Fezzik Week 14, BEARS 3 weight+3+100

don't let the door hit you on the way out skutch. whine.whine whine. Rickj can't handicap huh? we'll miss ya.

I would cancel my membership too after that game....... I'm the guy who has been preaching about how difficult it is to win vs. W.A. NFL lines. Unlike almost every guy out there, I could Yosh away and start firing in lots of picks, tell you all was great, and I was confident I would win vs. these lines.... But the truth is my edge is very slim on the widely available plays. When I DO post a play early in the week, my betting friends privately rip me for 'killing the market'. The GB 'over' (recommended by 2 of my 'experts' was atrocious), and frankly I just don't think I need the deserved aggravation here going forward. I don't want to over react, but I think this site became a 2 person pick's site, and that was never my intention......so maybe this is all for the best...... I cannot imagine getting paid for putting up picks that flip coins for 3 months........ Will do my best to improve the rest of the year, but frankly I don't need the aggravation and the disappointemnt of costing people money. I LOVE the site, I HATE having to put picks up......will be talking to Anthony about a better capacity for me going forward....hopefully with a substantial reduction in my minor compensation. I'm being asked to pick winners vs.widely available lines in a market THAT I AM THE ONE WHO SAYS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE ANY CLEAR EDGE!!!! And the ridiculous thing about my Bears pick was 1. It totally followed NFL betting basic strategy 2. I know better than to take an idiot coach/questionable qb vs. the genius and Brady.

The site is fine. Post the picks that you like and be done with it. Nobody is forced to bet them. I would think that everyone here is a big boy and can make their own decisions on what they want to play. Even if picks are not posted, opinions and ideas are welcomed. The value of the site is the discussion and sharing of information and ideas. I would like to see more of that! Please don't clam up for fear of offending someone.

I personally bet Giants -3.5 -110 Pinny 4 weight This line HAS to inflate tomorrow......... I will likely scalp it back later, I would lay -3.5-110, but much riskier at -4-110

Ur not costing anyone money or putting a gun to anyones head to bet your games. Just because you posta play doesn't mean any paying customer has to play it. I hated your gb total and didn't play it. Loved the bears and played it. Such is life. Anyone willing to bitch should invest as much time as a professional and bet theri own plays instead of wishing for free money for 25 a month

The big difference is Alf posts his picks when the lines go up. Fezzik posts his mid week after they are hammered into shape. Alf is a consistent reliable handicapper who is very valuable, but he's not posting picks Sunday morning (or very rarely). Fezz does it almost every week. No one - I repeat No one will go 55% vs WA lines on the NFL over 500 games if posting during the weekend. Pinnacle and Cris take thousands of dollars on NFL openers. Why not just post them then!

[QUOTE=Fezzik;35152]This line HAS to inflate tomorrow......... I will likely scalp it back later, I would lay -3.5-110, but much riskier at -4-110[/QUOTE] is Pinny available to US members again?

[QUOTE=Fezzik;35150] 1. It totally followed NFL betting basic strategy.[/QUOTE] Perhaps this is the problem? Hard to win if you're thinking what everyone else is thinking. And Jefff - it is if you know the right people. ;)

Team off a blow out win vs a divisional opponent? Home dog against that team? Learn me here. Thanks

Hey Steve, I'm with Mofobes & Full Value...I for one think $25 for the opinions from you, Alf & others is $$ well spent. Many on this site offer opinions and they are just that, “OPINIONS”. I, like many others, value the forumn and never have I believed this site was a Steve Fezzik said it so I better take it site. Keep doing what you do for your far better than most at it. Barry
