We’re starting to plan our family holiday for this coming spring, and we’re thinking of doing something different this year, like going to Arizona to see the Chicago Cubs play in the Cactus Leagues as part of their spring training. We’ve never been to Arizona so it would be a bonus to go there. The Grand Canyon would have to be on the list of sites to see.

The Spring Training games are taking place in Mesa, Pheonix, Scottsdale, Tucson, Tempe In March so we’d just have to figure out when we want to go in order to figure out which Spring Training tickets to the Cubs we’d want to purchase.

I think we’d probably go near the beginning of March and if we do most of the games are in Mesa around that time period. They’re being held in Hohokam Park. The best seats are right behind home plate in section 100 row L, but the seats in section 115 row A that are just past first base on the Chicago Cubs side look pretty good too. I guess we’ll have to decide which we want and see what’s available and we should probably do that soon before all the best seats are sold out. Decisions decisions. Nah we’re going to have a great time. I’m even going to see if I can get my brother to get some time off work and come with us. He lives in Chicago and he’s a Cubs fan so I’m sure he’d love to join us.

I’ve never been much of a better but I do follow Football, baseball and hockey games and occasionally enter into friendly bets with friends. I do know a lot of people that bet seriously on games, well on just about anything really. I guess it can be addictive, and maybe I’m just lucky that it never caught on too much with me.

I did find a site that I’m told is one of the oldest sports handicapping websites online today. Jimfeist.com offers Football Picks and full game analysis on all major games and sports including basketball, football, hockey, baseball, horse racing, golf and many more. Free picks are offered daily as well in order to showcase the handicapper’s talents at calling the game’s winner.

Jimfeist.com has everything you need to stay ahead of the game. There are several sections to the site including scores and stats, Proline, Sports Picks and even contests - there are four active contests right now. You can also get workbooks and magazines, sports schedules, schedule updates, league reports, plus information from Linetracker.com and OffshoreConnection.com.

I know I’m going to have to tell a few friends about this site so they can get their sports picks. I’ll probably never see them anymore once I tell them about this site ’cause they’ll be too busy hanging out on it doing all their sports betting.
