"Smooth" Jimmy Apollo is a cigar-smoking pro-football commentator and statistician on TV.
History
Jimmy Apollo appeared on Inside Football Today where he was interviewed by Bret Gunselman. Homer watched Jimmy Apollo's predictions for betting. Apollo claimed he got an accuracy rate of 52% and he also used a huge padlock to illustrate his "Lock of the Week" pick. His predictions included:
- Denver Broncos - New England Patriots: Apollo predicted a win for Denver but he missed.
- Cincinnati Bengals - Miami Dolphins: Apollo predicted Miami, with them winning 24-10.[1]
His advantages are being right and not being wrong, while his disadvantages are being wrong and compulsive gamblers that take his advice.[2]
