WEEKEND WARRIOR: EVERY FOOTBALL PLAY, SAT & SUN, JUST $49!
Two days. Two sports. One pass. Get every Saturday College Football and Sunday NFL play from your handicapper, and every 5% max football release is in there too, no upcharge. Retail runs $78. You're in for $49!
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.
NHL Hat-Trick All-Access Pass – Includes 5% Best Bets – ONLY $49!
Get every hockey play from your favorite handicapper for three full days. NHL, College Hockey, and any 5% Best Bets released on the ice, all for just $49.
That's only $16.33 per day for every premium hockey release your handicapper posts. You get instant access the moment plays drop, so you're on the best number before the lines move.
Bought individually, these plays would run well over $100. The Hat-Trick Pass gives you three days of nonstop action for less than half that.
Bonus: Any international or overseas hockey played during your window is included at no extra charge.
Don't miss a single puck drop. Lock in your Hat-Trick All-Access Pass today and start cashing tickets!
*Access includes all NHL, College Hockey, and any international hockey selections played during your 3-day window.

Consultant Bio
Ralph was raised in the home of handicappers in Cleveland, Ohio. Starting in the industry as a key member of Phil Steele's early team, which expanded Northcoast Sports during the mid-90s. Ralph's personal following grew fast, allowing him to strike out on his own as the founder of California Sports. Over the next dozen years as General Manager of Phil Steele Publications and lead handicapper of Northcoast Sports, Ralph managed the creation of some of the most popular sports betting content ever, including Phil Steele's College Football Preview Magazine and Northcoast's Power Sweep Newsletter. Content displaying expertise so elite that Ralph was invited into college football's most exclusive club: Heisman Trophy Voter
Ralph Michaels has a math mind, steadily searching for a value in the numbers in addition to matchup edges, situational advantages, and hidden gems of information. Ralph finds more big bets in the college versions of football and basketball, but his handicapping approach also uncovers selective winners in the professional leagues like MLB. Small conferences are particularly profitable due to mispriced injuries and his profiling of exploitable coaching tendencies.
