JIGGY D

Jiggy began his wagering career as a youngster sneaking into Las Vegas Casinos to play blackjack. He developed an appreciation for statistical analysis while memorizing black jack basic strategy with his gambling friends. Jiggy has spent time reading about, studying and playing Black Jack, Carribean Stud Poker, Texas Hold ‘em and Craps- but through it all, he has decided that sports wagering offers the best probability weighted Return On Investment.

His infatuation with gambling statistics let him to minor in math and physics at the University of Chicago. After school he took his skills to the financial world, working as a financial analyst and then in corporate finance. Although work provided his primary income, he did supplement his income with weekly wagers. He recognized correlations between the financial markets and sports lines. Many of the same methodologies existed. That discovery led him to pursue an MBA from the University of California at Berkeley. At UCB he concentrated in finance and statistics.

Since graduation he has concentrated more fully on the NFL. Jiggy shall bring entertaining and informative articles to Wagercom and we look forward profiting from his significant experience.


AC TITTICOCK

AC Titticock comes to Wagercom with an extensive background in the NBA and NBA wagering. He learned about the NBA at an early age through watching the great Celtic teams of the 1980’s (Never bet against Bird). After spending his formative years in the city of Boston, AC moved to Chicago where he earned a degree in Economics from Northwestern University graduating Magna Cum Laude. While in Chicago he was able to study the Bulls dynasty and apply his NBA wagering theories to his classes in Econometrics and Game Theory.

After spending several years in consulting and corporate strategy working for the man, AC went back to school and earned his MBA from the Wharton School of Business in lovely Philadelphia. While in school, AC perfected his models and theories on the NBA point spreads and how they can be defeated. He has taken these tools and models and adapted them for the public markets where he now works on the growth funds for a multi-billion dollar investment management firm. His life long goal is parlay his gambling winnings into ownership of an NBA franchise, the Boston Red Sox, or Vivid Video.

When not watching hoops, AC has been known to dabble in poetry (his award winning “An ode to what matters” can be sent out on request), and co-wrote a movie with Wagercom’s own Jiggy Doughnuts. The movie is currently in negotiations but has garnered rave reviews. Throughout the year, AC will continue to answer reader questions in his award winning Ask AC column and during the NBA season, he will bring his insight on the NBA game to Wagercom as a service to his fans and as a way to bring peace to this wacky little thing we call the planet Earth.

DJ

DJ began wagering his allowance against father at a young and impressionable age. His first notable win came Jan. 1, 1985 in the Orange Bowl which matched Oklahoma and Washington. After a field goal the Sooner Schooner raced onto the field as called for by tradition. The only problem was the drivers apparently had not received the proper permission for the trip. The team was penalized 15 yards and the loss of the three points, they ended up losing to DJ Washington 28-17. Following this win DJ also discovered another joy that of viciously taunting his defeated opponent. After being sent to his room to think about what he had done, he realized he enjoyed both the betting and the taunting, and so an addiction was born. Realizing that only in college football could games be saved by an event as random as an asteroid hitting the earth, he formed the theory (which has gotten little national attention) that if you could predict something as impossibly random as college football you could probably discover the secret to cold fusion and solve the world's energy issues. Simply DJ gambles not for himself but for all the little people out there.

DJ has no background in math and/or economics. He believes that if you truly have enough money you therefore have enough to have someone else count it for you, if not then you don't have enough anyway so it doesn't matter. With BAs in Art History and English Literature DJ has found he has little to no use for numbers with the exception of pant sizes and paychecks, and his only interest in models to date is inappropriate to print. His picks are based on the "everybody gets screwed in college football, the question is when" method. Which is prescribed to by a vast majority of coaches and Nobel Prize winners.

DJ aspires to a number of things but most he can't think of off the top of his head. He resides in an undisclosed location safely cocooned in the federal witness protection program. However thanks to the miracle of the internet he is constantly on call for lovers and bettors of College Football.
