NFL Strategy Outperforms Wall Street Again in 2008

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 31, 2008

“The Underdog Theorem: How to Bet on the NFL and Win While Outperforming Wall Street” explains the NFL betting strategy that has topped the performance of Wall Street’s major indexes over 15 years, from 1993 to 2007. The 2008 NFL season, the Underdog Theorem’s 16th, ended on Sunday and the Underdog Theorem outperformed Wall Street once again.

Written for the sports gambler and non-sports gambler alike, the book presents a new idea, demonstrates its success, and aims to change the way fans view each NFL season.

“The Underdog Theorem is an idea that has been overlooked by every sports fan,” says Eddie Getz, the book’s author. “Yet readers will see that it seems slightly obvious in hindsight.”

Howard Schwartz, the marketing director for the Gambler’s Book Shop in Las Vegas, the world’s oldest and largest book shop dedicated to gambling, said, “One of the unique and refreshing new ‘how-to’ bet pro football books to hit the Gambler’s Book Shop shelves in many a year is Eddie Getz’s The Underdog Theorem.” According to Schwartz, “The book may be the sleeper of the year.”

“A goal of The Underdog Theorem is to introduce a new idea to anyone interested in the NFL. But beyond football, the book is for anyone who enjoys discovering new things hidden in plain sight — new facts buried in familiar results,” says Getz. “After an amazing 2007 season, 2008 did not disappoint. Wall Street’s very bad year gave the Underdog Theorem a head start, but it wasn’t needed. The Underdog Theorem outperformed again, in large part thanks to the New York Jets and the Detroit Lions, which probably sounds strange to NFL fans.” The New York Jets had another disappointing season, while the Detroit Lions became the first team in NFL history to finish with 0 wins and 16 losses.

“The Underdog Theorem” addresses America’s conflicted relationship with gambling and asks the reader to recognize how prevalent gambling really is in our society, especially on Wall Street. The book provides a brief history of the NFL, beginning in the 1920s and continuing through the incredible seasons of the 1972 Miami Dolphins and the 1985 Chicago Bears. It discusses the league’s struggle with free agency and its creation of the salary cap, and explains that these two developments made the Underdog Theorem possible. Each piece of the Underdog Theorem, and every step required to apply it, is explained to the reader. Finally, the book lists all picks the Underdog Theorem made — every pick from every NFL weekend over 15 seasons, as well as every pick’s result and payout. Season 16′s picks are available online. These data allow the reader to see the strategy’s full results and thoroughly evaluate the idea for himself. Such transparency is not typically provided in books of this kind, and, as the world has found out, isn’t always provided on Wall Street.

“The Underdog Theorem” is available at the Gambler’s Book Shop, the High Stakes Gambling Bookshop in the United Kingdom, and Amazon.com.

Getz says the strategy was born of a very basic observation about all NFL teams. “Ultimately, I hope this book starts a discussion about an idea that claims something pretty bold — that it’s possible to predict certain outcomes in every NFL season.”

Eddie Getz used to work on Wall Street, but spent the 2008 NFL season maintaining the Underdog Theorem blog at underdogtheorem.wordpress.com.

NFL Strategy Outperforms Wall Street Again in 2008

ZippyKid Changes the Managed WordPress Hosting Space - Again

San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) April 18, 2012

After analyzing more than 7,000 support requests, emails, and phone calls from the past year, it was clear that customers of WordPress hosts across the board needed a better way to manage their sites. The beta launch of MyZippyKid is up and ready to address those needs for agencies, developers, and small business owners.

MyZippyKids features span several previously unfulfilled needs, highlighted by the introduction of social sign-on. Social sign-on simplifies the traditional hosting sign up process, allowing users to start building WordPress sites with no more than their Facebook or Google account. With this, customers no longer need to pay for WordPress development environments. MyZippyKid allows customers to develop sites for free, with merely a Facebook or Google account, only seeking payment when theyre ready to take their site live.

Following in the steps of Github and other code repository sites, MyZippyKid allows multi-user collaboration as a way to accelerate website development and management. Collaboration through MyZippyKid provides the easiest way for programmers to work together on WordPress sites with the ease of an invite, side-stepping the hassle of hunting for FTP credentials and other technical jargon that programmers may request. Most importantly, for ZippyKid clients, this means never having to send sensitive information via email.

The introduction of ZippyClone provides a time saving alternative for clients who were forced to use the same base template to create multiple sites to suit specific verticals. ZippyClone allows customers to take any site on the ZippyKid system, tweak it, and launch as many copies as they want.

The WordPress community is driven by the ability to add complementary services and MyZippyKid takes that into consideration. With the click of a button, Add Ons in MyZippyKid make it simple to purchase, attach, and install complementary products such as SSL certificates, premium WordPress themes, domain names, and more.

The release of MyZippyKid comes on the heels of a new round of investment from prominent figures in the hosting community, who believe this will be the future of web hosting.

Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) August 31, 2012

It seems Spark Logix Studios can’t be tamed as the responsive web design and inbound marketing company continues to lengthen its reach and hire new team members. Two of the newest people to join the Spark Logix group are Jon Ramsey and Sean Roberts who will work as project manager and lead WordPress developer respectively.

Ramsey, who grew up in Minnesota, has an eclectic background with experiences that range from filmmaking to quantum physics and, most recently, search engine optimization and web design.

“I’m very excited to join the Spark Logix team,” said Ramsey. “I love learning new things and helping clients meet their needs, which I think will serve me well in providing the top-rate customer service Spark Logix is known for.”

Ramsey admits every day is different when you work as a project manager in the dynamic world of web design and inbound marketing; however, he says he is up to the challenge and proud to be part of a business so committed to staying on the cutting edge of its industry.

Roberts, who has a BA in arts, entertainment and media management, has several years experience working as a WordPress developer and has expanded his skills into responsive web design. He is using his expertise to help enlarge Spark Logix Studio’s Colorado branch and to provide the business’ clients with websites built to drive targeted traffic and deliver excellent user experiences.

“My goal is to help Spark Logix Studios grow to an even greater level,” Roberts remarked. “I’ve long ago committed myself to the best SEO and design practices, and I’m thrilled to be working for such a forward-thinking company that shares my vision.”

Currently, Spark Logix Studios has offices in Ham Lake, Fort Collins, and Minneapolis, and they claim to have no intentions of stopping soon. “Naturally, we couldn’t be happier about our growth and to have Jon and Sean onboard,” said company founder, Rob Benson. “But, what we’re most pleased to share with people is that many of the strategies we’re using to succeed are things we also provide our customers, such as SEO, social media, responsive web design, and more — so, our clients can enjoy results similar to ours.”

Although Spark Logix Studios specializes in Colorado and Minnesota web design and inbound marketing, they welcome clients from across the country. Visit their website or contact one of their offices for more information.
