On Monday night, Joski got his fifth consecutive Golden Picks Award. We remarked on his achievement back when he won the fourth, so we won’t do too much whoopin’ it up today. (And yes, I realize this should have been written earlier in the week but … well, I didn’t get it done.)

However, we do have from the master himself, a deceptively simple strategy for winning:

1) teams are rarely more than 3-2 underdogs

2) all things being equal, the home team will tend to win

Why would Joski share his ancient wisdom with the rest of us? He is sick of wearing Ballhype tshirts every day. And he acknowledged that “it’ll make it a lot more challenging (and fun) for everyone if there aren’t big gaps in the odds which folks can exploit.” Note that this week he’s only in eighth place on the leaderboard, so make of that what you will.
