Since 1957

The country's longest-running sports betting newsletter

Founded in 1957, GoldSheet is the country's longest-running sports betting newsletter. In May 2019, WagerTalk Media announced its intent to acquire GoldSheet in a deal to bring the iconic publication into the digital age.

Bettors and oddsmakers have used GoldSheet’s betting analysis for nearly seven decades. In 2022, the Chicago Sun Times did a piece on our history in the sports betting industry, and we were featured in Billy Walters’ critically-acclaimed book, Gambler: Secrets from a Life at Risk: “Mike was not a big sports gambler himself, but he knew a ripe market when he saw one. He dug for information at his local library and bookstores. He searched NCAA football guides, which listed scores and statistics, as well as local and national newspapers and handicapping resources like the GoldSheet.”

“…handicapping resources like the GoldSheet.”Billy Walters · Gambler

Inside the Football GoldSheet

Write-ups, stat comparisons and power-rating point spreads for every NFL and FBS matchup · Tech Angle historical trends · box-score breakdowns from the previous week's games · week-by-week logs with ATS, over/under and home-road splits · Stat Service head-to-head notes on turnover differential and yardage stats.

Inside the Basketball GoldSheet

Daily NBA and NCAAB game previews by 11am ET / 8am PT · the Basketball Record game log with scores and spread results · the Spreadsheet of situational home/road and favorite/underdog records · roughly six Key Releases across the NBA and college basketball each day.

Newsletter vs Picks

The newsletter gives you early information to handicap on your own. The picks give you the team's sharpest consensus plays once the picture is clear. A lot of clients run both.

Here's the edge most people miss: plays go out the moment they're released. Buy early in the week, and you get every play in real time, at the number your handicapper actually bet. Wait until the weekend, and you risk buying in after the line's already moved. The earlier you lock in, the more picks you catch at the right price.

This is the whole football weekend, wall to wall, for less than the price of a single max play elsewhere. Lock in your Weekend Warrior now and don't leave a snap or a number on the table.
