Sportsmemo hits a 20,000 to 1 Losing Streak Yesterday for a 55% Capper

[QUOTE=jefff;34597]Um...but how are the guys at sportsmemo going to make money if they only sell for 1 or maybe 2 sports? if you have 10 cappers capping all sports, then someone is BOUND to be doing well at something. and that's what you push. alatex is winning! put them on the front page! helmut is winning at totals. emphasize that! (forget making it easy to find his record on sides for 2010) Sportsmemo may have good guys there but they are still touts above anything and the guys that run the place, while making it easy to find yesterdays plays, make it very difficult to find records for any tout for any sport. the only thing easily accessible is the good info....the rest is shoved under the covers[/QUOTE] BINGO! That's the model for a lot of (t)outfits. That's the way I would do it.
Not quote that big of a longshot since they often have a few of the same plays, so big up or down days for the group is more likely. For Computer Bob.. I don't know if you have this breakdwon, but I was wondering what percentage of underdogs Trushel has played in football this season and what % of favorites for Robbie Veno. Every week on the recap page it seems Trushel is all dogs, Veno all favorites.

Some ambiguity with Trushel since he has played a few 6 pt teasers, some with favs, some dogs, some mixed. Trushel has almost the exact inverse dog/fav ratio from Veno. Trushel: 100 Dogs, 6 Pk, 33 Favs, 11 totals, Dog/Fav ratio: 3.33 Veno : 21 Dogs, 1 Pk, 60 Favs, 130 totals, Dog/Fav ratio: 0.35
Thanks CompBob. Good to know I wasn't going crazy.

I don't give a crap WHO YOU ARE: No handicapper is going to WIN at every sport, period! Golf, WNBA, NFL, NBA, MLB,NASCAR,CFB,CBB,ect,al. I say -just quit bullshitting people. If you went to that site Saturday and read "BEST BETS" you would swear Tim was one FIRE.Not so fast, Amigo! I swear to god I heard this out of Tim's mouth once, and it posioned my taste for them ever since: SportsMemo is a MARKETING site. We market plays, and sell them. Based on the results the last 2-3 months - you need a new marketing director, because this one is in the toilet. you have 10 cappers capping all sports, then someone is BOUND to be doing well at something. and that's what you push. alatex is winning! put them on the front page! helmut is winning at totals. emphasize that!

Yeah, we know that already. I mean, I say stuff to show off how smart I am all the time, so I totally get it, but if I tone down the hyperbole when I post, can you do the same?

Cater to squares, have a bunch of cappers with several different columns (NBA sides, totals, NCAA sides, totals, etc...) pump whatever is hot, steal 1/2 points or 5 cents in juice on as many releases as you can, sell dreams and pie-in-the-sky runs and profits, market effectively and call like crazy if you got a list.
