It's Our Year


About

I am a degenerate sports junkie who loves the Cowboys and Pacers. I am an NBA fanatic (just look at the 'ole Watch Log) and love football as well. I built this site to give myself an arena where I can talk sports, hone my writing skills, and have some fun making picks to see how well I can predict games.

Why "It's Our Year"

It's Our Year comes from the classic meme of Cowboys fans saying it every year over and over. I feel the same way about the Pacers too (though there is more reason for hope in that facet of my fandom.)

The columns

I write columns about the Pacers and Cowboys specifically coming from a degenerate fan perspective and not from any sort of analyst. I consider myself more like a Bill Simmons than a Mina Kimes. I never played football or basketball beyond elementary school- and I try not to consider myself an armchair GM.

The picks

I make weekly and daily picks solely for my own amusement. Lines are pulled mostly from DraftKings, and I for the most part do not bet any of these lines. I definitely had a minor gambling problem in the past, and still enjoy making picks even though I am not putting my money where my mouth is at the moment.

Every pick I make in a column is graded in the final Scorecard. I make daily NBA picks too, and those are graded on the Watch Log- the lines are pulled in the early morning so they may not reflect closing lines. I do not track units (you can do the math yourself on a standard -110 pick) because I am not betting on these, and you should not take my advice to do so either.

Keeping up

I try to write the columns in a timely manner, but I have a full-time job and am finishing my Masters degree as we speak. You can sign up via email to get the columns directly in your inbox whenever they go live.
