Jim Feist announces he has prostate cancer

There is a down to earth side of him and this is it right here. I was waiting for him to end the video with “In honor of me battling cancer, you can have all the rest of my plays this year for just $82…”. But no tout pressure with something like this.

they need to find a cure for cancer. i feel like the health system plays games as the money is in the medicine and treatment, not the cure (like chris rock says). i hope i am wrong but it just feels like we don't make enough headway. at least AIDS now is much more manageable.
Not like it was in those days, but Feist makes some videos on YouTube every week with various panel guests. They are a good watch.
He still sells plays through his website also.
If he dies, what about people that paid $1000 for the whole season of picks? That was offered on the website back in August.
The “Feistlines” odds page was good in its day. I used it a lot in the early 2000’s. Lot of nice matchup data including “rescores” of prior games taking into account turnovers and such.

He's probably lying, look for him to ask for donations to help with his treatment.

If you live long enough almost all males will get prostate cancer of some level. Only question is how severe.
IMO-They have a cure for Cancer and probably have had one for decades.There is too much money in treatments and drugs for them to let it out..Sick effing people
Good point here. The growth of un-regulated betting helped him at first but the internet also made it easier to get odds/info from a lot of places. Even Don Best eventually had competition all over.
I think he was a gambler that was his downfall also
He was in the line service business. Same time as Don best I think it was called NSS.
He had sports tickers on TV screen all over cable systems, to get to the line service you had to use a shell account dial up and telnet into his service I had everything
The problem was he probably didn’t have the money to build those products out

Yes, and Feist still refers to “National Sports Services” all the time on his websites.
I could see how he might have been juggling to stay going money-wise. I’m sure after exposure on USA network declined it was tougher competing with other touts on the internet.
He also got involved with poker for a while and that’s usually a money-loser. I guess life and health changes over time wore him down too.
