After another victory in the pucks, NHL guru Dream has stretched his record to an unfathomable 10-1. As he reminded me over a lunch call this afternoon, "this stuff just comes naturally to me. Some people have a gift for picking stocks, getting tail, etc. I just pick winners and do it better than any person alive".
As for tonight, I am releasing the Iowa Hawkeyes +5 over Georgia Tech. While I do not love this play, of the 20 people I spoke with regarding the game, 18 like Tech and 16 of those people think they win big. Here is something to ponder: what are the odds of 18 people I know all winning money tonight?
A soon to be released biography on actor Warren Beatty claims that the aging movie star has bedded 12,775 different women. As a caveat the author notes that "none of these include: daytime quickies, groping sessions, or drive-bys". Thanks for clarify that, it really would have put a damper on his tally. While Propick has been unable to reach any members of the Chamberlain family, one can only guess that they would be unimpressed with Beatty's statistics. Using back of the envelope math, Wilt accomplished the 12,775 mark sometime in his twenties or early thirties. One can only imagine the stratospheric numbers Wilt would have amassed had he not suffered an untimely death. Much like DiMaggio's consecutive game hitting streak, Wilt's record appears to be safe.
