  2. In one run games on the road the Dodgers are 7-14 SD at home in one run games is 15-5
    LA on the road overall is 32-32 and 29-29 against teams with a winning record SD at home overall is 42-21 number two in the league

  3. Hey Jesse, love your videos. Great free play run you’re on. Quick question, several of the wager talk guys list themselves as the #1 football handicapper for last year.. at least 4 guys have that in their bio’s. Who was actually the top handicapper?

  4. J, You strike me as Having an offensive lineman Personality, love your videos lovely analysis… And very much love you ripping on Myers and keyboard tough guys. Tough to back LA today after watching their anemic game yesterday, But your analysis on first five is spot on.
