Here we have another one of the 'trolls from the shadows'.

You only see him once in a blue moon much like the corpse flower blooms every 7 years.

And like the corpse flower when he enters the forum it smells like rotting flesh.

Here's his message. "DON'T CAP at all and if you do it's a desperate attempt to improve your record!"

Because under his conditions, you'd just stay at 0-1 forever because well, that's how he thinks and uh...yeah.

Wow. The posters here.

First Ben Hogan CANNOT understand, after a DOZEN STRAIGHT LOSSES, now to teams with 2/5ths of their starters missing, why a team is tanking,

Then Milky misreading that Ben was talking about the Rockets tanking NOT the Nets (something I've corrected MANY other posters on),

to JR focusing on ONE loss instead of 3 winners.



I'm gonna put this ENTIRE forum under my foot like a cigarette butt.

SHAPE THE HELL UP PEOPLE. DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME???

Who here agrees with Ben Hogan that the Suns are not tanking?


I WANT ONE POSTER.

ONE.

And tell me why?


Because his argument is because there is no consensus #1 and therefore, why care to tank because the top 5 picks are all blue m&m's and ya just pick one and poof, it's all the same.

I mean, WHO wouldn't want to have their choice at #1 or #2. I mean, just give me #5 even though we've lost a dozen in a row. Let's start winning now to fly past the Lakers.

ONE POSTER.

JUST ONE.

Agree with Ben and tell me why the Suns are not tanking?

Does ONE poster buy his argument?


ONE.

Scal - 

I been one of your ardent supports (loved the digging of the UCLA and UConn streaks from before) - just nice to see stuff like that.

But, my humble opinion - stop with the "I'm gonna put this ENTIRE forum under my foot like a cigarette butt" comments.

Real cappers are betting $50k+ a game - not saying you should be doing that - but over time they built bankrolls and syndicates etc etc.  They aren't worried about FORUM posters.  If you truly want to be one of the best ever (and get Steve Wynn for what he did to your family, etc) - focus your energies on the games.

I am HAPPY to see you bet more than 1 game today.  The whole "I bet 1 game a day" is stupid - basically if you see 2 good plays - whether they are 1hr apart or 1 week apart they both should be played.

Continued good luck sir.

And what do you focus on?

THE ONE LOSS and not the 3 winners.

Cut the crap man.

Hold your tongue.


3-1 on the night to bring the record to 12-17.

Scal .... WWE? Really? How can you even bet on something thats predetermined before it happens. 

I never give you any sh!t, and I'm not even trying to give you any here, its just dont you think thats a bit of a stretch counting that?

Kvs, it's clearly not about MONEY.

I have said many times I don't care if you bet $50,000 or $50, it's all relative to you.

I have been putting up with posters, many of who are the SAME ones, for a decade and I'm tired of it.

A SIMPLE comment like the "Suns are tanking" which at this point should be a POSTULATE, is rejected.

Are you fu**ing kidding me? I have to waste my time on a cap EXPLAINING THIS?

Why come to a forum if you are debating trifling garbage instead of talking about the actual game at hand and adding to the cap?

Then another poster thinks I'm talking about the Nets tanking (something I clearly am not and it's obvious if you simply read a few sentences)!

This has been going on for TEN + years because these posters DON'T LIKE ME (largely because I defend the black race against their constant defamation).
 
So yes they WILL go under my foot and it has NOTHING to do with syndicates, money or anything else you referred to.

Excuse me. It pays the exact same winnings as any other sport and there odds were exactly the same.

If the odds are -110 why WOULDN'T I COUNT IT or better make actual money of it??? Because you think it unusual? Because you don't watch wrestling and know the entire storyline arch of a wrestler and then can determine a result? 

Don't take something that is foreign to you and think "Hey that was a guaranteed winner, he can't count that!" If it were GUARANTEED, you should put your entire house on the bet even if it were a cricket race.


Your response should have been "Wow. You bet on something pre-determine? Lead me to that thread so I can make money FAR EASIER THAN betting the NBA where players SHI+ on the game!"

And not only that, I had to win FOUR matches, perfect on all to win that bet. The WWE is famous for throwing in last minute match ending switches to these bets and having them go up in smoke.

Some of my friends have their GREATEST BET not be from a pro sport but be from PRO WRESTLING when Lesnar beat Taker to break his 21 match winning streak at Wrestlemania. That bet paid NINE TO ONE. Try hitting a 9-1 shot EVER in a single night on a single play. It can be done in pro wrestling if you know what you are doing.

Now here come to trolls who will go baths+it crazy about a wrestling bet because well they have no idea how to bet it because they reject it from the get-go (because it is low class, trailer park trash, its "ga y", all that stereotypical garbage).

If I was a bit too harsh I apologize Ben and Hrad.

Let's just agree on two things:

1) The Suns are tanking. End of story. I can't continue with this. 

2) If you can make money by betting on something, cap it and profit from it.

If I was told I had to watch a dozen seasons of The Bachelor (even the one Jesse Palmer) because at the end of it all, there were opportunities to make money "capping" the show, I would. 

And SO SHOULD YOU.

Now let's stop this "Sweaty men are rolling around in bikini briefs and if I watch that I'm a raging guy" trash and let's make some money. You would have made a bunch if you followed my cap of Wrestlemania 33 in GD. More to come.

And just to add, about 75% of the wrestlers don't even wear the bikini brief tights that you feel threatens your masculinity anymore.

The Taker Reigns match looked like both guys were dressed like iron workers.

The point? We can make money off this. End of story.

It's called "Getting up to take a leak and checking your phone".

So don't bother telling the forum I'm the genetic offspring of Nostefaru. It wouldn't have been funny to begin with.

Scal,

What do you make of the Gonzaga / North Carolina game tonight?
Can you, as of yet, decipher any angles / edges?

Taking UNC. Obvious angle: retribution from last year with inferior competition compared to Villanova. I think the line of -1.5 is perfect.

Can Zags shut down X-factor J. Jackson a la Virginia's Defense...??
But just don't care for 67% public bets on NC w/ slight RLM —
and the easiest path I've ever seen in decades given by NCAA
to Gonzaga...  Perhaps there's a few too many debts owed Few...

Remember when you posted the " Tim Hardaway jr angle".

That made my day.... I still chuckle when I think about it.


Forget the hate ........  just laugh it off.

When the most obvious of infractions - by 2 Zags on the same play -
were clearly seen by all except 3 Refs... then a Tech foul on top of it -
6 point swing assured a Zags win, and the calls they've been getting.

NCAA has its issues with UNC and fake tests, fake grades
of "student" athletes...

To be fair I have no problem with WWE/WWF/or just wresting in general. I used to watch it all the time as a early-teen. Just fell out of love with it. My only point was that I've "followed" you for years, maybe not tailed your picks everytime but atleast popped in to see what you were picking and to read your writeup, and have never seen you play 4 picks in a night (being this non selective). The WWE one just stood out to me, I understand it was Wrestlemania and a huge night for the sport, but taking a bunch of big favs in matches and throwing them into a -110 bet just didnt seem like Scal to me. It worked, and you went 3-1 on the night which is huge, just seemed odd to me that you've seen to step out of your comfort zone a bit. BOL and hope you dont take this as bashing cause its not. I usually save my skepticism and digging for the idiots on this thread, just thought I'd ask you what I was thinking.

Wrestling is different from real sports, being that it's predetermind you can parlay huge chalk like that and not worry. Lesnar was going to get his win back, he was 0-2 vs Goldberg and was eliminated by him at Royal Rumble, Brock would have to be paralyzed on a botch to lose.

They wouldn't bury one of their top stars by making him job to a non-wrestler in the biggest show of the year. Shane Mcmahon hasn't won a singles match in any capacity since 2006.

His analysis on the HHH/Rollins match was dead on. The only argument you could possibly make to the contrary was they let HHH bury CM Punk, but clearly they didn't want Punk to get over, meanwhile Rollins is a protege of HHH from back in his NXT days. This one was as obvious as it could get.

The women's match was the only risk, if only because it's pretty obvious they want to make her a 16 time champion at some point like her father. (Nevermind the fact that there's several reigns the WWE doesn't count, but that's irrelevant). But yeah it was unlikely, and taking "The field" instead of 1 wrestler in particular made it an easier position to take.

All in all, easy money.
