How did you get involved with confidence pools? Me: My Dad


Hello Reader,

Ever wondered how Confidence Pool Picks started? Well, it all traces back to my journey of making NFL picks.

As an analytics lover, I immediately set out to figure out a better way to make picks instead of "gut feel." I posted these picks on my blog, and Confidence Pool Picks was born!
