Fez's posted record

[QUOTE=KimLee;13314]GMAFB. You made money by playing a lucky subset of the picks, not because the picks had value. It is no consolation to members who lost. Anthony wanted a high-quality discussion forum, not a picks site. Then Fezzik continued to post picks with weights. Fezzik gave Dreamer a comped membership to compile the picks, and Dreamer found a negative record. Anthony and Fezzik are experienced with this. They should have stayed ahead of the curve and kept a record. It would have saved Fezzik the embarrassment of mistakenly claiming a winning record. Also, contest selections are not picks because the numbers are unavailable and because tournament strategy is different from cash strategy. I remember when Ken White won the Barley's contest while releasing some opposite picks to VegasInsider subscribers. Stephen Nover wrote a deceptive story that indicated otherwise. LVASports should avoid any resemblance.[/QUOTE] It official, the world is ending soon because I agree 100% with everything Kim Lee wrote. I am done with this, lets move on. D.
Fezz- just think, if you weren't around, the 5 active members over at RTP would have nothing to talk about. "People LOVE to HATE a winner". I think that's why these jokers are so consumed in trying to find fault in your success. This site isn't just about Fezz's picks. Speaking of picks, how about Shooters college hoops, Lenny's 1st half bets, Old School and his friends? KO, Charlie J, Helmut, The Dude and Lee Sterling, all chiming in with good info? Plus great gambling and betting insight in general. For $25 a month you can get that, or for FREE, you can go over to RTP and view the Heim arguing with Gary Greene- your choice.

People use this site for different reasons. Some people only want to follow picks by Fezz, whether it is every pick or just some of picks, perhaps Old School's picks, etc. For me I could care less about the picks. I do my own handicapping. I'm looking to learn something from people on this board. If I followed Fezz and he dies tomorrow, how does that help me in the future? I'm always looking to learn for the future. I've never followed someone I couldn't learn something from. Bottom line is who cares what his record is? At the end of the day people will decide to keep their subscription because they find value with this site or they won't. The subscribers of this site will determine if the $25/month is worth it or not. And everybody will see value in a different way.

Big deal - over a small number of plays, Fezzik hit a rough spot. I believe Fezz is a better shopper, exotic (quarters, etc) player than straight up football point spreads. Anyone who bets a significant amount or works with others (I believe Fezz does both) has virtually no chance of hitting 54% after making his bets vs WA lines. Lines have gotten much tighter over the years. Virtually no one is going to hit 54% over 100+ football picks placed Wednesday night or later in the week. It's easy to win on Sunday night. It's easy to win on bets played before lines move. Virtually impossible to win on posted plays after lines move or on just the ones that dont move (as those are not as good bets...) I will be very surprised to see Fezz or others hit 54% vs WA lines in NFL going forward. Also have my doubts on CFB sides.
like the last two posters, I don't think the record is a big deal in itself either. What I find apalling though --- is the demand to count the Hilton picks. That is not only laughable but insulting to all you subscribers out there.
I just deleted a post by Weighing the Odds, because it's referencing a fight that's going on at SSB. This is not SSB. Anyone who wants to get involved can go there and do so. I didn't intend to pull this thread, but if it becomes any more of a distraction, I will.
Anthony, please delete my membership. Thanks.
Anthony, you do understand that this all started because Fezz went to SSB, told them they couldn't win, and that they should be hitting 55% like he was at his site, right?
Then deal with it there, not here. How many times must I say it?
