Sports and Numerology

It has reached that that time of the year again to ponder upon Portland s fortunes of fate for the NBA season to come. Right up front I am saying that the magic number is 56 wins plus or minus three. This is assuming there are no major injuries, accidents, or events that distract from […]

I do not have the time to crunch all of the numbers of this roster and examine the multitude of factors to make a detailed analysis of their summer run at a repeat title. I will say this: Anfernee comes of basketball age and demonstrates he is ready to take on a more serious role […]

The Anthony Davis trade to LA is, of course, the biggest item in NBA news so far this season. The lingering question left undiscussed by most NBA writers is, can two huge egos actually play together harmoniously for 82 games (plus more if they make the play offs)? This may be a bigger IF than […]

Close, but no cigar. The Blazers surprised us (except for old man numbers), entertained us (including old man numbers) and put together an exciting and accomplished season. I have already repeatedly pointed out organizational tips and suggestions as viewed through the numbers. These still apply. It is clear the Blazers could use a strong and […]

(Comments upon the Warriors series) As noted earlier, at times the blazers play is transcendent. The numbers I use have been mixed and it is as if at times they are (as some say) playing at another level! Damian Lillard’s leadership is unmatched and coach Stotts seems to have, at times, gotten out of his […]

I have been a professional numerologist for over 50 years and am best known for my attention to the evolution of human consciousness and encouraging personal growth and self awareness through numbers. Having been at one time an above average athlete, I have throughout the years casually followed some of the major sporting events of […]

(2018-2019 College Bowl Picks click here) Well here we are nearly one fourth of the  way into 2018-19 season. The Blazers are 13-10 and just got shellacked by the Spurs. What started out as a delightfully entertaining and well played beginning, has turned back into the now predictable Blazers pattern that has become repeated for […]

Ever since a couple years ago when I was the only sports prognosticator in the country to pick the Trail Blazers number of wins, I have had some performance anxiety about trying to match that year of accuracy. Unlike the year of my singular success when the numbers lined up so obviously, the numerical scheme […]

Now that we have been through the somewhat underwhelming Blazer draft period let’s take a look at some of the numerical indicators for the coming season. Numbers for the two drafted rookies suggest Neil Olshey may end up with kudos in the end after these two grow into their place with the team. First round […]

 I indicated three or four years ago that the numbers suggested this would be a crucial year (and probably successful) for determining the future direction of the team. Next year will be even more so. The numbers say CJ arrives and could eclipse Dame as the scoring leader. At the beginning of this season I […]

Early in the Season I posted my numerical forecast for this year’s Trail Blazers campaign emphasizing that the best prospects for an improved season appeared to be utilizing all of the talent and “play the rookies”. For a while they actually did this and prospered. And then slowly they drifted back into the compulsive Stotts […]

As the Portland Trail Blazers plod their way through what is pretty much so far another fair to middlin season, let us take a look at the numerical factors that have or have not been considered. Sometimes the sports fan wishes that coaches and management would get out of the “strictly basketball” mentality and use […]

  Nearly 50 years ago my then wife’s father had access to a betting establishment and I would occasionally bet on college football games using the numbers. I did quite well at the time averaging around 5 hits out of seven attempts. It was kind of fun at the time, but I did not take […]

BOWL PICKS 2017-2018 (Author’s Note) Years ago a professional colleague of mine who organized sessions and venues affectionately joked that , ” if Lynn’s reading is not accurate save it until next year”. I was often very accurate, but a year early for whatever reason. I have frequently been known for being ahead of my […]

I have previously acknowledged my interest and bias toward the Blazers and can toot my horn some about previous assessments and predictions. I wrote nearly three years ago that the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons would be significant to the franchise and most likely considerably more successful than previous years. This was, of course, based upon […]

Since 2014 I became numerically intrigued with the Portland Trail Blazers, becoming a follower and fan. After a series of blogs and articles that were uncannily accurate and outperformed the pros of the business, I have slowed down and have had diminished interest for reasons previously presented on the website. Once in a while it […]

After a 2015-2016 season of presenting stunningly accurate Trail Blazers preseason and pregame predictions, I have pretty much taken the 2016-2017 season off because they have for the most part been kind of boring. I was caught in the malaise of the listless play and predictable sports pundits’ trend to write them off. But, for […]

It is that time of the year for college football bowl game addicts, and the deciding of a national champion in the playoff series. Thousands of articles and media stories will be told and predictions by hundreds of sports pundits across the country will be made. Probably only one will look at the numerology and […]

Thought for the fun of it I would make a forecast of the NBA Western Conference coming season 2016-17. This involves some intuition, a little common sense, some numerology work and then a big guess– just like the pro sports coverage people do. I have on numerous occasions professed my clear cut Blazers bias, so […]

After all of the high brow pre-free agent talk coming out of various Blazers’s sources, the recent signing of Evan Turner has raised questions and turned heads everywhere. Say what? This is one time I join the often predictable postings of the beat writers, and numerically, say what? If you look at the numbers of the […]

To see all previous sports blogs. I mentioned at the end of last season I would be cutting back on my sports blogging. I still have an interest in the Blazers progress and was intrigued by their lonely draft pick, Jake Layman. From a numerical point of view, it appears that Jake’s agent pretty much […]

Why I have enjoyed following the Blazers! For a season and a half I have applied my numerology skills, intuition, and experience with human behavior to successfully and accurately analyze and predict insights and results about the Portland Trail Blazers. Oftentimes my observations were posted months before the sports beat people even saw things coming. […]

Having done so well analyzing and numerically predicting Blazers results over the last two seasons, I will now set my sights on the Blazers chances for the 2016 NBA playoffs. This will most likely be the last time I do so for the following reasons. At first numerical glance it looks like I will end […]

As a 50-year practicing professional numerologist, I decided to put my skills to the task of sports blogging focusing on a favorite team, the Portland Trail Blazers. During the 2014-15 season I accurately predicted personnel and game performances. So, before this season, I did an analysis of this year’s young and inexperienced Blazers. (Update: >>> http://forevernumerology.com/sports/portland-trail-blazers-numerology-playoff-predictions-2016/  […]

Those who have followed my work know by now that last August I picked the Blazers to win 47-49 games + or- 3. As of this writing (March 5, 2016), they are right on the cusp of finishing the season within that range. At the time of the original article I numerologically chose seven games […]
