A Couple Fezzik and Forum Thoughts

A Couple Fezzik and Forum Thoughts I know that there are those here in this forum that Live and Die off Steve's Plays. However, one must realize that these are his opinions and the bottom line is that what you play is totally up to you. He is an Icon in this Industry and I personally always consider his opinions on the NFL Games, and Futures. But that does not mean that I don't do my own homework. He has a unique way of playing the market and I for one have gained insight on how he does that. This is NOT a Picks Site new people. This is a Knowledge Site. Keep that in mind and you will benefit.

Fezzick won the Hilton SuperContest not once but TWICE! In consecutive years no less. That really says it all! No way that can be variance. Im sure someone who does that is a +even caper for years to come.

Not sure why you guys are all over Fezzik. The guy has gotten beyond crushed over the past 2 years. I have been here a long time and to be honest I dont remember many winning seasons by him. I know Anthony says this isnt a picks site yet I never see Fezzik contributing anything to the boards besides his picks. He will rarely even give any reasoning behind his picks. And to be honest if Fezzik wasnt giving out his plays this forum wouldnt exist because people wouldnt be paying the money to be here.

I came here for Fezzik's picks because he seems to have a long-term historical winning record against the NFL including 2 Super Contest winners. That sort of thing attracts people. I came here for his picks and i'm guessing a reasonable majority of guys came here for the same thing. If he actually stopped posting his picks, this website would die in a minute. Let me say, i'm still on board and honestly believe that he can post a nice record where we all profit. But to claim this Knowledge Site nonsense, then you probably don't get that there are many people on this site for his picks (if not a majority). I have no trouble admitting that - its pretty awful so far, but i'm still hanging tight. If Fezzik comes on here and claims "sorry guys, this is just a Knowledge Site", then I'll stand corrected.

Ha, Anthony will :)

I will catch heat for this, but I will say it. My results went downhill post my Hilton Wins, largely because I tried to 'multi-table' and actively handicap CFB and NFL. Throw in a newborn baby and I was a sleep derprivated Zombie. THIS YEAR, I focused ONLY on the NFL, and my work was solid. Frankly I just ran worse than humanely possible. My work was spot on, for the most part, I got the best of the line, and the ball just bounced badly. Scott Kellen (beST NFL capper I know), hit 34% ATS this year in the NFL. I anticipate a MOSTER GOOD NFL record going forward.............of course the naysayers would say I anticipated this to happen THIS YEAR, and I got crushed the last month. And they will talk about how fucking lucky I am getting the next 3 years when the nonsense ceases.

Who is leading the pack in the Hilton? Perceived sharps or squares? That's a benchmark I would use in analyzing who is winning right now.

Since then there's been a collective documented record of losing well over 100 units. If I get the gist of your post right, you seem to be explaining that away with "in the first few years I overworked myself and this year I've been unlucky." I don't see how it's possible for a true professional capper to go on a losing streak for that long and that much. You seem to be trying to make an effort to give an explanation, but it sure feels like you need to go a little deeper than that.

Every game can be watched between Sunday and then a couple hours of catchup on NFL Short Cuts. About 15 games to handicap that have already had a lookahead line up there from the week before. I think NFL is more of an idea or opinion game. Winners aren't necessarily putting in sick hours.

It's pretty clear from your post that you have been betting Fez Picks. The NFL Market is tougher than ever and I am not sure that it is beatable with volume. All ideas from quality NFL Handicappers helps one have a better chance. If Fez quit posting picks would this site die? Of course it would. Duh. I understand that there are those that follow blindly, you included, based on your post. Perhaps you would not if you were not so naive? One of the ways I use this site is with line moves or expected line moves when Fez makes a play. I also pick up tidbits from his post as to why he is playing a side/total. I guess the thought of using your own brain never crossed your brain. Moving forward, perhaps that would be wise to do..
