Belforti Investments Wins 3rd Straight Bowling Title at the Annual Vince Wilfork Draft Party Fundraiser at Pinz in Milford, MA on Saturday, April 25, 2009.

One of the few constants in life is change, but not every time…here is link to original article I wrote 2 years ago..updated below for 2009.

The New England Patriots 2004 #1 Pick and soon to be All-Pro (delete “soon to be”since I was correct) DT Vince Wilfork celebrated NFL draft day with the good people at Pinz in Milford, Mass. on April 25th, 2009

Belforti Investments sponsored a team in the bowling tournament, won 1st place and wore their signed team bowling jerseys from 2007 (see photo), which will be used to defend their title at next year’s charity event for diabetes research. Several other Patriot players (Stephen Gostkowski, Ty Warren, Jarod Mayo, Mike Wright, Wesley Britt, and others) were in attendance at the well managed event.

The boys and girls from Milford (Ronnie Pagnini - MVP 162 score, Dan Belforti, Luke Chicarelli, Jayne and Peter Moynihan) were joined by Patriot soon to be All-Pro and Hall of Fame placekicker Stephen Gostkowski (158) to put forth a Patriotic performance in bowling over the 2nd place winning team by an average of 47 pins (147 team average per string).

Team captain and Belforti Investments promoter Dan Belforti added, “This large margin of victory is consistent with the outperformance of our model portfolio vs. the average mutual fund, hedge fund or stock market index over the past 5,10 or 20 years.”

The model portfolio (Dan Belforti’s own rollover IRA accounts) achieved an average annual return on investment of 15.5% from January 1, 2000 thru March 31, 2009, continuing his streak of positive portfolio returns in each calendar year. The S&P500, an index of the largest 500 stocks, lost 2.2% on average per year over the same time period.

Belforti explains, “Similar to Vince Wilfork, Tom Brady and the rest of the dynastic New England Patriots, we EXPECT to win every year when we faithfully execute our strategy, which the portfolio has done successfully in each calendar year since inception in 1986.”

Belforti advises, “Spend far less than you make, invest your savings well and you will achieve financial independence. It is just common sense, and it is also The Correct Answer.”

More pictures of the event posted on Dan’s Facebook page…

The Belforti Bros finished the 2008/2009 NFL season with a 28-19 (60%) record vs. the spead on our picks of the week (sorry Steelers didn’t cover SB as we boldly predicted). You might say we were Bel”40%” Incorrect. In last 81 picks, we earned a 65.1% winning percentage with 54 wins and 29 losses.

Although I got the Pats to win SB at 10.15 to 1 on Jan 13th at TheGreek.com they lowered odds immediately after my $500 max bet and are now at a still generous 5.45 to 1 (true odds are probably 2 to 1 given that Tom Brady will likely be better than ever in 2009).

danwithmikevrabel.jpg Going to Tampa but can’t bear to watch another Steelers blowout win as I already experienced this season in the cold rain in Foxboro. Instead, I’ll reflect on Super Bowl years past with my beloved Patriots, and posted several of my favorite pictures on my facebook page Click on this link and be my friend if you also have a page!

It’s not often that a son declares that his Dad has TheCorrectAnswer.com , but in this game we agree with our Dad that it should be about a 24 point Super Bowl spread…my prediction is 41-17. No disrespect for Kurt Warner, a deserved Hall of Famer who learned how to take care of the football this season, but the Pittsburgh defense may be the best ever while the Cards defense is quite ordinary for NFL standards.

Hi Dan and Mark,

I am not a betting man , BUT I think with the Steelers only giving 7 Points to the lowly Cardinals, this could be one of the biggest blowouts in the history of the Super Bowl !
My prediction: Steelers 34 Cardinals 10

Belforti Bros 2008/2009 Record vs Spread including playoffs: 28 wins and 18 losses for 61%. In last 80 picks vs point spread = 54 wins and 28 losses = 66%.

Last week picked three of four against spread (but only published 2 on this site for a 1-1 official record). Hear archived interview discussing games/picks and MUCH more with Camden Mitchell at http://odeo.com/episodes/23873228-Camden-Mitchell-Joins-Dan-in-Studio-To-Discuss-NFL-Playoffs-Israeli-Attacks-Gaza-and-Investing-in-2009

Belforti Bros 2008/2009 Record vs Spread including playoffs: 27 wins and 17 losses for 61.4%. In last 80 picks vs point spread = 53 wins and 27 losses = 66.3%.

Much better than my measly 2008 ROI in the stock market of only 1.92% on my model portfolio (my IRAs and 401K rollover). Achieved documented 14.8% per year from 1/1/2000 to 12/31/2008, with zero losing calander years. Looking to find an investment advisor with 14% plus over same period, without any losing years as well, to diversify my own portfolios with, know anyone?? Happy to give $1,000 reward if you find him/her and refer them to me.

Championship Sunday Games:
Pittsburgh Steelers -5.5 vs Baltimore Ravens - Beat up Ravens probably lose their third game this season to their hated division rival Steelers. Both defenses playing great but edge to Pitt QB Big Ben (future Hall of Famer), WR Ward and RB Fast Willie Parker.

Philadelphia Eagles -3.5 at Arizona Cardinals - Eagles defense will pressure old man Kurt Warner into mistakes while Cards defense shows cracks vs occasionally explosive Philly offense with deep threat DeSean Jackson.

Hope we’re wrong on both games in a way since placed a $200 wager at 90 to 1 through TheGreek.com on a Cardinals/Ravens Super Bowl matchup before last week’s games!

January 10th, 2009

Baltimore Ravens +3 at Tennessee Titans - History from 2000 repeats itself, when Ravens knocked off number 1 seed Titans in Nashville. Ravens defense is ferocious!

New York Giants -4 vs Philadephia Eagles - Giants look ready to return to big game with consistent Manning protecting the ball (zero INTs in past 4 games) and Brandon Jacobs running like a horse through Phili defense.

Belforti Bros Final YTD Record vs Spread including playoffs: 26 wins and 16 losses for 62.5%. 52 wins and 26 losses in last 78 picks = 66.6% - sign of the Devil.
