Something that I have always wondered about but never really got around to knowing is why do they call it "handicappers?" I always hear the term but never knew why it is called that

Wikipedia has an article about the word: Handicapping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

They don't have a citation so you might want to check up on that though. Just thought it might help a bit.
