Information. Help each other. In particular, for the novice but serious bettor. Truth be told many posters on here are full of crap. Trying to impress the world with their extravagant, ridiculous bets that they probably never made to be begin with. Read between the lines, there is thought required. I'm an old school bettor and often am insulted by immature, poorly thought out words. But this is an open forum and in this day and age whoever is hiding behind their computer is a mystery, we don't really know who they are. How long have they been around, someone new could have alot to offer, in 2003 I was new on this site but not to the world of sports betting. I've been intermittently driven away from this site, sadly, because of the lack of seriousness I sense. Novice bettors, don't arbitrarily tail someone, myself included. Find those posts which are serious, do your own research and make your OWN decisions. Use money management and dont chase losses praying for that big win. Keep your plays consistent, I cant tell how many times my big play lost while my other plays won. Never bet so much that if you lose you want to kick everyones ass, including your ol lady. And just because you won today is no guarantee you will win tomorrow, thoughts like that will humble you quickly. Be conservative if you want to win and be around next year to share your thoughts. Remember, you will lose, everyone does, the name if the game is to win more than you lose. If you're new to the game, thats ok, you should be reading not writing, unless its a question. Respect this world as you respect your own job, your family. Otherwise, do something else that you enjoy, there are plenty of fly by nighters in here already. Find those handful of people who genuinely have something to offer, there aren't that many but enough to keep this old timer coming back. I hope this helps some of you out there, you have an advantage now that I didn't have, I learned by losing, but learning at the same time. Be respectful, humble and thorough and not only can you enjoy sports betting, you may even put a couple of dollars in your pocket. Best of luck to you!

Good info mrusso ... Will only help the ones that have their head screwed on right ... Many Morons on this site ... But at the same time, there are many, many more good hearted people, willing to help others ... These are the people you want to stick to ...

Great read mrusso Those are some great points you pointed out especially the plays you smash and next thing you know you get smashed for trying to win big and there is no one to blame but yourself for losing big .There are some great cappers here and at times people look to them as saviors and then if they lose look out garbage hits the fan and next thing you know they stop posting.Today was a crazy day with some messed up endings lol.

Choke on a "person". Then while choking on said "person", trip on another "person" and fall back asswards onto another "person". A real throbber.
Is that immature and poorly thought out enough for ya?
Guys like you who start threads like this are so much worse than the general riff raff you speak of. It's the mods' job to speak to the proper use of this website, not yours. Don't preach to us.

Thanks for the reminder. There was a point this season where I was just not enjoying football anymore and was making some really stupid plays. I've been treating my cash like chips at a casino after a few drinks. For the folks I follow, this has been a great community.
Good luck rest of season

I appreciate your comments and concerns. Money management is the number one key to success, no doubt.
Regarding driving you out of here at one point. I see this here all the time. I must admit, that I have been guilty of pushing on someone on more than one occasion.
I now limit that to only the braggadocious ones that add nothing to the forum except "LOOK AT ME" threads. Bet the house, thank me later, that kind of stuff. They take a stab at a pick, and when it wins they come back for the adulation. When it loses, crickets.
This place has lost tons of great cappers, it's sad.
Thanks for taking the time to reflect on what this place should be,
and make me think more about my actions going forward.

Check out the guys I hear on the radio here in San Diego, they give picks for FREE via text message: You Just Text NFL to 545454 You Will Get Their Monday Night Football Game of the Year ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!!! Just Text NFL to 545454 I Already Texted And Got My Play For FREE!!!!
Their whole shtick is a front for a pedophile ring and if you pay for picks, the money goes to the cartels. I recall reading a story the last time I was in San Diego about these guys and underaged, illegal, Mexican children. DO NOT TEXT THESE GUYS. You don't want to be associated with their group.
