I said I followed you in 2009 but you hit 53% so I did not continue in 2010 but i obviously see your stuff each week.
I am a member of this forum because I wanted Fez's picks (which I believed to be solid winners before signing up) and all the info that he has to bring 2 the table.... i have remained a member because i still think that, for whatever reason, despite not winning for 2 years now that ive seen w my own two eyes, fez does move the market and I want to know why stuff moved. do I play everyone one of fez's plays now? no, I've stopped doing that. I will wait till he shows his picks win and deserve my money again. Till then i will hope he turns things around, but like u and everyone, we've heard excuse after excuse "now it starts", "focus is only on nfl", "i have the best and brightest in my corner" etc and we are where we are, so i will wait and hope but my money will go towards others picks who are winning. i wait and hope he starts sharing a glimpse of logic or reason behind plays....
As for your statement that your record is out there for everyone to see, please, show me where. The sports monitor saying you are XX and ZZ? UMMMM...... OK. Sharp actually posted his stuff for free on forums for several years. I saw he won with my own 2 eyes. He started selling, i joined. for whatever reason he stopped using the sports monitor and started posting every single play he gives out minutes after the kickoff like RAS. is this a good thing....... hell yes! I don't want my handicpaper to hide behind a veil of telling me to trust that he is 30-20 on th eyear or that of someone like a "monitor", we all know how upstanding they and the industry is.
I'm not saying ur record is not accurate, again, all I can attest to is your 53% in 2009. But I have seen a lot of your stuff this year (though i don't pay, i will admit) and it is very good.
BTW.... posting your picks after kickoff is not a "decent idea"... its the only way to do business IMO. I've learned after being with many different touts for many different years. Love him or hate him.... ras set the standard for this.... win or lose, don't be scared of posting your play.... i find it hard to believe you are "too busy" .... if u are in the book, hire a friend to do it.... surely you make enough via selling plays and all your winning bets to compensate someone that small amount. As a client who gives $$$ to touts in exchange for picks.... i hate someone who does not share anything w/ me.
Wunderdog does not do this, but at least he posts plays and writeups each week and accounts for losing weeks on his site... this is honorable..... You do neither.... You let a monitor distribute a tally, not the plays, just a w-l record.... This is why i respect guys like ras and sharp, who actually share their play after kick. at least wunderdog posts picks and writeups publicly afterword, which is a big step better than people who do neither.
