EDITOR'S NOTES: Dr Craighead during 2018 and 2019 had personal issues that did allow him to spend the time he desired to handicap the NFL and as a result did not participate with THESWAMI.COM. In 2019 and 2020 he also elected to not handicap during certain periods of time and that is why (NOT APPLICABLE) N/A is shown on records.

The Human Factor Basketball
The Human Factor has had an outstanding run of three consecutive NBA seasons. His NBA records for the last three years are (70-51-1), (66-44) and (44-28) for a combined +631.2 units. He has won over 140 units per season in each of the last three years. This type of consistency is the result of a system the Doctor has developed over decades of research.

After a few seasons of tweaking his system for college basketball, DR C broke out last winter with a +266 unit season. Over the previous three years, his NCAA plays are an impressive +410 units with a combined record of 243-187-17. This retired professor continues to refinehis system and we expect continued success from this analytic handicapper

BASEBALL

Dr Craighead and his computer team had a solid baseball season in their initial official MLB season at theswami.com. They historically have not released plays every day so if you are a person who wants lots of action this may not be your program. That said Dr. Craighead if he gets on a roll will pound the bookmakers with a surprisingly aggressive approach. Quoting Dr.C, "It is no secret that the only way to really make a lot of cash when playing the odds is to play aggressively "only" when you are winning."

NCAA BASKETBALL 6 SEASON HISTORICAL BREAKDOWN (2011-12 - 2016-17)

The Human Factor has shown a solid winning history in college basketball. 6 out of 6 plus post seasons is definitely a HUGE plus for Dr Craighead and his staff. Two +250 unit seasons shows why this outfit has gained support from theswami.com backers. Look for them to bounce back from their first negative season in 2017-18 in college baskets.

DR C last winter ran his numbers and psycho-bio-patterns on NCAA basketball through theswami.com. His results were impressive. 4 out 5 winning months and a solid 62.8% (44-26) mark. Interestingly because the factors he uses in his analysis 75% of all his selections fell on Friday and Saturday game days. Look for this sharp retired prof to win money on the court in 2011-2012.
NFL PRESEASON... qualifiers he went (14-7) in 2011 and will be an official entry come 2012.
NCAA FOOTBALL...qualified with impressive Top Play mark of (12-4) and overall hit a solid 60%. 47-31. Bowls went (6-2). Hit both GOY plays on dogs that won straight up.
NFL Regular season...Started after week 7 and went (10-5) with no Top Plays.
May not do NFL in 2012. If college is going well he will but if he is not hitting a solid win% he will pass on the NFL until Playoffs.
NFL PLAYOFFS...went (4-0)...all totals that did well.
MLB....will do qualifiers in 2012 to see if he can make it in 2013. Thru All-star break 2012 is (40-30) +6.50 units. (3-1) on Top Plays.
