About This Book

THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT SPORTS. STATS. AND STRATEGY?
YOU HAVEN'T MET MITCH.

New kid Mitch Sloan wants to fit in, but his nerdy love of statistics and making deals isn't winning him any friends in his sports-loving town—until he finds the perfect way to achieve instant popularity. But running a football betting ring that earns Mitch hundreds of dollars eventually turns sour when he's caught and loses the only real friend he had. Now he'll have to win her back by using his brainpower to help the school football team achieve victory—if they'll listen to the advice of a former bookie!

Using the tips, truths, and scats they explore in their New York Times bestseller Scorecasting: The Hidden Influences Behind How Sports Are Played and Games Are Won, two dads pack super sports savvy and important math and money concepts into a fun and heartwarming first novel that also introduces financial literacy to kids.
