I love your NC St. and Houston selections. I am on them myself. How come you never post the lines you get? If you are going to post your plays, why would you omit the spread? Just curious. I assume you are posting your plays to help others on the site, so giving the spread would make sense. Good luck!

1. I dont give a shit about your opinion. Just stay out of my threads.

You somehow think it is ok for you to post in my threads? You somehow think it is ok for you to come into my threads and make personal attacks against me? You have an odd way of thinking. I did not come into your thread making personal attacks and I even wished you luck.

2. Because my guess is anyone reading this thread or "needing help" knows the damn lines. It isnt top secret stuff.

I don't think so.


Good luck with your plays and I will not comment on them further!

With the possible exception of Clemson (sure, I may be swept up in the A&M hype, but I don't believe in Clemson AT ALL), I like all your sides.

With the exception of Georgia/BSU, I think the lines move in your favor as we get closer to kickoff. I am curious as to which games you haven't bet and are waiting for line movements?

this much i can assure you -- sun certainly is sharp enough to get the best value on the games he plays, but far more often than not, the lines end up being inconsequential. him not posting a line is just his style. those that follow know he wins a helluva lot more than he loses. of course posting a line matters if youre having a contest or something. but the guy knows his stuff in the big12 and, while im sure he appreciates props and his hard work getting noticed just like anyone else, at the end of the day, he doesnt care about impressing anyone or banging his chest and making a big deal out of a winning day or week.

At the same time I think its great when people ask questions around here and post write-ups instead of taking picks and running to their bookie without hesitation. Sun mentioned that he isn't about to write 8 pages worth of b.s. to make people think he's right which makes sense; but at the same time, why not explain reasons for your picks (just as he did)! I'm definitely gonna take a close look at Clemson based on his little writeup while I may have simply overlooked it if all I saw was his selection. It helps me and it helps everyone else when he shares his wisdom about the Big 12.

Reason I like this board is that many will post explanations. . . I have never been one to blindly follow another just because they're on a roll or they are supposed to be a great capper. I like to take my knowledge of capping (whatever that may be) and apply it towards other angles that I haven't considered. Its a win-win situation around here :clap:

Not posting a line is BS. The idea is to beat the spread. How can you beat the spread if there is no line? :rolleyes:

Let me try again -Scott stay out. I dont want you in my threads. I dont care what you think. As best as I can tell no one else cares much what you think either, especially about me. If you dont like my posts or how I post that is just dandy - even more reason for you not to read and stay out. While it in some respects concerns me that the entire gambling world doesnt know the spread on games unless and until I post it, I think it is simply a burden I may have to live with.

But you think you have the right to post in my threads? :rolleyes: I did not know you get so easily offended when asked a simple question. :rolleyes: BTW, I was replying to gman2.

I am not in your threads. I am not offended because you arent worth it. Your opinion is entirely inconsequentil yet cluttering my thread for those that actually might care about what I think. I just dont give a shit about you or your backhanded attacks while trying to proclaim innocence. Somehow I think you have plenty of other places to spout your drivel.

:liar:

In my thread where I posted my week 1 plays, this is what you posted.

Gman,

Because he knows more than you of course. You really are slipping man.

By the way did my email satisfactorily answer your questions?

Here is the link to the thread to refresh your memory!

:nooo: :nooo: :nooo:

Need more examples?

Good luck on your plays and I will stay out of your thread provided you do not comment on me.

Actually, the more I think about it, what is the use. You are bound and determined to make this site all about you. With you there is no comradery. With you there is no joy in coming here and trying to help folks win. Maybe the benefit isnt worth the aggravation you are determined to provide.

There are a few folks to whom I used to email plays. Maybe I just need to go back to that route.

Don't sweat him, Sun. Continue posting your plays and place little Scottie on IGNORE. We can definitely use your BIG12 input.

Sun, don't punish the board because you are affected by one member. . . simply ignore Scott's posts if they bother you that much. . . what's the big deal?

Either way, good luck if you choose to run away. . . the site will survive as it always has.

sun tzu, those of us here who know the difference between a good handicapper and a lot of hot air really respect your work, particularly in the big 12. please continue to post your picks in whatever manner you see fit.
