At 10 pm, our selection is on the Seattle Storm minus the points over the Toronto Tempo. Seattle comes into tonight's game with the worst record in the league, at 7-31. Yet they're favored by a big number vs. the Tempo. The knee-jerk reaction might be to grab the points with Toronto. But be careful, as sub-.300 teams have cashed 61.1% (at Game 7 forward) when favored by 6+ points. Moreover, Seattle plays with double-revenge from two road blowout losses (86-73; 93-72) at Toronto. And the Storm have cashed 55% when favored at home and playing with revenge, including 21-9 ATS if they lost the previous game by double-digits. Take Seattle. Good luck, as always, Al McMordie. |

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Portland Fire + the points over Dallas. The Fire enter off back-to-back narrow losses to Toronto (82-79) and Washington (105-100). Still, Portland has been highly-competitive of late, going 13-6 ATS its last 19. And the Fire have only lost two of their last 19 games by more than 8 points, which is key, considering tonight's point spread. Dallas, meanwhile, is 8-15-1 ATS its last 24. And the Wings are a woeful 59-91-3 ATS vs. foes off back-to-back losses, including 18-32-2 ATS as a home favorite. Admittedly, Dallas enters off back-to-back wins vs. Indiana (91-85) and Seattle (92-70). But those two wins have triggered a negative 93-146-4 ATS system of mine that goes against certain home favorites off back-to-back wins. We'll grab the points with Portland. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 8 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Valkyries + the points over Minnesota. These are the two best teams in the league, but Minnesota has had Golden State's number. The Lynx defeated the Valkyries in San Francisco last week. And that was the 3rd straight win this season by Minnesota over Golden State (and 9th straight in the series). But even though the Lynx are on a 6-game win streak, I love Golden State tonight. Indeed, WNBA teams off back to back wins have gone just 24-47 ATS when playing a .650 (or better) foe that lost the previous three meetings. Grab the points with Golden State. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 4 pm, on Sunday, our selection is on the Seattle Storm + the points over the Dallas Wings. The Storm come into this game off back-to-back 2-point losses at home to Portland and Chicago, while the Wings enter off a 91-85 upset win on Thursday vs. Indiana. We'll fade Dallas on Sunday, as the Wings are a woeful 28-54 ATS vs. revenge-minded foes off a loss, and also 58-90 ATS vs. foes off back to back losses. Meanwhile, Seattle is a super 41-14-3 ATS as a dog off a loss vs. a foe off a win. Finally, the Storm fall into a 409-309 ATS system of mine which plays on certain underdogs off a SU loss. Grab the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Argonauts minus the points over Hamilton. After starting the season with seven straight road games (due to BMO Field being used by FIFA for the World Cup), the Argonauts finally played at home two weeks ago vs. Calgary. The Argos won that game, 33-30, and will play their second home game on Saturday night (after losing on the road, 42-12, at Edmonton last week). Toronto will look to avenge a 24-23 upset loss at Hamilton in Week 7, and is a terrific 29-14-3 ATS off a straight-up loss, including 10-1-1 ATS at home when playing with revenge. Even better: favorites have cashed 67% off a blowout loss by 25+ points when matched-up against a foe off a win. Lay the points with Toronto. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 9:30 pm, on Friday, our selection is on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers + the points over Edmonton. The Blue Bombers moved above the .500 mark last week with a 33-21 win over Ottawa, and are 5-4 on the season. They're 1.5 games behind the 7-3 Elks, and will try to close the gap with a win in Edmonton tonight. The Elks won the first meeting, 23-18, in Winnipeg. But Winnipeg is a stellar 26-9-1 ATS when playing with revenge from a loss earlier in the season, including 12-0 ATS as an underdog! That bodes well for the Blue Bombers. As does the fact that revenge-minded teams are 212-159-13 ATS when priced from +3 to +14 vs. an unrested foe. Take Winnipeg + the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Ottawa Redblacks + the points over Montreal. This is the 3rd meeting of the season between these two East division rivals. Montreal took the first meeting, 37-35, in Week 4, at home. And the Alouettes also won in Ottawa, 34-13, in Week 9. We'll grab the points with the Redblacks in Round 3, as underdogs playing away from home have gone 43-21-2 ATS in a season's 3rd meeting after losing the first two. That bodes well for Ottawa. As does the fact that Montreal enters off 6 straight wins (and 5 ATS wins). But the Alouettes are 20-36-3 ATS off back-to-back SU/ATS wins, including 5-15-1 ATS at home vs. revenge-minded foes. It's true that Ottawa has yet to win a game this season, at 0-9. But winless, revenge-minded teams have gone 20-10-1 ATS, including a perfect 7-0 ATS as an underdog of +9 (or more) points. Take the Redblacks. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 10 pm, our selection is on the Golden State Valkyries + the points over Minnesota. Golden State sits with the 2nd best record in the league (25-9), three games behind the 1st place Lynx. This will be the 3rd meeting of the season, and the Lynx are 2-0 thus far. And Minnesota is 8-0 in the series vs. Golden State since the Valkyries launched their franchise last season. We'll take the revenge-minded Valkyries, as winning teams have cashed 61.4% at home when playing with double-revenge (and 68.1% as home underdogs). Grab the points with Golden State. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |

At 7:10 pm,
our selection is on the San Diego Padres over the New York Mets. As
their disastrous season continues, there's not much left for the Mets to
play for, except of course pride and the chance to see how good some of
the young talent -- and there's a lot of it on this team -- can be. Up-and-coming pitchers like Nolan McLean and Zac Thornton -- who may be
getting his turn tonight -- are eager to showcase themselves and prove
they can be staples of the Mets' rotation next season and beyond. The
Padres, on the other hand, decided to go for it at the trade deadline
instead of selling off their expensive veterans in order to re-stock
their farm system pool. As a result, that pool is pretty depleted right
now but San Diego has some additional veteran arms in the rotation, and
one of them is going tonight. LHP Robbie Ray will get his 24th start
of the season -- and third for Padres as they try to keep pace with the
Dodgers while ensuring at least a Wild Card. In 10 career starts vs.
the Mets, Ray is 5-2 with a 3.14 ERA and 53 strikeouts in 51 2/3
innings. Take San Diego. As always, good luck...Al McMordie |
| 8/17/2026 - WNBA | LOSER |
At 10 pm, our selection is on the Dallas Wings + the points over the Golden State Valkyries. These two teams met 10 days ago in the Lone Star State, and the Valkyries wiped out the Wings, 94-76. Overall, Dallas has dropped its last five games to the point spread. We'll take the Wings to snap that 5-game ATS losing streak, as road underdogs off a SU/ATS loss, and 5+ ATS losses, overall, have cashed 62% since 2006. And the Valkyries have cashed just 37% as a home favorite vs. revenge-minded foes. Finally, Golden State falls into a negative 308-409-13 ATS system of mine which fades certain home teams off SU wins. Grab the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie. |
