My thoughts on sports and entertainment.
Welcome to Tim’s Reviews and Winners by me, Tim Burch. My name is Tim and I'm a big fan of sports, books, movies, TV shows, and Music. Big Sox, Bulls, Bears and Everton fan.
Each newsletter will feature a couple reviews of what I have been reading, watching, and listening to, followed by a couple sports gambling picks I really like that are coming up in the next couple of days.
I want to start off by saying you won’t see many negative reviews from me. I tend to be easily entertained and am always amazed by the human capability to tell stories. If I do find something I don’t like, I figure it most likely has already been panned by much better and more important publications so I don’t need to “pile on”.
Every book, TV show, movie, and album will be assigned a score that is a positive integer from 1 through 10. The higher the number, the more I thought of the work. My rating system is more art than science as I try to combine both the technical quality of the work with how much I enjoyed it to arrive at a single number.
I began betting on sports in 2020 when it first became legal in the State of Illinois. In the year or so since I have done okay financially, mostly due to generous odds boosts from the apps offering sports gambling, but really enjoyed researching different players and games to bet on. If you are the type of person that could get out of control with gambling, I would recommend not taking it up. I use the apps from DraftKings, FanDuel, Bet Rivers, and William Hill to shop around for the best odds for a game. I will say in my post which of the apps I am using for a particular bet.
