Guest Blog: Pickmoto Tracks the ESPN Pickers, Week 13
December 7, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
Editor’s note: This blog is a series from Pickmoto, a fantasy sports mobile app. Week 13 What the … a bad week for Wickersham! Though it was just minus-11, it was only the second negative score he’s posted all year (he dropped 34 in Week 6). His bad week was all the more surprising because only 2 other ESPNers didn’t gain ground: Schlereth and Golic. That’s not the company Wickersham usually Read More>>

Wi-Fi Whispers: Is Time-Warner Cable Deal With WeFi About Mobile Sports Content?
December 5, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
The news that came out last week continued an interesting question: why would a cable company want to expand its free Wi-Fi services? Could it be that a big cableco sees free Wi-Fi as a way to keep its current cable customers -- by making sure they can watch sports content wherever and whenever they want? Nobody knows for sure yet, but in all the numerous news reports of the recent deal between Read More>>

Guest Blog: Pickmoto Players as Good as ESPN Pickers?
December 1, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
Editor’s note: This blog is a series from Pickmoto, a fantasy sports mobile app. WEEK 12 We’ve put a bullseye on the ESPN “Experts” this season. We’ve dissected who among the dozen is label worthy (Mort, Wickersham) and who is definitely not (Jackson, Ditka, Allen).

Guest Blog: Pickmoto Tracks the ESPN NFL Experts
November 24, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
Editor’s note: This blog is a series from Pickmoto, a fantasy sports mobile app. WEEK 11 As you might expect in a week in which Favorites nearly ran the table, the ESPNers shined. None were as perfect as 33 Pickmotoers, but Golic, Jaws, Schlereth, and Carter came close, only whiffing on the Rams. And Hoge, Mort, Wickersham, Jackson, and Ditka were right behind with 1 wrong pick on top of the Read More>>
