Christ! No wonder this poor guy has to start a new thread! Enough already! He had a break even night at 3-2-1 for zero units. There is noone in these forums that disects a game like this guy and trys this hard. Search the threads! This guy works hard. Have you seen what the paid touts are hitting on college basketball this year? Trust me, it's a f**king joke! I hope he ignores the bullshit and keeps going. I appreciate his hard work and dedication. Arkansas State or no Arkansas State. I don't frankly care if the team stayed on the bus and dressed the cheerleaders for this game. A loss is a loss at 1/2 point or 50!

Why so you can claim his plays as your own SPD?

 

No one help this assclown. This is an alias of the gone bust tout SportsPickDirect. He has been been posting Nropps plays as his own to solicit his tout business...

 

Man, what a loser.

He'll ignore the BS he doesn't let it bother him. However he wasn't even money yesterday. He was down 1.5 units I think

Again, the manic nature of many recent posts makes me ashamed to even visit the forum.

Unfortunately, sports betting - or any gambling for that matter - unearths a lot of desperate people...a lot of low-lives...that's just the nature of it. 

NRopp has made a killing thus far; predominantly on games that require incredible knowledge and patience to find value on...To be frank, I'm not even sure why he takes the time to share what he does, I certainly would not.

With that said, don't you dare flip a sh*t because he loses a few games.

Nropp is smart enough not to let some little nagging mosquito-like haters to throw him off his game.  Along with KGC, Nropp is the BEST capper on the board. 

Keep up the great results Nropp and thank you for all of your time and hard work.

Nropp-  I am not a big Friday night basketball wager person.  I do like one on the card though.  SIENNA- they just recently got back their best Senior in Clarence Jackson.  They are still a team that is motivated to win the respective conference and by all the news releases they have put out it is still their objective.  They are +2.5 at St. Peters.  I really believe this is a very solid play and the line is based on past play. Your thoughts?

RJ.....I guess I am going to post as a quasi-semi moron.

But really, nropp>>>>you are the best at overlooking the whining, and the clutter.

You keep your eye on the prize....and that is hard work at capping for winners.

You are one of three that I tail almost everyday.

Thanks

I'm not a big Friday person either, but as long as the IVY League stays off the Friday card, it's more enjoyable to look at, LOL. I will comment on the St. Peter's game in a bit.

Sounds good.  I have done my research and really like it.  Jenkins of St. Peters is a very solid player putting up 31 last time out but with that said I am not sure he can match that with a team that believes they can still win the conference.  I think their hiccup January 11th at Niagara.  Since then they have showed well and are playing with some confidence.  From my reports Clarence Jackson is not 100% but Ive been around sports as an athlete that even if the guy is 80% and your best player it brings the team together and gets them more motivated.  I feel this Siena team may be a team to watch the rest of the way in their conference.

1/20 Results: Austin Peay and Murray State both lose…at home. Appalachian State losing sets up even more value Saturday with the trip to COC. Didn’t realize the lookahead spot for New Mexico State (they go to Utah State) until I started glancing over Saturday notes. Gonzaga beat up pretty badly, and Chattanooga came out flat. 

Sides: 50-36, +15.30
Totals: 44-22, +25.50
DNP: 70-55


1/21 Notes: After road losses this year, Butler has returned home and won those games by 30, 20, and 24 points. Wisconsin Green Bay’s guards are offensively gifted, but they aren’t great defenders. GB’s got a tough stretch coming up: Butler, then Valpo, then Wright State, then Detroit. Wisconsin MKE has a lookahead to Butler. Fairfield is on the 3rd game of a 4 game roady. The fourth game is against Niagara, so if they were to come crashing down, this would be the one. The style of play that they bring to the table works really good if you have a good offense. They’ve been winning games on the defensive side of the ball, and in this conference, it’s only going to work against half the teams. Canisius likes to get up and down a bit, so if that becomes the case here, then Fairfield’s going to need to find another avenue of scoring. Fairfield’s won five straight, and a majority of them have come down to the wire. Niagara’s offense is stale to say the least without Edwards and Mason. They’re still going to run, and they’re still going to force at least 20 ill-advised shots in the game, and despite a bad offense, they still have scorers on the court. The two best players being PG’s helps in certain situations, and should help against Iona’s guard defense and pressure. That’s for certain, but it doesn’t help that these guys are counted on to score. Not only do they have to set up the offense, they have to get the ball back and create as well. Iona’s overmatched at every other position other than one of Niagara’s guards, and this over would be a no-brainer with Edwards/Mason playing. I’d still point over without them, there should be many opportunities, but Niagara is going to have to score to send this over and I’m not sure I can trust that. They have looked bad, but those games also came against very different styles of basketball and slow games in Manhattan and St. Peters. The team can’t score in the half court against slower teams, but they can score in transition. If you look at St. Peters on the year, they have struggled with teams who don’t mind slowing it down and they’ve taken care of business when they are able to take teams out of their comfort zone. Siena’s offense would be a team that qualifies as playing horribly offensively when it’s out of it’s comfort zone. Add in the fact that Jackson is getting back into the rotation, and I don’t think it’s a good spot for them. The team’s looked really, really bad even in recent wins against lesser, and I couldn’t back them on the road outside of a possession. Both of these teams have taken some hits injury-wise, and Siena hasn’t had the necessary time to find their identity, and neither has St. Peter’s. Along with all of that, one thing is for certain. St. Peter’s has had this game circled for months. Their entire offseason focused on this game, finally getting over the hump and taking out Siena. Coach Dunne emphasized it in numerous interviews in the offseason, and they have an opportunity to do so in a nationally televised spot. Is Siena the better team? Coming into the year, yes I thought so. Now? Possibly. But I’m not the type of guy to go against a good motivational spot, and that’s what St. Peter’s qualifies under tonight.

Bets: None
DNP: None

No feel. Butler generally doesn't give up too many points at home when they're focused, and they should be at full focus coming off a loss. That would be the only thing that concerns me. Butler should be able to score.
