 or fewer- Confidence:2

707 Toronto Maple Leafs- Confidence:2

710 Thunder DD- Confidence:3

710 Tampa Bay Rays- Confidence:2

735 Hawks 3 pointers- Confidence:2

735 Detroit Red Wings- Confidence:4

815 No XBH- Confidence:2

900 Brazil by 2- Confidence:1

940 Spurs DD- Confidence:2

1005 Phoenix Coyotes- Confidence:2

1005 Santos Laguna- Confidence:1

1005 Texas Rangers- Confidence:3

1010 San Diego Padres- Confidence:2

Monday, April 22, 2013

SFTC Picks for Tuesday 4/23






1100 Ostrava- More of a gut call then anything. Jilhava is ahead of them in the standings. Ostrava doesn't play that well at home but Jilhava is not a good road team. A draw wouldn't shock me. Confidence:1

245 Barcelona win or draw- I'm going with the safe pick plus its hard to pick against Barcelona. I think Barcelona will want to come out and score a couple goals but that doesn't always mean they will play for a draw. Not really sure though. I'm thinking 2-2 draw or 2-1 Bayern. Confidence:2

245 Yes lead once- Confidence:1

310 Atlanta Braves- Think they are a better team that has a better pitcher on the mound as well as the better lineup. I have been really impressed with the Rockies this year but Francis hasn't pitched well. Confidence:4

347 Yes Barcelona scores- If they don't score in first half I will like this pick a lot. Confidence:2

705 Toronto Blue Jays- Cant pick against Dickey and don't have faith in Gonzalez. Confidence:3

705 Washington Nationals- Confidence:3

705 Montreal Canadiens- Confidence:2

705 New York Islanders- Islanders need this game to make the playoffs. Even though they are young I think they will realize how important this game is. Confidence:4

710 Los Angeles Dodgers- Confidence:3

735 Boston Bruins- Confidence:2

735 Any Other-Milwaukee Bucks- I think they put up more a fight and don't get blown out again. I do expect Miami to win this game. Confidence:2

805 Los Angeles Kings- Confidence:3

805 Nashville Predators- Confidence:4

810 Miami Marlins- I like Nolassco and not a big fan of Pelfrey. Confidence:1

810 Seattle Mariners- I really like Iwakuma think he is underrated but it will be interesting to see how he pitches on the road. Confidence:3

810 Knicks winning margin- The Celtics need this game bad but the Knicks are one of the hotter teams in the NBA. Confidence:2

810 Jeff Green and Garnett- 2 is better than 1. Confidence:3

840 Colorado Rockies- Confidence:2

930 3 or 4- Confidence:2

1005 Texas Rangers- Confidence:2

1010 Milwaukee Brewers- Confidence:3

1015 Arizona Diamondbacks- I think they bounce back. Corbin is underrated and Cain hasn't pitched that well this year. Don't let the percentages fool you. Confidence:3

1045 Warriors Single digits- I think this is going to be close but I think Steph will have a good game and keep this to single digits. Confidence:3


Sunday, April 21, 2013

SFTC Picks for Monday 4/22






1200  Slavla Prague- Both these teams are pretty close in the standings. They have played pretty good recently and play well at home. They have lost 6 games in a row but from what I understand everyone of those teams were better than Slavla Prague. I'm thinking Slavla can squeak out a win but a draw wouldn't surprise me. Slovacko has had a lot of success against Slavla the last couple of years. I would stay away from this on a decent streak. Confidence:1


300 Manchester United by 2- Another soccer pick I'm not confident in. I would like to see the lineup but if I remember correctly ManU clinched the title so they don't really have anything to play for. Aston Villa isn't good but I could see a 2-1 game. If ManU plays a decent lineup tomorrow then I expect them to come out and try to win the first half and then rest some players in the 2nd half. Confidence:1

301 Yes they have lead- Depends on lineup. Confidence:3

402 0 or 1 goals- Depends on first half. Confidence:2

630 Oakland Athletics- I think this game is a toss up. But I heard Victorino might not play and I would think Boston would have to be fatigued after playing a double header. Confidence:3

703 Tampa Bay Rays- Thinking there bats have been hitting pretty well recently and continue tonight. Yankees have too many injuries. Confidence:3


703 CC Sabathia strikeouts- Confidence:1

705 Baltimore Orioles- Confidence:2

705 Pittsburgh Pirates- My writeup was going to say who is Pettibone then I remembered the Pirates struggle against pitchers in their first career starts. Confidence:2

705 Winnipeg Jets- Confidence:3

705 Washington Nationals- Confidence:2

735 Ottawa Senators- Even as a Pens fan I think they are due to play a bad game soon. But I think Ottawa needs this game a lot more since the Pens have clinched the number 1 seed. Confidence:3

735 Detroit Red Wings- Confidence:5

810  Nets winning margin- Confidence:2

810 Chicago White Sox- Confidence:1

935 Edmonton Oilers- Confidence:1

1005 Vancouver Canucks- Confidence:2

1005 Texas Rangers- Blanton is awful so that means he'll throw a no hitter tonight. Confidence:3

1010 Milwaukee Brewers- Confidence:2

1015 Arizona Diamondbacks- Confidence:2

1045 Clippers winning margin- Confidence:2

Saturday, April 20, 2013

SFTC Picks for Sunday 4/21




800 Nadal wins 2-0 - I know most people would look at this and think other wise. But Nadal has had Djokovic's number recently and I think he wins 2-0 or maybe 2-1 here. Confidence:3

830 Manchester City- Confidence:2

1100 Liverpool- Confidence:2

105 Hawks 3pters- I have went back and forth on this pick. I'm sticking with the safe pick even though I think Indiana is really tough at home. I think Atlanta will hit around 7 or 8 3s and that should be enough. Confidence:2

107 Toronto Blue Jays- I just don't see them getting swept here. Yankees have hit the ball pretty well this year. But I think Josh Johnson should bounce back and have a solid outing. Confidence:3

110 Washington Nationals- At first this I thought this might be a trap. But Gee hasn't pitched well and Zimmerman is solid. Ryan Zimmerman is on the DL but I don't think that will matter. Confidence:4

110 Ford- Confidence:1

135 Baltimore Orioles- They are red hot. Confidence:3

135 Boston Red Sox- Speaking of red hot you can them to that list. I cant pick against them given the recent events in Boston but it wouldn't surprise me at all if KC wins this game. Confidence:2

140 Oakland Athletics- I really like the Rays but don't have faith in Hernandez. I think Oakland is too to get swept.

155 Hoffman or Simpson- I'm wondering if this pick is a trap. But I think these are the best 2 golfers within distance. I feel very confident in one of them winning. I want to see how people before them shoot before I make this official but. Confidence:5

210 Cleveland Indians- Confidence:2

210 Chicago Cubs- Confidence:2

245 Juventus- Confidence:1

335 Detroit Tigers- Confidence:1

335 Lakers single digits-  Should be an interesting game and series. I'm just going with the safe pick right because I think LA's bigs are more physical down low and could half success. Confidence:2

505 Philadelphia Union- Confidence:1

700 Kansas City Royals- Confidence:2

705 Heat winning margin- This series should be 4 quick games. Confidence:3

805 St. Louis Cardinals- Confidence:3

806 2 or 3- Confidence:3

830 Anaheim Ducks- Confidence:3

855 Any other result- Confidence:2

940 Thunder DD- I think they run away with this game tonight. I think Rockets will rely on their 3 pt shooting but I just see OKC being too talented. Confidence:3

940 James Harden-I see this pick going either way but I think OKC will really try to slow and limit Harden. I think Westbrook will get around 13 so its just a matter of Harden not outscoring that number. Confidence:2

1105 104 or fewer- Confidence:2

Friday, April 19, 2013

SFTC Picks for Saturday 4/20

Sorry that I haven't had time to post atleast some info on these picks since I've been busy and feeling a little under the weather. I'll post some info on the picks I think will be the most popular


1000 Arsenal- Confidence:2

1230 Boston Bruins- Confidence:3

105 Baltimore Orioles- Confidence:2

107 Toronto Blue Jays- Confidence:3

130 Charley Hoffman- Confidence:3

300 Winnipeg Jets- Confidence:2

300 Boston Celtics 3pters- I have always liked the Celtics in the playoffs in the past couple season. But I think without Rondo I could see them struggling. They don't make a lot of 3pters but I think the Knicks are a little vulnerable because I think they rely on the 3pter a little too much. Could see this pick go either way.  Confidence:2

305 Detroit Tigers- Confidence:2

535 Nuggets DD-  I think this should be the quickest series in the NBA playoffs. Denver is too tough at home and I think matchup really well against Golden State. I think the key to beating Golden State is slowing down Curry which I think they have the right people to do that. Confidence:3

535 Steph Curry- When I first saw this pick I felt pretty good but now I am thinking this could go either way. I think Igupdala's  stats are a little low and I think they should climb up because they will be without Gallinari. Confidence:2

700 No - I think it depends on the first half but I think this is just a safer play. My guess if a player does it then its Curry. Confidence:2

700 Washington Capitals- Confidence:4

700 Ottawa Senators- Confidence:3

700 Philadelphia Flyers- Confidence:2

705 Pittsburgh Pirates- I'm surprising myself by picking them but they have been starting to hit the ball recently. Alvarez is not in the lineup which is kind of surprising. But I think McDonald will bounce back and have a strong outing at home tonight. Some pirates hit Maholm well and I don't see him continuing to pitch as well as he has recently. Confidence:3

705 Philadelphia Phillies- Confidence:2

710 Tampa Bay Rays- Confidence:2

710 Chicago Cubs- Confidence:2

710 Cleveland Indians- Confidence:2

800 Brooklyn Nets- Confidence:2

800 19 or fewer- I think these guys try to get other guys involve early and Bulls are solid  defensively. Confidence:3

810 Arizona Diamondbacks- Confidence:2

925 Yes team scores 25- Depends on first half and I might change it but they are both good defensive teams. Confidence:2

930 Henderson by decision- As a big UFC fan I am really excited to see this fight. I really like Henderson and everything I am hearing about Melendez is in great shape. I think Henderson should win this fight so its just a matter of will it go to a decision. The only way I see this pick losing is if Henderson gets a submission in 3rd or 4th round. Confidence:4

1040 Clippers winning margin- I think they come out and win this game at home. Confidence:3

1045 LA Galaxy- Confidence:2

1115 Alvarez by decision- These are 2 evenly matched boxer. I think this match does go to a decision just a matter if the judges score it the right way.  Confidence:3

SFTC Picks for Sunday 4/14

Picks have been red hot but my streak ended by my dumb pick of Quinnipiac. So I'm hoping that I can rebound. I just wanted to thank everyone for the support the past couple of days it means a lot. If anyone has any question don't hesitate to contact me via twitter @danossftcpicks.

1235 St. Louis Blues- Confidence:2

100 Puebla - Confidence:1

105 Heat by DD- Confidence:3

105 Chicago White Sox- Confidence:2

110 Philadelphia Phillies- Confidence:2

135 Cincinnati Reds- I don't see there being anyway the Reds get swept. As a bucco fan I never heard of Irwin so... If Quinnipiac would have won I was going to pick this on my 8 game streak. Confidence:5

135 Boston Red Sox- Confidence:3

210 8 strokes- Confidence:3

220 San Francisco Giants- Confidence:3

240 Any Other Country- My prediction is Adam Scott wins it. I just don't see anyone from the US winning. I don't feel great about Snedeker. I don't think Woods gets there. So maybe Kuchar. But I think Scott is solid and if not him there's Day or Cabrera. Confidence:4

SFTC Picks for Saturday 4/13


Picks have been doing pretty well except for Mickelson so I'm hoping he can turn it around over the next couple of days. I

Monthly Path
1 Southhampton
2 Par
3 par
4 par
5 7 or fewer
6 6 strokes
7 10 or more
8 Quinnipiac
9 LA Kings



1000  Southhampton- They are a on 3 game win streak and are pretty tough at home. I think they should win today. Confidence:3


1221 Par- He parred then birdied today. I think par is the safest for him. But one bad shot and he could bogey. Confidence:2

105 Boston Red Sox- I love David Price and think he is one the best picthers in the game. But I cant pick him when theres  a very good chance he wont get any run support. Lester has been great this year and they have a better lineup. Confidence:3

105 San Francisco Giants- Confidence:2

130 Par 5- Confidence:2

140 Any other score- Now I have been following both of these golfers throughout the tournament. I think it really depends how they are playing up to this point. My initial prediction is they both birdie this hole. This has been one of the easiest birdie holes on the course. I might change it if one or both of them struggle. Or if the course is playing harder tomorrow. Confidence:3

145 4 or more- Confidence:4

300 Buffalo- Confidence:2

305 Any Other-John Hopkins- Confidence:3

310 Par- Confidence:3

405 Detroit Tigers- I like Verlander to end the A's streak. Confidence:3

405 Baltimore Orioles- I like the Orioles lineup better than the Yankees even though I think Cano has a good game.  Confidence:3

410 New York Mets- Cant pick against Harvey right now. Confidence:3

430 7 or fewer- I think this a pretty good pick and might be the best out of all of the golf props. We will get to see how well these holes are playing and able to see how Tiger is doing up to this point. Tiger will almost always get a birdie on 13 so it would just be a matter if he could par the 12. Confidence:3

515 6 stokes- Confidence:2

600 Cruz Azul- Confidence:2

615 10 or more- This is tough but my prediction would be they both par just because this par 5 is a little tougher. I think Couples will most likely par but Day could birdie. Confidence:2

700 NY Islanders- Confidence:2

700 Toronto- Confidence:3

705 Quinnipiac- Confidence:4

710 Toronto Blue Jays- Confidence:3

710 Philadelphia Phillies- Confidence:3

747 FC Dallas- Confidence:2

805 Memphis Grizzlies- Confidence:2

SFTC Picks for Friday 4/12

My picks did pretty well yesterday so I hope everyone had a good Stunt Day. Cant wait for the next one which should be about the NFL Draft. All of the golf picks I will probably finalize on twitter  @danossftcpicks. Let me know if anyone has any questions.


For all of the hole or acouple of hole props I really like to see the hole placement and how the hole is playing on that day. So some of them might change.


Monthly Path
1  Nick Watney
2   Adam Scott or tie
3   Par
4    6 strokes
5    birdie
6    no
7 New Jersey Devils
8  Tigers or Rockies




855 Nick Watney  - Both of these golfers really struggled today. I had picked both of them on my round by round picks. I think both of these golfers will look to rebound today. I think Watney needs it more so I think he will play better. Confidence:2

1200 CSKA Moscow- They are red hot and have won 5 in a row. Confidence:2

1222 Adam Scott or tie- Confidence:3

121 Par- Confidence:2

220 San Francisco Giants- Cant pick against Cain but just not a huge fan of the Giants lineup. Confidence:3

237 6 strokes- Confidence:2

527 any other- If this hole was easy as it was yesterday this is almost a no brainer. Even though it wouldn't totally surprise me if he got an eagle on here. I got this hole confused with 13. Confidence:2

624 No- I like all of 3 of these golfers but once again depends on the hole and how they are playing. This hole was the 3rd toughest hole yesterday based on score. It had the second fewest birdies of any hole. Confidence:3

700 St. Louis Blues- Confidence:2

705 New Jersey Devils- Confidence:3

705 Cleveland Indians- Confidence:2

705 Baltimore Orioles- Confidence:3

705 Cincinnati Reds- The Pirates usually play the Reds real tough. But the Reds usually do well against Burnett. Don't have confidence in Pirates lineup besides McCutchen. Confidence:3

705 Washington Nationals- Confidence:2

705 Toronto Raptors- Confidence:3

710 Philladelphia Phillies- Confidence:3

805 Houston Rockets- Confidence:2

810 Toronto Blue Jays- Confidence:4

815 St.Louis Cardinals- Confidence:4

835 Denver Nuggets- Confidence:2

905 Phoenix Coyotes- Confidence:4

905 Yes both win- I think the Jazz are almost a lock to win tonight so it comes down to the Lakers. I think they win. Confidence:3

1005 Detroit Tigers- Confidence:3

1010 Seattle Mariners- Confidence:2

1010 Colorado Rockies- Confidence:2

SFTC Picks for Wednesday 4/10


Monthly Path
1 CSKA Moscow
2 Barcelona 1-0 or 2-0
3 Giants
4 No
5 Celtics
6 Angels or Spurs



1200 CSKA Moscow by DD- Confidence:1

245 PSG w/d/Lby1- I think this is a safer play but Barcelona could come out to dominate in this game. This pick might depend on whether Messi plays or not since he is questionable. If he doesn't play I like this pick quite a bit if he does then I think this could go either way. Confidence:2

246 Barcelona 1-0 or 2-0- I like this pick regardless if Messi plays or not. If he does I like this quite  a bit. If he doesn't then I wont feel confident in it. Confidence:2

247 Juventus win or draw- They are down 0-2 in the aggregate. This pick just makes sense unless they give up. Confidence:3

345 San Francisco Giants- They are the better team with one of their better pitchers on the mound. I would be a little hesitant to pick them on decent streak however since I don't think the Giants lineup is that good. Both of these lefties pitched well in their first start so it will be interesting to see how they pitch today. I would check both lineups before picking this game. Confidence:4

348 65 of fewer- Depends on the score. Will update my pick on twitter if need be. Confidence:2

705 Atlanta Hawks- Philly will be playing on back to back nights. They do play better at home. But Atlanta is still playing for something to see where they will be seeded in the playoffs. 76ers on the other hand are eliminated. Confidence:4

705 Cleveland Cavaliers- Cleveland playing on back to back nights. Neither of these teams are that good and have nothing to play for. Pistons have beat the Cavs 3 times this year. Maybe flip a coin. Confidence:2

735 Boston Bruins- Don't feel great about this pick compared to others. I think they are the better team but play so many tight games. This could probably end in 2-1 game going to a shootout giving the way they play. Devils might play desperate since they need to win to stay alive for the playoffs. Boston does have some head scratchers on the road. Confidence:3

810 Kansas City Royals- I don't usually like to pick teams to get swept but I will. Confidence:3

810 Boston Celtics- Brooklyn playing on back to back nights. The way I feel about this is it depends on who the Celtics want to play in the playoffs. I don't think they want to play New York but that's what its looking like will happen. Brooklyn on the other hand is pretty much locked into the 4 seed in the east. So if the Celtics feel content with being the 7th seed they might not care about this game. I think they will still come out and play but it could depend on who is playing tonight. Confidence:4

810 No neither team up by 5- I think both these teams are solid enough defensively. Confidence:2

930 Boston Celtics 3rd quarter- I think they usually make pretty good adjustments. Confidence:2

935 Edmonton Oilers- Coyotes have not played well since Iginla is gone. Confidence:4

1005 Los Angeles Angels- The A's win streak tonight will end. I don't think Blanton is that good but I think he should atleast pitch well enough against the A's. The Angels hitters love Milone and I think they light him up tonight. If Blanton gives up less than 5 runs then I will feel very confident about this pick. Confidence:5

1006 2 or fewer- Confidence:1

1010 Los Angeles Dodgers- I think they are the better pick here. I feel that Billingsley should come out and atleast pitch decent against an average Padres lineup. Confidence:4

1040 San Antonio Spurs- The home team has won all 3 games in this series. I think that changes tonight. I think Denver realizes they will be the 4th seed in the Western Conference. They are currently 3 1/2 back of the Thunder for the division with only 4 games left. Denver is unbelievable at home. On the other hand the Spurs want home court advantage and have only a 1/2 game on the Thunder. I think they come out and want to win this game. I just had another thought that I heard on SportCenter acouple of days ago. That nobody would want to face the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs so maybe the Spurs wont care if they are the number 1 seed.  Confidence:4

SFTC Picks for Tuesday 4/9


Monthly Path
1 Sonderjyske
2 Madrid lead
3 yes goal
4 Islanders(will most likely be done earler) or Dodgers
5 37 or fewer if you can get it if not then Mariners




1230 Sonderjyske- Neither of these teams are that great. Esbjerg has been playing pretty well of late. But I think Sonderjyske is due for a good game after losing 4 of their last 5. I'm thinking this has draw written all over it. Confidence:1

100 Netherlands- I like this pick just because its a friendly. Confidence:1

105 Toronto Blue Jays- I think Morrow is pretty underrated and Joey Bats is the lineup today. Confidence:2

245 Real Madrid - They dominated the first leg and I think if they come out and just play there stars for a half they should win this game 2-1. Confidence:2

245 Borussia Dortmund by 2- I usually don't like to pick these just based off of odds. But Dortmund is really tough at home. I think they come out and make a statement. Confidence:2

246 Real Madrid lead at half- Confidence:2

347 Yes- I would expect they don't score in the first half and if they don't I would like this pick quite a bit. Confidence:3

640 Los Angeles Dodgers- Confidence:3

705 San Jose Sharks- Confidence:2

705 New York Islanders- Confidence:2

735 Tampa Bay Lightning- Confidence:2

805 St. Louise Blues- Confidence:2

805 Chicago Blackhawks- Confidence:3

805 Texas Rangers- Not really sure who Tepesch is. Confidence:3

806 Santos Laguna win by 2 or more- Confidence:2

815 St. Louis Cardinals- I think this Cards lineup will do really well against Arroyo and will want to get a win at home today. Confidence:5

835 Los Angeles Kings- Confidence:3

836 Any Other Result- Louisville- Confidence:3

836 Connecticut halftime lead- Confidence:1

905 Oklahoma City Thunder- I'm hesitant on this pick just because the Jazz need this game. Confidence:3

940 Arizona Diamondbacks- Being a huge Pirate fan I just cant pick them until people in that lineup begin to the hit the ball. McDonald is an underrated pitcher but I think McCarthy bounces back tonight. I think ultimately Diamondbacks have a much better lineup and should win this game. Confidence:4

940 38 or more- I'll update this pick at halftime. Confidence:3

1010 Seattle Mariners- I don't like either of these pitchers. So I'll pick the home team just because I think they are better. Confidence:2

SFTC Picks for Monday 4/8

Not looking like a whole lot of action for Monday because of the National Championship. My National Championship pick will be semi biased but I feel that I will be right.

I will also be doing a writeup about the golfers I like to win the Masters this year.

If anyone has any questions then send me a tweet @danossftcpicks


Monthly Path
1 Krasnodar
2 17 or no goal
3  Man City
4  No HR
5  Russ Smith
6 70 or more




1100 Krasnodar- I think they are just a better team. I don't think there is really anything else to say since its the Russian Premier League. Confidence:1

205 Boston Red Sox- Initially I was going to pick Baltimore and then with my research I switched. This pick will be pending the lineup but both of these teams have been hitting the ball really well this. Chen is a lefty who I think will struggle with Boston almost all right handed lineup. Bucholz has pretty good history against the Baltimore hitters and I think he continues that today. Confidence:4


300 Manchester United- They are too tough at home. This will be pending the lineups tomorrow. Man City has a pretty big game coming up against Chelsea so they're stars might not play the whole game. Confidence:2

300 17 jersey number or no goal - Here is the way I'm interpreting this pick is basically who do you think scores first for Man U. RVP is the hands on favorite to score first and his number is 20. The other people that are on the over are Welbeck,  Tevez, Kagawa and Powell. The people for the under are Rooney, Hernandez, Aguero, and Dzeko. Those are the top 9 people to most likely score first. I think there is a very good chance that a goal is scored in the first half. I feel that the best option to do that is RVP and that he will. Confidence:3

402 Man City- But depends on the score at half time. Most likely my pick will be who ever is losing at that point. Confidence:1

410 Minnesota Twins- Another hard game to pick but I'm going to give an edge to Minnesota. I simply like their lineup better and I think Kansas City bullpen is tired from having to pitch a lot of innings over the past couple of days. Confidence:3

704 New York Mets-  I think they are just a better team at the moment. I watched Harvey pitch in the college world series for UNC acouple of years so I knew he was talented. I think tonight will be a good test to see how good he really is. On the other hand Halladay has really struggled in Spring Training and in his first outing this year. I give a slight edge offensively to the Phillies because I like their lineup better but have no confidence in Halladay. Confidence:3

705 No HR in fist 3 innings- I think is just the better pick I think the only 2 people who I would think would hit a HR would be Davis or Howard. Confidence:2

705 Toronto Maple Leafs- Confidence:3

923Louisville- This should be a really good game tonight. My predicition for the final four at the beginning of the season was Louisville, Duke, Florida, and Indiana. I did not pick a national champion out of that group. But when the bracket got released I had to pick Louisville. They have been playing the best basketball out of anyone in the country for atleast the past month. There is no way that I can pick against them now. I think the 2 major keys to this game will come down to rebounding and defending the 3. I see Louisville having an edge in both of those. I think Pitino's plan will be centered around slowing down Burke which I think Smith and Siva are more than capable of. On the other hand I'm not sure of how good Michigan is defensively. I know numbers wise they look like a pretty good but I'm not sure that they have seem an offensive attack like Louisville will send at them. I think both of these teams could have success on the offensive glass based on the number of 3s shot. But I think Louisville's bigs are more athletic and will get to more loose balls. The only way I see Michigan winning this game is if they shoot around 50% from 3. I don't see that happening tonight and feel pretty confident that the Cardinals win the National Championship for Kevin Ware. Confidence:6

923 Russ Smith or tie- I'm wondering if SM knows something that we don't. Because if you base this pick on numbers then you would see Burke has struggle in the first half of the tourney and really the only game he played well was the 2nd half of Kansas. On the other hand you have the leading scorer of the tournament with a tie option. I will say this it looked like when Louisville was down big against Wichita that Pitino told Smith to stop shooting. So I'm wondering if that's what is going to happen. But I think Smith/Siva with the rest of the Louisville defense will make sure to try to not let Burke get going offensively. Confidence:3

1035 70 or more- I think this is pretty low but it depends on what happens in the first half. Right now the over under for the second half is 74.5. I will be updating my pick on twitter at half time I will try to do it on here as well. Confidence:5

SFTC Picks for 4/7

Monthly Path
1. Tottenham
2. 20 or more
3. Oklahoma/ NY Red Bulls
4. Cal lead at halftime
5. 4 strikeouts or more
6. diggings+ achonwa
7.  notre dame 10








904 Tottenham- They have struggled late but play good at home. I think they bounce back and get a win at home. Im switching my pick since I found out Bale is out. Ive been going back and forth on this pick and Im going to stick with my gut oh well. Confidence:2

1230 Detroit Red Wings- These teams are evenly matched. This will be there five matchup this year.  They split those 2-2 and the home team are 2-2. I think Detroit squeaks out  a victory today. Confidence:2

1235 Horschel or Furyk- Confidence:4

105 Thunder winning margin- I know the Knicks shoot a lot of 3s. I think they just rely on it too much. Plus I think a huge reason to their recent success  has been Melo's hot streak. Durant will be on him so he could struggle a little bit. Confidence:3

107 Toronto- I think they are just a better team. Lester pitched pretty well against a below average Yankee lineup. Dickey did not pitch well against Cleveland. I think Dickey responds and haves a solid game at home. My pick might change depending on the lineups tomorrow. Confidence:4

110 Car1-40. No idea. Confidence:1

110 20 or more- Confidence:3

135 Phillies- I think there is a pretty good chance they win tomorrow. Hamels didn't pitch great against Atlanta but I could see him responding. I don't think the Royals are good. Confidence:4

210 Arizona Diamondbacks- Confidence:3

300 Oklahoma win by 4- Confidence:2


335 Clippers- Confidence:3

 405 San Francisco Giants- Confidence:4

505 New York Red Bulls- Confidence:1


600 Minnesota Wild- I think the Wild are a better team and have a really good shot to make a run in the playoffs. I am unaware that the Blue Jackets play well at home and recently acquired Gaborik. But I think its hard to generate chemistry between new players. Confidence:3

635 Louisville women- Confidence:3

635Cal lead at halftime- Confidence:1


730 Buffalo Sabres- Confidence:2


805 Los Angeles Angels- Confidence:2

SFTC Picks for Saturday 4/6

I apologize that I have only had time to just post my picks and not do write-ups. I will try to atleast acouple things about most of the picks tomorrow. If anyone has any questions then send me a tweet @danossftcpicks



Monthly Path:
1.Reading
2 6 or fewer
3 Willem
4 Princeton
5 Any other player
6 Michigan 2nd half





745 Reading win or draw- Reading has been playing pretty bad of late. They are currently in last in the standings. With that being said Southhampton does not play well on the road. I think this game has draw written all over it. Confidence:3

1220 70 or more- Confidence:3

107 Toronto Blue Jays- I think they haven't played well of late and are due for a good game. John Lackey is not a good pitcher. Confidence:4


110 Washington Nationals- What an absolute beat down by the Reds last night. I don't see that happening again. I think their bats will cool off. But the Nationals are one of the best teams in MLB. I see them rebounding. Confidence:3


110 White Sox- Confidence:1


305 Chicago Blackhawks- Think they are just a better team right now. Predators usually play well at home is the only thing from making me have this pick as more confident. Confidence:3

305 Winnipeg- Philly has been playing well of late. But they are awful on the road. Winnipeg has already beat them twice this year. Confidence:2

405 Angels- Confidence:2

405 Cardinals- Confidence:2

500 Syracuse Lax- Confidence:1

610 Louisville DD- I went back and forth on this pick for a while. Louisville in my opinion has been the best team for almost the past month. I see they key to this game being rebounding. I think Wichita will have an edge on the glass. But like we saw in the Duke game. They kept it close but then Louisville went on a huge run and there was no looking back. I see the same thing happening here. I think it will be close for most of the game but I think Louisville has too much talent for Wichita State. I think emotion will play  a huge role as well. You have to root for them because of the injury to Kevin Ware. I think they will play with a lot of passion. Overall I just think the press will just be too much for Wichita State guards and they will lose by 14. Prediction 74-60. Confidence:4

705 Pacers- Confidence:4

705 Bruins- Confidence:2

705 Islanders- Confidence:2

705 Carolina Hurricanes- Confidence:1

705 Maple Leafs- Confidence:2

705 Phillies- Confidence:2

710 Brewers- Confidence:1

710 Oakland Athletics- Confidence:2

735 3 or more- Confidence:1

735 Washington Capitals- Confidence:3

735 76ers free throws- Confidence:3

850 Syracuse Orange- I have been really impressed with both of these teams this tournament. This is a really tough game to pick. Initially I had Michigan but I switched today. Here is the way I look at this game,  there are 2 main keys for tonight. They are tempo and rebounding. I see Syracuse winning both of those. I think Syracuse will play really well defensively and will not let Michigan run. The key for Michigan on the other hand is it will come down to how they shoot the 3 ball. They have been lights out this tournament. I don't see that continuing. I think Boeheim will have the Cuse ready to play tonight. My prediction is Cuse 66-62. Confidence:4

850 Any Other Player- I don't think McGary will have a good game tonight with the zone. So the pick is will anyone outscore Trey Burke. I like this pick based on the odds that someone besides Burke gets hot. Confidence:4

1005 Syracuse- Depends on the first half though. Confidence:4

Monthly Path
1. Kuchar
2.No Run
3. Rubin Kazan
4. Woolridge, Felix, Anderson
5. Devyn Marble
6. Iowa to 10

710 Any Other- I really don't have any idea about this dunk contest. I really don't see a clear favorite out of the field. I really don't Woolridge will win so that hes just an extra guy to throw in there. My prediction would be Anderson or Mcgee. But I have no idea. Confidence:1

905 Baylor- I have been really impressed with both of these teams in the NIT. I initially thought Baylor is a better team because of their athletiscm. But Iowa really impressed me the other day. I'm still thinking Baylor wins because that's my gut but I don't feel great about. Confidence:2

SFTC Picks for Wednesday 4/3

Picks have been doing pretty good so far so lets hope I can continue to do well. 

I will add all of my picks later. Let me know what you guys think.

Pick of the day as of right now is the Penguins. Good luck to everyone and happy streaking.




1030 Jablonec- Confidence:2

1230 2 goals or fewer- Confidence:2

210 White Sox-  I think they're just a better team and at home.  Confidence:2

245 Any Other Result- I feel Madrid will win but not sure if they'll win by 3. I just feel this is a much safer pick. Confidence:2

245 Any other player- I'm just basing this pick on odds. I think there will definitely be a goal in the first half. I'm just hoping someone else gets it. Confidence:2

246 Borussia Dortmund- Confidence:2

347 0 or 1 goal- Depends what the score in the first half is. Confidence:2

410 Detroit Tigers- I'm wondering if Streakmaster knows something about this game. Tigers have one of the best lineups in baseball and Sanchez is solid. Do they think Mauer has a monster game since hes 4-5 vs Sanchez. Do they think the Tigers blow a lead late cause of there bullpen. If you answer no to those 2 question well then take the Tigers. Confidence:4


700 Raptors- Confidence:2

705 Hawks- Confidence:1

705 Josh Smith- Confidence:1

706 Pirates- Confidence:2

707 Yankees- Confidence:2

710 Rays- Confidence:1

710 Reds- Confidence:1

710 Mets- Confidence:2

710 Braves- Confidence:1

730 Montreal Canadeins- They are a much better team. I cant find anything to change this pick because the Canadeins are a solid road team. The only concern I have is if Philly decides to come out and play well. Confidence:4

730 Pittsburgh Penguins- Now this pick is biased since I'm a huge Pens fan but they played awful tonight. I really don't like picking teams that play on back to back days and that are on the road but I'm going to. There is no way that I couldn't pick them. I do have a concern that Crosby isn't in the lineup. This team is deep enough without him to win. They have beat the Rangers 3 times this year all by atleast 3 goals. Fleury will most likely be in net which is huge for the Pens. Since I have been  following the Pens over the past couple of years we usually play pretty well against them even on the road. Malkin averages almost atleast a goal every time he plays against Lundqvist who I would expect to be in net. The  Rangers are only 4-5-1 in there last 10 games so they haven't played that well of late. Now this is biased but Ive been a huge hockey fan from watching the Pens. It does kind of scare me that they will have to travel after losing to Buffalo at home. But this team has too much talent,  experience and leadership. I think they realize that this is an important division game. A huge sign of that was resting Fleury vs Buffalo. If Crosby was playing this pick would be a 7 but he isn't. Confidence:5

810 Brewers- Confidence:1

830 Knicks- Confidence:2

905 Jazz- Confidence:1

940 Diamondbacks- Confidence:2

1005 Dodgers- Confidence:1

1005 Oakland- Confidence:3

1005 Calgary Flames- I think being at home gives you a pretty big edge in any sport. Calgary usually plays well at home. These teams played 2 days ago. Edmonton won that game because Kiprusoff had a bad night. I like MacDonald and think he's played pretty well this year. The only concern I have is Calgary traded away their captain Iginla. Since then they have really struggled. I don't like Edmonton on the road. Confidence:2

1005 Grizzlies- Confidence:2

1007 Monterrey- Confidence:2

1035 San Jose Sharks- These are 2 of the hotter teams in the Western Conference. These are 2 pretty evenly matched teams. The Wild are only 8-8-1 on the road and the Sharks are 12-1-4 at home. Its really tough to win in San Jose and think they pull out a win tonight. Confidence:3

SFTC Picks for April 2

So far my picks from today are looking great. Over the next couple days I'll update all my stats. For the baseball stats I wont include any of the props so it will help show if im doing a good job on picking  the games straight up.

The other thing is I turn 21 at midnight tonight so the next couple of days I will be at a bar instead of being in front of my computer. I will make sure that all the picks will be posted. I probably wont have enough time to give full writeups on every pick but I will try my best to do writeups when I sober up. But if anyone has any question then can send me a tweet @danossftcpicks.


My pick of the day is the Brewers.


900 Ak Bars Kazan- I have been trying to follow this hockey league once they put these games on SFTC. I just think Bars is a solid team and will finish the series. But really not sure.  Confidence:1

245 Barcelona- This pick kind of scares me because they could play for a draw.  Confidence:2

245 No Goal- Confidence:1

245 Bayern Munich- Confidence:3

310 Yes Price gets win- I think Tampa Bay wins this game but I dont feel great about. My fear is they wont pitch Price for more than 100 pitches. I think the Orioles lineup is pretty solid and think they could score acouple of runs on Price. If I was playing for the streak I wouldnt pick it but I like this more than any of the soccer picks. Confidence:3

347 PSG- Depends on the score at the end of the first half. If Barcelona is not winning or tied I think they will score first and feel okay about it. If they are winning at the half I might take PSG or no goal. Confidence:2 or 3

703 Baylor Bears- I think the key to this game is if Baylor really wants it. I think they do and think there athleticism should be too much for BYU. Confidence:4

703 Jackson- Haws will be playing limited minutes tonight. Confidence:2

704 Notre Dame DD- Confidence:3

705 Bulls- Confidence:3

705 Winnipeg- Confidence:1

705 Washington- Confidence:1

810 Brewers- I don't think the Rockies are as bad as other people think. I think Gonzalez and Tulo are pretty solid players. But Braun is one of the best in the game. Estrada is a pretty solid pitcher. I don't feel great about this pick but if I was playing for the streak and only had acouple in a row I would pick the Brewers tonight. Confidence:4

810 Knicks- Confidence:2

810 No- depends on first half. Confidence:2

905 Tennessee- Confidence:3

930 Maryland- I was really impressed when I saw them play against Arkansas. They are a bunch of young guys that play scrappy and hustle. I think they should win tonight. Confidence:3

940 Cardinals- Confidence:3

1000 Seattle Sounders- Confidence:1

1005 Los Angeles Kings- Confidence:2

1005 Athletics- Confidence:3

1010 Giants- Confidence:2

1040 Lakers- Both of these teams are fighting for a playoff birth. Hard to ever pick against Kobe. Confidence:2
