He recommends OVER and the play is listed at 38 which is a line none of his followers are going to be able to get.
Game happens to land 38/39/40 and he's a winner (or pushed) yet the squares that paid him for his picks have lost. Just reason #1 out of many not to pay anyone for their opinions ---> you won't be able to get the same lines in a lot of cases!
