Just like that, the NFL season has returned. It’s here, I’m writing about coaching changes and off-field storylines and receiving emails asking about my picks.
I love it. I love all of it.
I’ll start with the simplest and most direct answer possible: yes, my picks will be back. I’ve been working on the season-long ones for quite awhile and, at last check, I’m about 75 percent done with the two articles. Week 1’s against-the-spread picks will release a day or two before Opening Day and, before we know it, we will right back into the swing of the foundation on which this website was built.
As always, I’ll be giving an automatic 20 percent discount to anyone who is returning and, if I miss it, I will refund that discount amount later. If you have any other questions or need to get in contact with me for any reason, don’t hesitate to send me any email at contact@sporfolio.com. I read every one, even if I don’t respond — and I respond to almost all of them.
The cool part about this year that hasn’t happened for the last few is that I can already see a routine. There have been some rule changes in recent years — additional Wild Card teams, a 17th regular season game, etc. — and potentially-shortened seasons — 2020, obviously — but I am sensing some normalcy toward the start of this year. That doesn’t mean the results will be standard — although we aim to keep this winning record going for as long as possible — but there isn’t the same feeling of unknown heading into this year.
For the league, anyway. For the teams? That’s a different story.
This past offseason has probably been the wildest in recent memory. It was more reminiscent to a fantasy dynasty league than anything else, where big names were on the move. That gives the upcoming season a nice amount of hype and added attention, as we know where all the focal points will be.
So that’s where I’ve been lately. Reading and writing about each team’s upcoming campaign, and I expect to have those two articles published before Labor Day.
I’ve also been working on something else.
In prior ‘Welcome Back’ articles, I mentioned future features and, while I am not ready to launch one just yet, I can share that I have programmed a fairly reliable model for MLB betting. I am still honing and putting some finishing touches on it, but I would like to have a Beta version of it released for next season. Stay tuned!
Otherwise, I want to send a heartfelt thank you for making Sporfolio what it is today. I never feel like writing here is a burden, and I am genuinely excited when I know that my next piece of work is ready to begin. This website — and you, the reader — have made everything about the football season enjoyable on a yearly basis, and I really can’t thank you enough for that. In fact, it means so much to me that I genuinely almost forgot to pull out the numbers from last year’s season and highlight just how incredible it was for us! Because it really was one of the best years we have ever had.
Finally, I asked for testimonials last year as a way to help grow the website, and I wanted to take a moment here and thank everyone for the kind words they said in their blurbs. I will try to get them on the website — I didn’t post all of them at the time — but just know how grateful I am.
Thanks again, and here’s to another great season!
