What good are predictions if you don’t keep records?

We asked ourselves that question last year and made a note to tally our 2016 picks for the
2017 magazine.

How did we do?

We only bet when our prediction differed from the posted line by at least half of a win.
+ We passed on 8 of the 32 teams.
+ Out of the remaining 24, we won 14 and lost 10 for a 4-unit profit.

Not bad! We expect to do better this season.
