Throughout the entirety of Indy Sportsbook’s (albeit very short) history, we have prided ourselves on our commitment to each issue’s theme. Whether we are making puns about love and sex or examining how gambling can fit into the counterculture, we strive to make our degenerate musings a worthy inclusion. For the first unthemed issue of […]
The Sex Issue is the Harvard Independent’s biggest theme of the year, but it has proven to be a little tricky for us over here at Indy Sportsbook. While we consider both gambling and sex very worthwhile vices, the overlap between them is few and far between. Gambling is certainly not the “sexiest” subject—good luck […]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year—not the holidays, March Madness. Gambler’s paradise. The holy grail of sports betting. The time of year where sports fans can come together and rejoice with 67 games being played over the next three weeks. There is more to do than just watch them, as arguably the biggest […]
It goes without saying that the sports gambling industry has experienced a meteoric rise over the past few years. Widespread legalization has made wagering more accessible than ever before. A Harvard student will soon be able to bet on events as obscure as second-division Australian soccer (we like West Adelaide at +130) from the comfort […]
We were somewhere around New Haven on the edge of the ocean when the drugs began to take hold. And by drugs, I mean sleep deprivation and caffeine. The road trip from Boston to Philadelphia to watch Harvard defend their title at Women’s Squash Nationals had only been underway for 3 hours, but we were […]
Cooper: If you’re like us, and have little to no real gambling insight, betting on your favorite team can even the odds—figuratively speaking. There are many strategic advantages to consistently doing so, as fervent supporters that watch every game simply know more than the neutrals. When you’ve seen hundreds of Brady games, you know that […]
Money can’t buy you love, but you can love making money. The Indy Sportsbook is here for the latter, whether you’re looking to finance that pricey Valentine’s Day dinner or are just trying to feel something again. But before we unveil our upcoming picks, we’ll recap the most important holiday in February: the Super Bowl. […]
On paper, it was the perfect time for the Harvard Men’s hockey team heading into February 6th. Ranked #2 in the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) and #10 in the country, Harvard was playing in the 70th anniversary of the Beanpot tournament against an absolutely beatable BC team sinking below .500. The match was even […]
Gus Johnson has voiced some of the most memorable moments in sports. During his rise to fame as a CBS college basketball commentator, Johnson’s tenure with the network also included many NFL games, the 1998 Winter Olympics, two Champions League Finals, and the Madden 2011 video game. Currently serving as the lead play-by-play announcer for […]
Every February, a third of the country sits down to watch the Super Bowl. For many viewers, the appeal is obvious. This game represents the culmination of another season filled with storybook victories, heartbreaking defeats, and the Cowboys losing in the divisional round. The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs are the last teams left […]
