This fat piece of Jenks sucks soo bad why the f...n does that retard coach put him in for 1and a third no less!!!!! -
lol, we turned this thread into a soap opera! That was a hell of a comeback by the Rays today, congrats on hitting that one, bookiekilla. I didn't play that game, but I always seem to be on the other side of those (or maybe I just remember those more!!).
best of luck to everyone for the remainder of today! :thumbs:Leave a comment:

Y'all need to chill out!! Stif is talking about me!!!!! Since I keep taking breaks all the time in all sports and then coming back for more!
Just kidding...i hope:hide:
no but sersiously, i don't think stif would talk about any of us long time posters like this ever...he's one of the best here in sniffing out the bs posters..
I can see both point of views here...I can see what stif is talking about, and I know he wouldn't bad mouth longtime members here, if they're on the up and up....I can also see hackman and ncsucharlies point of view about just b/c you don't post regularly doesn't mean you're trying to hide losses, etc...
ok, i'm done here...just wanted to hopefully lighten the mood a little...
and one more thing..i haven't read every line of every response to this thread, but I think i read enough to get the basic jist of it...
and plus, i'm in a great mood...I don't know what I did right to get that big comeback win for tampa bay today..it was my biggest play this year, and I thought I had lost it after like 3 innings...just checked a little while back and they fckn pulled it out...so i'm feeling pretty good about that now...ok seriously, i'm done now...gl on the rest of your plays stif and everyone else! :beerbang:Leave a comment:

As a new poster here I also feel compelled to reply... not because I felt insulted or singled out... but just to set the record straight. I have never posted on this forum (or any other forum) under a different name. I just registered for the first time ever this past week. I lurked ahwhile unregistered and it seemed like a pretty reasonable place to share your thoughts. Plus I wanted to see if I could handle making picks public and tracking them and if that would affect my analysis.
I will also point out that I too am a "real life" poster. If I don't get my picks posted before I leave for work... then I often don't get home until a half hour before the first early games... if that early. Thus my picks may come in right before those early games start... giving the impression that I'm just waiting to see what others are doing before I post my picks. That's never the case. I put my picks in on the sportsbook... then come over here to post.... never the other way around.
That's not to say I'm not interested in other peoples analysis... I am and feel I can learn from their takes. Overall I find the discussion interesting and will be interested to see what happens as others come and go... and reappear.... :thumbs:Leave a comment:

Looks like Seattle is going down. Maybe I should have gone with my instinct instead of the stats and facts, lol

Yea, i know....I was gonna take the A's today too just because of the huge price, but got tired of losing with crappy teams like them. It seems like as soon a I lay off is always when they pull one out as a gigantic underdog. But seriously, I couldn't have even made an argument today that the A's had any type of advantage today or a real legitimate shot of winning, so I had to lay off. What are ya gonna do? At least I wasn't on the Yanks at -330. Ouch, lol
So anyway, I'm calmed down now, lol. I didn't post any of that stuff for sympathy, or whatever, but if anyone had the image of me of some posting machine that just sat at the computer all day and did nothing but sports, that's incorrect and i wanted to dispel that. I'm just a regular guy like everyone else here who loves sports, gambling on sports and the rush you can get from it, and has some free time on his hands in the afternoons and sometimes on the weekends that I choose to spend handicapping.
So I did make 5 more plays for tonight, but I have no time for any type of meaningful write ups. I'm sure I'll be posting tomorrow morning sometime since my girl works again and my daughter's friend is staying over (again), lol...

I got a lot more respect for you now, family is everything Stif:beerbang: and I never make a play without looking at what you did, saying that I hope you post early tomorrow too since I have a 1pm flight to DC:laughing: and I hope you never stop posting cause I think a lot of people would be dissapointed, you have a lot of relevant **** to say IMHO.Last edited by gsad; 07-25-2009, 02:34 PM.Leave a comment:

yeah Stif, I didn't mean to rile you up either. Like I said it looks like it was just unfortunate timing, with me just starting to post again this week. I'm sorry there was a mix up in the communication. Keep posting your plays dude, I think a lot of people actually read your posts since you take the time to also post your reasoning behind your picks as well.
Good luck to you today, sir. :beerbang:Leave a comment:

Hey, like I said, I definitely meant none of what I said towards you. You've been posting since back at UC, and hell, you're one of the most under the radar guys....never doing stupid **** to try and draw attention to yourself when you're winning and what not.Thanks for the clarification......I know what you mean by the ones that drop in are the worlds greatest, then drop out.......
Even when I lurk, I run into your thread to see what plays would be good to look at, whether I have cash in account or not...I respect your picks and plays as well.
I guess the timing of me getting back in, and then hitting an ungodly hot streak $100 to $750 in a week or so, I took offensive. Cause sure as **** I will hit the cold streak and be broke by next week.
Sorry for the bash back, but I do have a Pregnant wife keeping me a lil on edge...
GL TODAY...
I was completely shocked that you took offense to what I said, even though I can see how the timing might have matched up, because I don't think there is a poster here that would say anything bad about you or how you conduct yourself when you're here.
I'm glad you're doing well lately, and I hope you keep on winningLeave a comment:

I guess I will also add this, since I'm not sure how you meant it Hackman, that I too have a "normal" every day life, and am not just a posting machine who sits behind a computer all day long.
I have one child who is 10 from a former relationship, whom I, as her father, have full custody of (and receive NO SUPPORT from her mother, nor do i want any)....and I too have a baby on the way as well, due in early December.
And to be blunt about it, i am paying 2 mortgages and a ton of bills right now while my old house from the former relationship is listed on this great real estate market right now and not selling, along with a ton of other debts accumulated from that relationship, which i allowed her to walk scot free financially from because I just wanted full time custody of my daughter, which I got.
Then obviously there are the bills from my new house, etc.
I'm not loaded either, but I guess luckily for me my income did increase pretty nicely at just the right time to cover all these bills temporarily, and my new girl has a good job as well, so I'm able to pay all these bills, and I had enough stashed away in my sportsbook accounts when all of this went down that I could continue to play....even though it's getting a little slim right now with the current losing streak combined with the ****ty basketball season I had. Cause I certainly don't have enough disposable cash to make any sportsbook deposits right this minute either.
Sports and gambling on them is quite honestly a way for me to sometimes forget about my other troubles, and pass the time when I don't have anything real exciting or urgent to do, like right now with my girl at work and my daughter having a friend from school over, and me having basically nothing to do other than stare at the wall, look at internet porn, or watch re-runs of the Golden Girls.
Just in case anyone was wondering.Last edited by Stifler's Mom; 07-25-2009, 01:37 PM.Leave a comment:

[QUOTE=Hackman;205551]I take exception to that quote as well. I started the season cold and lost out all cash in my account. With a pregnant wife,owning a business, and GREAT OBAMA economy turnaround, I have had more important things to spend my hard earned $$ on gambling. Got a nice $100 bill for my 40th birthday this month, deposited it in sportsbook, started playing games again AND POSTING..
Sorry I have a life and can't live in your daily posting world. I have always dropped in and out of posting, but lurk alot (usually wishing I had the disposable income to play).
Assuming others just post on HOT streaks is understandable, but so is assuming people have lives and don't live in the forum world... With a business to run, kids, pregnant wife, and bill paying, I bet when I get some dough in the aco****, and post at the same times......
Sorry for taking the time to drop back by and share in what should be the best forum on the internet..(and is)... good to see the moderator is so postive to people adding to the forum.
GL WITH YOUR PLAYS TODAY , AND I GUESS EVERYDAY, since you have all the time in the world to post.....[/QUO
