Anyone know Hank's record year-by-year?

I don't keep up with it, but from what I see so often, this guy is terrible and I can't believe he still gets work on major networks, like he is some kind of guru.

Every time I see him pick games, it goes something like this. "Ok Hank your off the hook from going 1-4 last week, what do you have today?"

I almost never see him have a positive week and if he does, its like one game over .500, which is fine if you do it every week.

Seems like if you fade Hank, you make money in the long run.

Thanks pipes.

That's not "bad" but seems like the norm for him year after year. How does this guy continually get a paycheck from top networks when several from this site could do better.

You would think they could find a guy who is at least somewhere around 55% year after year. Always a chance for an off-year but I think just below .500 for Hank is probably pretty good for his career.

I think overall, the public loves 2 things.

I think the public loves the underdog (moneyline) and I think they love chalk.

I do not think the public loves underdogs when it comes to points...

I agree, I wouldn't play him or fade him...I just don't understand why he is viewed as some kind of gambling guru when he is so very average or worse

Totally agree.... Vegas wanted Pitt ML and AZ to cover the points.... They got both.... 70 something % on AZ ML to <30% on Pitt ML.... Then all the Pitt backers had Pitt -7 even (ended up around 40-50%) and the slight public favorite of AZ +7 -120 Vegas lost a little..... Overall, Vegas wins again..... Was the 1st TD within the 1 yd line or was it 1 yd.... There was a bet about 1st TD less (cant rememeber if it was 1 yd or less) 1 paid 18 to 1 at my book..... then 2-9 paid like +700, 10-17 paid +... and so on and so on.... Just wondering on that one.... House lost alot on INT to be returned for TD, a safety hitting during game, (no fumble for TD happened though), and a TD (big favorite) NOT BEING 1st score cuz of challange.....


I will never forget my PITT 1st H -3.5 with 15 seconds left and 2nd n goal from the 7 or something thinking well,"I lost all the profit on 1st qtr Pitt min -.5'..... AND THEN BAM, the out of gas man running all that way and then having a scrutinizing replay over and over after a penalty also on the play Pitt had to overcome..... WINNER WINNER!!!!! Because of that, easy middle opp with AZ pk 2nd half (+10) to protect me from all the money I had on Pitt ML I had taken from friends (fun money of course) offering 1.9, 2.0, 6.0, and 25:1 if AZ won the game this night.... (the 6 and 25:1 were 2 weeks ago and at the beginning of the playoffs)..... Dont have much hair if any left from all the CRAZY WOMEN that stressed me out all the time and the Heavy Metal lifestyle of the 80s and 90s, (SNOWstorms, Crackin' away, booze cruisin... you get the pt), but whatever hair I did.... sure lost it when the refs chucked the flag for the safety AFTER the catch was made to insure AZ had a GREAT opportunity instead of what probably would have been ZERO chance.......
