WISCONSIN vs. NOTRE DAME: Of all the games I've capped in the past year, this was the toughest.

Read all the comments guys. Everybody including Melos MacWestie and all others, the kind words mean a lot.. (I point out those two because I go back the furthest with them but I know and appreciate all the other posters/regulars/friends).

And Mystic, I used to go after trolls like you but no more. And I've benefited greatly after such a decision since I don't expound mental energy on trolls anymore and instead use it to cap.

Here is the first and most important rule on Covers: Post Winners.

End of story.

You want to be a troll? Have some class. Attack a losing pick. Even attack a losing pick that was moosed beyond belief. But don't sit there and go after winners, especially ones that clearly state in the OP that you most definitely didn't read, that this will be an extremely close game and Wisconsin will fight like hell to keep it close the entire way, which they did to perfection for 39 minutes.

Don't go after a winner because it wasn't a 10+ win or wasn't to 'your liking'. Maintain a morsel of honor in your troll community.

And Cd (Kool-Aid), yes you CAN be Ultra-selective. It takes a ton of learned discipline but you can do it. The NUMBER ONE reason books make money is due to the volume of bets they put out. The more you play, the less focus you have and the more vig you pay on winners, and the closer you winning percentage inches towards 50%.

But the books release what? 100 games a day? 150 during peak season? They simply can't release 150 sharp lines. You need to go after ONE game in that entire bunch. ONE! Believe me, you can find one game to burn them on. Then you can even let them post 100 games for 7 days. That's 700 games. I took ONE line and ONE game and burned them. We all can do this! 

We are going to attempt the burn the books for TEN in a row. When the time is right.
