Football Seminar

Football Seminar Has anyone learned if Vegas Insider is going to host the annual football seminar in Vegas this summer? If I remember correctly, they did not have a seminar two years ago because of the poor economy. I am not sure if their business is declining in 2012. So far, I have not seen any announcements on their website. Since I don't handicap baseball, golf, WNBA or the CFL, I am already dedicating a lot of time preparing my numbers for the upcoming CFB and NFL season. At the Vegas Insider seminar, I have the opportunity to meet with a lot of guys whose opinions I respect. It also gives me the chance to compare my numbers and notes with knowledgeable handicappers. Thanks, charliej

Charlie: Not for sure whether VI is going forward with the football seminar at Red Rock again this August, but Jay Kornegay at the LVH is apparently planning a similar event for the weekend of Aug. 24. Matt Youmans of the R-J will likely have something in the newspaper soon about the new event, possibly even this Friday. Continued success this season, Paul

I'm no longer affiliated with VI but I spoke to a handicapper still involved there and he said it wasn't going to happen. FWIW
