American Sports Analysts, Inc. (ASA) was formed in 1997 and has quickly grown into one of the largest and most respected companies in the Sports Handicapping Industry. The owners, founders and handicappers at ASA Inc are Lee Kostroski and Michael Merlet. They were previously employed at one of the oldest services in the nation and have now worked together in the industry for 13 years. If you’ve dealt with other handicapping services in the past, chances are, ASA has a drastically different approach to things.
Rather than the “chew you up and spit you out” approach that many services take, they absolutely value their clients. Once you decide to join ASA, they want you as a long time customer, which most of their clients are. ASA truly believes they work harder than any other service and they’ll always be honest with their customers. No false advertising or outrageous claims at ASA. They are monitored by The Sports Monitor and Sports Watch so you can check out their accomplishments with them.
Last Football season alone, ASA finished in the top 10 in nine different categories of College and NFL football as documented by the Sports Monitor and Sports Watch. Included in last year’s results were three #1 finishes. Since their inception in ’97, they’ve finished in the top 10 over 40 times with numerous #1 titles.
ASA has become known throughout the country for the success they’ve had with their Top Games in College Football. The highest rated play they release each year is their 10-star Midwest Game of the Year which has a perfect 6-0 lifetime record. Their College Football Top Game mark (5-stars and above) is unprecedented in the industry with a 30-9 record (77%) since the start of the 2000 season (documented by the Sports Monitor). Overall, College & NFL included, ASA’s Top Game record is 53-27 (66%) since the beginning of the 1999 season.
