Winners and Whiners writer Ben Hayes

Ben has been a successful writer, radio host, handicapper and editor for over 30 years. He played a variety of sports growing up before realizing that writing and handicapping was his calling. He’s understood the evolution of all sports through evaluation of performance and statistics. Injuries, personnel changes, morale, coaching issues, and fatigue are just some of the factors Ben looks at when handicapping along with analytics. He’s not one to look back and say, “back in my day, things were better.” But he also believes that if you learn from past, you make better choices today in all facets of life including handicapping.
