Boom I think you need to become a college football analyst of some sort instead of betting on games. I bet you enjoy the hell out of betting games, but your passion for college football is as about as much passion you can have for someone of something. The sport could use of your insight because you love the game so much. As for the haters out their, Boom makes picks, gives reasons on why they will cover, and either you agree with him or you don't.  He certainly believes every pick he makes is going to be correct, that's why he backs his picks with so much confidence. Sometimes he's right, other times he's not.  Boom isn't a psychic at picking college football games, so when everyone gets upset that Boom made an incorrect pick, some people just come in here and start chewing him out because they wanted him to be right. When multiple people are in your ear, you obviously are going to retaliate unless you have no testosterone.  So when people come into Boom's thread  and complain he's an a**hole or ignorant, it's because so many people expect this dude to be perfect with his picks.  Boom IMO you have an undoubtedly passion for college football and I hope one day you can put that to work and become a college football analyst for ESPN rather than a capper.... Just my opinion though

Muark...

Thanks and yes. I would love more than anything to become some sort of analyst for college football, whether that be for espn or who ever. I feel as if it would be a effortless transition for me.

I do care more about the game and what is and stands for rather than the gambling side of it. Hey, if I knew how to get a shot at replacing corso when he leaves gameday....i would.

Boom2,

Keep on, keepin on. Last Saturday was my first losing Sat this season. Made it all back though last night with NE Pats moneyline parlayed with the OVER and then pressed more with same parlay for 2nd Half in that game and got it all back. Got lucky.

Thanks for all your efforts.

Enjoy your read!

Don't be so hard on your CLEM Tigers, Wake has a solid coaching staff and these guys are just kids on the field.  Coaching, and momentum play a huge role.

Hey Boom
I have been following your write ups and picking some of your picks most of the year.  unfortunately this week I almost went with all of yours exclusively and got hit pretty hard.  But, I know your the real deal so I'm banking on a good week from you this week.  I have lost 3 weeks in a row.  So, I'm counting on a bounce back.

Good Luck buddy

I love reading your analysis it is very honest and has a strong opinions. Its much better than anything you watch or read in the national media. Great Job.. Everyone who bets knows this time of year is usually favors that books.. But when bowl season starts people like you who know how teams actually match up can be a big advantage. Because bowls are basically exhibition games.

If you will permit to add an observation on last week to your thread, please. I am a Bill Snyder and KSU fan, how can you not pull for those guys. And aTm shits the bed yet again..... How can Texas be favored by 9 over Cats this weekend? KSU with Bill Snyder has owned Texas.

I think it def time to fade Stanford, I think Luck is going to try and stay healthy for the Draft. The rest of the team's slogan is, " well, we gave it a good run. Didnt work out. Now I can finally get back to my school work, and take a few hour break on Saturday!!"

Boom,

I respect you as a capper and have always read your threads. That being said, you remind me of an Alabama fan when you posted this:

"Well, It's my first real bad week of the year and believe me, this forum let me know it. Going 5 - 9 and losing 9 units sucks. But the way some of you children act in here is comical. How many of you can honestly say that you haven't had a bad week yet this season? The difference between me and you clowns that clutter my thread with your garbage is, look at the top of the page. Yeah, I had a bad week. But I always have a very profitable year. 8 consecutive years to be exact. One more thing haters, just because I had a bad week doesn't change anything. I still know more about the game of football than all of you nut jobs combined. To everyone else, thanks for your support."

That was just poor taste. Be the bigger man. We all have bad weeks. I have a a string of them. That is why I took a few weeks off. I am ready to get back in the game.

Yes, I think that most of the forum is garbage... Sorry if you dont see it that way. But here again, this is where I speak the truth and it hurts most of those knuckleheads.

Furthermore sparty...  I m going to post whatever I feel like posting. If I feel like posting just plays and analysis I will. But If I feel like speaking my mind I will do that too.... Guess thats what makes me different.

trackem....that stuff was only for the haters who come in my thread and try to take over... That had nothing to do with guys like you. I respect so many of you to the up most.

But you have to put the haters in there place sometimes.
