The Bullpen

Need some relief? It’s never too late to make a call to the pen.

Pick Of The Day – 2/17/2020

After a pretty terrible 2-5 week last week, it’s time to get back into the win column consistently. I had Team Giannis in last night’s NBA All Star Game and they ended up covering, and for my money they should’ve won outright. But either way that’s a w for ya boy. Now I’m back to…

Pick Of The Day – 2/14/2020

Happy Valentines Day I guess. The only date I want is with a winning college basketball bet. But I’m starting to wonder if I’ll ever win again. Fucking Southern Utah got smoked last night. Go figure. Idk why I’m even picking what teams I pick. I’m throwing darts blindly at a dartboard hoping to find…

Pick Of The Day – 2/13/2020

Im destitute right now. I don’t know what to do. Where to go. On Monday we lose a 5 point lead by NCA&T that turns into a 19 point loss. On Tuesday Michigan blows a 20 point second half lead to win by 1 and miss the -2 spread. And then last night, with time…

Pick Of The Day – 2/12/2020

Last night was another rough one. Michigan State had a damn 20 POINT SECOND HALF LEAD and let Illinois come all the way back to cover the 2 point spread. It almost pisses me off more that Michigan State ended up winning by 1, after blowing that lead you don’t deserve any type of happiness…

The Nightcap – Jersey Swap

You’ve seen it a billion times at the end of NFL, and NBA, and EPL games. Two guys who are either mutually admiring competitors, friends, relatives, or just have a connection somehow take off their jerseys after the game and trade with each other. It’s a sign of respect and camaraderie that we’ve seen over…

Pick Of The Day – 2/11/2020

Rough one last night. Who knew I wouldn’t be any good at betting on teams that I knew absolutely nothing about from schools that I never heard of? Shocker. I thought my boys down at NCA&T would win outright against a +1 spread, but they ended up just missing the mark and lost by 19. Honestly kind…

The Nightcap – The Longest Fall In History

So if you’ve been on the internet at all today, you’ve probably come across this video of a guy falling the entire way across a gym: What a video to breakdown. I don’t even really know where to start. First let’s look at our man here, a chubby ginger guy in a polo and khakis.…

Pick Of The Day – 2/10/2020

I had myself a hell of a week last week, and not in a good or bad way. Just so damn weird. We had a basketball game in a rain delay. We had a snow postponement. We had a buzzer beater 3 that cost some money, and watched an 85% FT shooter miss 2 of…

Pick Of The Day – 2/7/2020

Well last night was a trip. I should’ve thought about it when I bet a late night Pac-12 game on ESPN 2, but it didn’t register until I flipped over and heard Bill Walton’s voice. It turned out to be almost therapeutic to hear his nonsensical ramblings, because I was significantly more focused on that…

The Nightcap: Eric Weddle

There have been a lot of big names leaving the NFL lately. Of course this offseason we had Rob Gronkowski hang them up, as well as the shocking Andrew Luck retirement. Luke Keuchly also surprised the league by hitting the showers. Antonio Gates called it a career this year, as did Super Bowl hero and…

Pick Of The Day – 2/6/2020

Well last night absolutely sucked. I took Nova +2.5 @ Butler, and about 5 minutes after I placed the bet the line moved to +3. Not a great sign but I thought Nova would win outright. First off, we had a RAIN DELAY in the first half. I think I should be refunded my money…

The Nightcap

I’ve been trying to come up with a non-cheesy name for this segment, and I’m settling on the nightcap. Basically it’s a knockoff of Scott Van Pelt’s “Best Thing I Saw Today”, except instead of being on Sportscenter it’s a written blog, and instead of Scott Van Pelt I’m just some guy sitting on his…

A Little About Me

So I’ve told you about The Bullpen. I also think I should tell you about who I am so you know where I’m coming from. My name is Connor Thomas, and I’m just a regular guy who likes sports, and drinking, and gambling, and normal guy stuff. I’m from South Jersey, but I currently live…

Pick Of The Day – 2/5/2020

If you follow me on twitter, you’ll know that since the start of this year I’ve been putting out a daily gambling pick. The crazy thing about it is, since I’ve started tweeting my picks I’ve been on the biggest heater of my sports gambling career. Normally this is the part where I would say…

Welcome To The Bullpen

I’d like to be the first to welcome everyone to The Bullpen – a sports filled, booze induced, gambling den of exactly what you come to the internet for: entertainment. If you’ve ever had the absolute pleasure of being a Division III baseball relief pitcher like me, you’re familiar with the bullpen and everything that…
