nropp: Given the time and care that you put into a single unit play - or even a 'Lean' for that matter, any regret in a ten-unit bomb?

Win or lose, I wanted to pose this. 
No hard feelings if you're not up for it.

Recently, there is one thing I've noticed about your plays....they all seem to be short lined games.  Rarely are you taking a team +10 or +14.5, but instead choose games that are a Pk or -1, 2.  

Is this just a coincidence or do you seek these out?

It seems to me that these would be games that are the hardest to pick, such evenly matched teams.

In fairness, he did pretty well on his other plays.

Just not sure how this one fell under a "POY" category.  Seems odd.

This thread is sheer comedy.  The guy gets ripped for the majority of the game for the pick.

NDSU comes back and takes it into overtime and people get ready to suck Neil's c*ck once again.

NDSU runs out of steam and loses and now they are back to the "why was this a game of the year" play.

Its hillarious that well before the game even start you had tons of guys asking why does this warrant a GOY and couldn't come up with a legitimate reason and yet you STILL decide to play it big because its a GOY selection? LMFAO

One thing I can guarantee you, this "GOY" selection didn't kill Neil's bankroll. Can you say the same thing?

Oh, don't get me wrong i'm in no way knocking him. His write ups are great and display a level of basketball knowledge approached by very few. I'm just saying most people on this site after reading them can't help but to make a bet. Especially with the POY label, you knew EVERYONE was going to tail this one.

I dont think neil really cares what you guys think , he still only lost 3.5 units today with 1 unit on new mexico pending , even if that loses its not like he lost his whole bankroll he would still bu up about 6 units on the year , its not much but its still +

100% agree, Neil very rarely if ever even bothers to respond to any of this garbage

Well lets see, one of them was 10 units... which do you think was the POY? Come on now... take a second and think about what you're asking before you ask it
