OffshoreInsiders Handicapping Blog

The industry has undergone many changes since I got started many years ago. A journeyman handicapping by the name of Brandon Link approaches a Hollywood producer and as Brandon Lang becomes an overnight success, the kind of marketing coup the likes of Jim Feist, Wayne Allen Root or Stu Feiner used to be able to pull off.

Covers com and Vegas Insider were probably the first two major sports betting sites on the internet. Vegasinsider shot themselves by getting into bed with the likes of Wayne Root. WWW covers com in now in bankruptcy and many other sports betting sites are struggling.

Top sportsbooks are suffering thanks to anti-gambling legislation. Sportsbook com was the biggest for a long time. BetUs Sportsbook is now up there with Bodog Sportsbook now known as NewBodog replacing defunct BetOnSports as industry leaders.

Others listed on www.linetrackers.com include BetCris and Olympic Sportsbook, AKA the Greek. WSEX is a big international book as well.

I particularly like Johnny-come-lately like this Jonathan Stone and his stone cold locks or Sports Memo comes out of nowhere.

Regardless, while the squares like the bells and whistles of Brandon Lang, the sharpies will always have OffshoreInsiders.com
