now THAT one I have heard of thanks X

 

[FairWarning]

College - Blue Ribbon, Phil Steeles Annual (out now in stores) and ATS College


Pros - ATS (Seroiusly on both ATS publications), Phil Steeles Pro (Mail only, but free with a coupon inside the college mag).

Marc Lawrences Playbook Annual (combines pro and college) is great for the stat-geeks. Good stuff.

I buy 5 or 6 of each and usualy the best ive found are Street and Smith's. PFW makes a good one too.

 

[Dante]

also DOC sports has a small mag and stat book I like reading that ...

 

[Fishhead]

I always find GAMEPLAN to be very informative.

S&S gets a big thumbs up for being the first to hit the shelves. At least here it is ... we get so few of the NFL mags tho comapred to what you guys get. Thank god for the internet, eh?

 

[Dante]

great stuff guys and ladies...thank you for the information

Winkyduck usually brings some copies of the DOC SPORTS stats and trends book to the bash to give out..I hope he brings it this year

I use Lindy's Pro Football and was wondering if anyone that has used Lindy's along with Street & Smith's would compare the two? Thanks.

THE GOLD SHEET makes a nice preseason magazine.........plus it is geared more towards the sportsbettor.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

-FH-

ps- Also, on the same subject, the GOLD SHEET produces an outstanding weekly publication that has been a kingpin for this industry for 30+ years. Great in-depth articles on sportsbetting and great stats for the novice and professional sportsbettor! Been a faithful reader for years and in fact, would be lost without it!!

 

[Megacapper]

Blue Ribbon is the most thorough.

I think Steele's book has slipped this year. The writeups contains tons of filler and make it at times a difficult read.

Gold Sheet is pretty good and Fish I have always been partial to Gameplan. I have every football annual they have ever published. Joe Del Popolo does all the college writeups and has done a superb job with his analysis over the past 35 or so years.

If anybody wants a "free" (they charge $3.25 shipping cost) copy of DOC`S SPORTS JOURNAL here is the website.freefootballschedule.com .I ordered mine over the weekend.

Not a magazine but www.collegefootballnews.com has some solid information for NCAA and most of their team previews are already up.

I like Marc Laurence's Playbook for the pros and Phil Steele for the college. Tough to find in the newsstands, so I usually order online. Worth it, if you ask me.
