2023 Mutual Fund

Here's how the Mutual Fund works: Invest 1 or 2 shares in the Fund at $50.00 per share( maximum of 2 shares per person). I'm able to invest up to 22 shares, but, my total shares contribution will be determined by how many people sign up. Yes, I will put my money where my mouth is! I do the handicapping work. I make the picks. I determine what units will be invested in each pick. Unit plays will fall into 4 possibilities: 1-unit; 1/2-unit; 1/4-unit and 1/5-unit. (A 1-unit play represents my strongest play). The most you can lose is the value of your share(s). Either 50.00 or 100.00. You cannot lose more. How much can you win? I make no guarantees, but, I'll work my ass off to have a successful year. If I'm blessed to have a good year, I will deduct 20% of each share's profits as payment for my work. My goal is to have picks announced prior to the start of games, but, that is not a guarantee. Sometimes I'm handicapping games right up until the start times. The picks will be given out within minutes of the game(s) starting, with the lines and units on each play. My goal is to start the Mutual Fund on September 28th, but, i reserve the option of starting it one week later. The Mutual Fund ends with the Army vs.Navy game, the unofficial end of the regular season. Payment shares will come soon after. Mutual Fund status will be updated every Tuesday of the regular season, once the fund officially starts. It should be a lot of fun and I tried to make the risk very small. If you sign up, I hope you enjoy it. Email me at sam@college-edge.com if you have any questions. You can make payment right here, at this site via PayPal or call 267-918-1064 if you'd like to arrange another mode of payment or, if you have any questions.

Last Big Weekend of College FBS Picks: ONLY $8.00!

Why not sign up for this week's college football picks? I will be working every FBS game this week, with a couple of possible exceptions. All you have to do is glance over to the right on this page. You'll see a horse racing, weekend offer that costs only $8.00. Click that link. You'll get all my college football picks for that low cost.
As of Monday evening, I've already worked 4 games, and released one game to my clients, better known as my "cleeps" to the handicapping world. I am holding off making decisions on the other games, pending information I'll be gathering during the week.
Last week, I lost on my Over pick with TCU/Texas game, went 5-1 on my second favorite day of the college football year, Black Friday, then followed that on Saturday with a 4-3 record vs. the spread. My final record for my cleeps was 9-5.
This is going to be a fun, final, big weekend of college football. Why not spend an unbelievably inexpensive amount to sign up and enjoy it with my College Edge crew!

#AWedding and #FreeEnterprise: Perfect Together!(This is not an Endorsement)

I went to a wedding the other night and a great understanding of the free enterprise system broke out!
I have a friend, who we'll call Ed,  who owns a convenience store, and, I was lucky enough to be invited to his daughter's wedding. You know how weddings work: at some weddings you sit with the family; at others you're with the groom's, or, bride's friends. At this wedding I was at the work table. I sat with the store's workers, suppliers and service contractors. We had all become friends at the store, and, we were at the funkiest tables in the hall.
At some point in the night, after my fourth drink, or, after my dance-a-phobic wife boogied down a Soul Train-like line dance, I realized all these different partiers, from varying economic and racial backgrounds, were brought together because of a gutsy decision my buddy made years before: to open his own business!
Like most of us, I'm guessing Ed was trying to figure out how he was going to make a living. I'm sure he had no idea that in deciding to open his store, and running it about as good as anyone can, he'd, like George Bailey in "It's a Wonderful Life," touch so many other lives.
Like the life of Jim, seated to my left, who has been an employee at the store for years; like the life of Sal the Plumber, who not only can't dance, but, has fixed every plumbing job the store's needed for years, and has gotten untold other jobs from Ed's recommendations; like Ricky the Produce Man( yeah, we all have nicknames), who may not know how to tie a tie, but, who became the most trusted man when it came to fruit and veggies because Ed gave him an opportunity to sell his wares in a spot in the store; and like Ed's daughter, Melanie, the star of the night, who has come to run Ed's store (almost) as efficiently as her dad.
Then I thought of the 20 or so other employees who weren't there and weren't lucky enough to see me dance, or the Dorito's, Tastycake, Pepsi and garbage guys I've come to know who have income producing routes because of Ed and other store owners just like him, or, the countless others that have benefited from Ed's decision that I was too bombed to remember.
I sat there over my chocolate wedding cake and multiplied the lives Ed's touched by the millions of other lives that have been touched by others, like Ed, who had the guts to start a business.
I love free enterprise. I love living in a country that allows it to exist. Without endorsing anyone on the eve of another important election, I'll vote for the candidates who'll give guys like Ed, not the guaranteed chance to succeed, but, the best chance to succeed.
After the party high wears off,  I may still not be able to explain how this whole free enterprise thing works, but, for now, I want to thank Ed for inviting me to a wonderful wedding!

Our BREEDER'S CUP OFFER: WILDLY AFFORDABLE!

Right here, at collegeedge.blogspot.com, you can sign up for the Breeder's cup selections! Here are the details.
As most of you know, I started the College Edge(www.college-edge.com) as a college football-only handicapping business. It is, literally, the only sport I handicap. Over the years, I've discovered handicappers who were proficient at other sports, and have offered their services to our public.
Rich is my Baseball and Basketball expert; Greg is my NFL and Baseball guru; and for our fantastic purposes this weekend, Dan is my horse racing specialist.
Dan calls himself a speed handicapper, and he's been studying the horses for 40+years. He's done a nice job for the College Edge when we've asked for his services, and we offer them once again on what may be the biggest horse racing weekend of the year: The 2012 Breeder's Cup Races!
Again, right here at this site you can sign up for Saturday's Breeder's Cup Races. You'll see a charge of $8.00 for one weekend of picks from the Parx RaceTrack. Simply sign in at that spot, for the low cost of $8.00, and you'll get our selections for all of Saturday's Breeder's Cup Races.
Dan probably knows more about the horses than anyone reading about this offer, so let Dan put his expertise to work for you. It'll be fun to watch the races, and actually have a chance to win some decent cash, and, the good part is, you are only paying $8.00!
I need to know by midnight on Friday, Nov.2nd. At 12:01a.m., I'll e-mail Dan's selections for each race of Saturday's Breeder's Cup

Here's another idea for you: In 2011, I went 46-17 for my college football clients(an unbelievable 73%). This year, going into this week, my record is 52-38(577%).
Sign up at the part on this page where we offer college football and the NFL(only $50.00 for the regular season), and you'll now get: Sam's college football picks, Greg's NFL picks, and Saturday's Breeder's Cup selections. Does it get any better than that?

Again, sign up by midnight, Friday night, and at 12:01a.m., Saturday morning, I'll release all of Dan's Breeder's Cup selections.We hope you'll give us a chance.
