    Hope all you kids ard in good health and spirit.


    Wanna share a little of my "knowledge" with you.....



    Wisdom - I've learned its not how much you know, its what you know. A HUGE part of what you must know is what you dont know. Step 2 is using what you do know to its full capacity. Step 3 is knowing where to look for the missing pieces. Example : You see a line that appears way off (many assume its Admiral Akbar and yell ....ITS A TRAP!!!! ) Nah, thats you using what you know (line looks off). Its also letting you know you dont know something . Step 3 involves you digging deeper and looking for the answer. Wisdom also means that....and I say this with all respect to those that use them....that stats are pretty much meaningless. You know who knows the stats better than you? Yep, the guys that made the line. What you need to focus on are intangiles....not stats, injuries etc. Momemtum, team chemistry & focus should be whagt you concern yourself with...along with lookaheads & letdowns (the sandwich angle). Obviously every favorite should win on paper.....Ohio Sts run late last year is a prime example...Against Bama with a backup qb...Easy Bama win right??? Right!!???


    Serenity - Lots of naysayers and whiners everywhere in life, and this site is no different. I used to mix it up with the riff raff that have always plagued this site and made many a good fella move on. Not me. I literally dont give a f..k what anyone on a message board has to say. I do what I do. I like posting and talking games. Sure, I lose my fair share and am wrong a lot. And? Its usually the sackless folks around here that dont post plays and wait til the games over to tell you the pick was stupid. Im supposed to care? Old me did. Ive since got the wisdom & serenity to change what I cant accept ( not winning enough) & accept what I cant change (the negativity losing brings). So, the TRAIN will continue to roll down the track and with the punches.

    1. Nothing is true.

    2. If anything were true it could not be understood.

    3. If something were true and understood it could not be communicated.

    4. If something were true, understood, and communicated it would not be understood by the recipient.


    From a Greek Philosopher, B. C. period

    hahaha, Train

    nicely done, you have to roll with the punches, it takes a pimp to put themselves out there weekly for everyone to see, you get criticism, naysayers, drama, whatever--- only a select few can do it and still win while giving up 10% juice, it is what it is

    nice email last week, you know I hooked you up with two winners so you will now owe ole Wahoo

    Well you are the first to fess up with your wins/loses, pretty fair write ups,sometimes with a little humor that keeps things in check. I for one don't tail anyone buy I always check you post and when we agree it is a good thing since I respect your capping knowledge. I've got some buddies from Columbia,the Pruitt brothers,they have a great trio called the Bel-Airs. If you see them around your part of the state they are well worth seeing,they play some "Muddy" ,"Wolf", Hound Dog Taylor, mostly old Blues, Slide guitar with a spark plug socket. Hope you and all the guys on this site do well with bowl season and return next season and knock em dead.

    2. Don't trust Whitey

    Great post, 100% accurate. These $2 Einsteins that couldn't hit the floor with their hat are quick to second guess, why then do they spend their time reading this incredibly entertaining thread--not enough hugs when they were babies.  ROLL ON TRAIN!

    Train......  Long time follower/lurker (years) and don't post often as you can see. Appreciate your sense of humor and the way you ignore and bash your haters.

     As for your most recent post, which was very eloquent, I want to add something that the smartest man I ever knew, my dad, told me. That is "A wise man knows what he doesn't know"! For those who can't figure it out, you're probably the same ones who come in week in, week out and are upset when the "good cappers"  (Train, Mega, Davidn, Wahoo, etc) don't hit 85% For the others, it's something to think about not just in sports, but pretty much life itself.  Again, thanks for the time and effort you out in, week in and week out. Win or lose, there are those who do appreciate it.

    Really funny you started off with that post this week as I wanted to pick your brain a little more on your weekly picks.  Sending you a friend request.  No worries if you don't have time to chat but figured I'd keep the questions I have for you and some of the other guys I follows off the threads so I don't annoy others or get in the way of some solid sports talk.

    BOL this week train. Great post man. It drives me crazy when I see these d bags posting crap in these threads. Mega's thread last week was out of control. I want to say something but what's the point you're not going to change them and it's only going to clutter up the thread. Thanks for all you do man. It's been a fun year! Lets finish strong man. and good luck in hoops this year. Not my flavor but i wish you nothing but success.

    Train as I have stated a number of times is one of the best, especially with how he deals with antagonists. How I wish I had his patience.

Wisdom also means that....and I say this with all respect to those that use them....that stats are pretty much meaningless. You know who knows the stats better than you? Yep, the guys that made the line. What you need to focus on are intangiles....not stats, injuries etc. Momemtum, team chemistry & focus should be whagt you concern yourself with...along with lookaheads & letdowns (the sandwich angle). Obviously every favorite should win on paper.....Ohio Sts run late last year is a prime example...Against Bama with a backup qb...Easy Bama win right??? Right!!???


    Serenity - Lots of naysayers and whiners everywhere in life, and this site is no different. I used to mix it up with the riff raff that have always plagued this site and made many a good fella move on. Not me. I literally dont give a f..k what anyone on a message board has to say. I do what I do. I like posting and talking games. Sure, I lose my fair share and am wrong a lot. And? Its usually the sackless folks around here that dont post plays and wait til the games over to tell you the pick was stupid. Im supposed to care? Old me did. Ive since got the wisdom & serenity to change what I cant accept ( not winning enough) & accept what I cant change (the negativity losing brings). So, the TRAIN will continue to roll down the track and with the punches.


    Don't post much and never criticize, unless it is to stripe a troll. I do read you weekly because I enjoy and respect your thoughts. At 67, I too am well past giving a tinker's damn what others think of my opinions. The above was very well written and I hope others, especially those most apt to be critical with no dog of their own in the fight, read and profit from the contents thereof. Best of luck going forward. Roll on!

    Train, i appreciate your posts/inputs on the games, win or lose. you are the very few that i still follow, to this day. Ive been on this board alot longer than what my registration date saids, 9yrs +, but just decided to register and posts and be active now. I follow you, Wahoo , Megalocks and back in the day...Pucku and Aussieguy. Ive learned that you are always going to have the garbage heads out there that are going to hate on a loss but will not give you praise on a win. They just want to milk you, sit behind their computers and act brave and type out non-sense. Dont let it get to you. Ive learned , being on other message forums (clubsi) , to not take the internet too seriously. They are shitty people out there that hide behind their computers and project their negativitiy on to others because they fail at life. It is not personal. Keep doing what you are doing sir, there are much more people who appreciate what you are doing here than those that do not. 

    I AGREE 100% about you analysis on capping the games.

    Exactly true.

    Nothing is true absolutely - truth is relative to the perspective as Einstein showed with relativity.

    One person's truth may differ from another person, and that truth may differ from yet another person, where each can not successfully communicate to the other, and if they could then they could not understand the other.

    The way we gain knowledge limits what we can know, and this limitation means we can never know the truth.

    Is it true that So. Miss. + 7 1/2 covers this week? No one including yourself, really knows. They have the better defense while both offenses are closer to each other than the defenses, but who can predict turnovers, penalties, and unusual (miracle) plays ?. 

    Hit 100% all the time and I will say there is a truth and you know it.

    One persons truth is not necessarily anothers.



    Exactly true.

    Nothing is true absolutely - truth is relative to the perspective as Einstein showed with relativity.

    One person's truth may differ from another person, and that truth may differ from yet another person, where each can not successfully communicate to the other, and if they could then they could not understand the other.

    The way we gain knowledge limits what we can know, and this limitation means we can never know the truth.

    Is it true that So. Miss. + 7 1/2 covers this week? No one including yourself, really knows. They have the better defense while both offenses are closer to each other than the defenses, but who can predict turnovers, penalties, and unusual (miracle) plays ?. 

    Hit 100% all the time and I will say there is a truth and you know it.
