LIKE: Duke OV, Butler+pts, Fla St Under, SDSt ml, Ohio St-pts
LEANS: Richmd +pts, Ariz +pts, Wisc Under, Fla St -pts
*jimmer's the real deal and his mates can shoot
*San Diego's big guys can run, luv transition game, lottsa pts
*Marq impressed me last nite
*think (hope) Ky/OhioSt will be fast paced

really think SDSU shows UConn what team basketball looks like and makes everyone talk about how "oh, kemba must've been tired after a great run"
hate the 4 number on butler/wisky. if it's not tied at the last possession, whoever's up covers that 4. and i tend to think wisconsin will be the one that's up. wish butler was getting the 7 that kenpom has this one at cause i'd take it. even take 5.5. gonna watch the line and $ on this one.
florida sucks. byu wins this game and there won't be much to talk about. give me the +128 ML! would lean over since florida doesn't play any D and won't be able to handle BYU anyways, but probably won't touch it at 149.
didn't like the end to the Duke/Mich game, think Duke got lazy and underestimated Michigan's will+ability to win. i had washington knocking out UNC and arizona knocking out texas. washington got sloppy. arizona did what it had to do against a great defense but that's about all texas is. i think duke wins in the end; just think they're better, but not sure about the 9 number.
i'm really looking at that +160 on VCU. think it'll be a great game and those guys have beaten two good teams, hobbled, slumped or whatever. thought FSU could hold ND down and possibly win but that blowout was, i think, an outlier in the possible ways that matchup goes.
richmond's good and i don't know if they'll drop their heads like illinois did if KU makes a run toward the end. they can control the pace and defend the 3, as can kansas. really like the points and the under here.
ohio state's better. period. think they force the young UK into a bunch of turnovers and just pulls away. if unc plays em, i think ohio state could embarrass them.
to UNC, considering washington gave them the game and they shouldn't be here... don't think marquette plays 3 good ones in a row, unfortunately. they have a shot to cover if they can do what they did to 'cuse, which would be nice for the under. if marquette can control the pace at all and prevent some fast breaks, it'll come under because this number is too high and neither team shoots FTs well, or the 3 really.
:bigun: BYU+2' +128
lean wisky-4, would buy -3.5 if it doesn't move, but gonna watch the line and $.
SDSU+1 big
VCU+4 +160
Richmond +10'
ohio state -5 over140

THANX- NOT GOING TO GET IN PISSN MATCH WITH YOU BUT MY NUMBERS ARE A LITTLE DIFFERENT- EITHER WAY LAST FEW WEEKS HAVE BEEN VERY PROFITABLE-SO THANK YOU
Love Florida. Revenge game from last years tournament and Florida is a much better all around team than BYU. Yes I know Jimmer will get his, but Florida should destroy them inside.
You must have a lot of time on your hands to go back and total up all of his picks. Are you getting paid to be his book keeper or is this pro bono work? Who else did you total up all of their picks? :0074
If he started from day one of the tournament and only did Thunder's I don't believe it would be that time consuming of a chore. He's only charting one guy. I'm guessing a lot of the people on here including THUNDER do a lot more time consuming stats figuring out the games. Just an opinion. :0008
Nothing wrong with wondering how a fellow capper is doing before you "follow" them. Why do you see this is a problem? You'd rather just follow based on reputation?
FIRST OFF HES IN NOT ACCURATE- SECONDLY EXAMPLE VIG AND ML PLAYS- IF HIS GOAL WAS FIGUREING OUT HOW I DO HE CAN FIGURE IT OUT WITHOUT GOING INTO MY THREAD ON HIS OWN WHY GO INTO MY THREAD- THIRDLY REPUTATION ALONE -HOW IS THAT BUILT THRU TIME AND WINNING VERY DIFF TO DO IN THIS BIZ- -FOURTH FOR 10 YEARS I KEPT RECORDS IN HERE - ID SAY I WAS UP 270% FOR THE YEAR- A COUPLE IDIOTS WOULD COME IN AND SAY OH YOUR ONLY UP 222% BECAUSE OF THIS OR THAT - THERE WRONG BECAUSE OF VIG OR NOT COUNTING ML PLAYS OR THEM JUST PLAIN SCREWING UP BECAME TO MUCH MAITENANCE- - PRO KNOWS EXACTLY WHO IM IN HERE- ALONG WITH A FEW OTHERS-:shrug: LAST I CHECKED I WIN EVERY SPORT EVERY YEAR- AND DOING IT THRU VOLUME- NOT EASY FOR MOST TO DO- -BUT I DO- WHAT IF I WOULD OF LOST THIS LAST WEEKEND I GUESS PEOPLE SHOULD NOT CHECK THE PLAYS- VERY FUNNY- I DO NOT POLICE ANY ONE THREAD OR THERE RECORDS- BECAUSE TO BE UPFRONT-WHY SHOULD I -THER ARE ONLY A COUPLE GUYS ON HERE THAT I CONSIDER SHARP AND THERE OLD TIMERS- -I AM NOT SAYING ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT ANYBODY- BUT I MIND MY OWN BUSINESS- BY THE WAY I WOULD FOLLOW A CAPPER I KNEW WAS SHARP AND HAD A LONG WINNING HISTORY THAN A TOUT AND THERE ARE FEW OF THEM THAT SAY HUGE PLAY OR WHATEVER - I HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS COME AND GO- ON HERE AND IN THE BIZ-MAYBE I SHOULD START MY THREADS SINCE IM HOT- OR HUGE PLAY -OR WHATEVER- THIS IS TAKING UP TIME AGAIN BUT I FOUND THE POST LAME-AND UNCALLED FOR-:0003
Everything you say is true, but I think the guy was just trying to be nice and informative, but I could be as wrong as his stats may be. :shrug:
Ummmm.....why are you directing all this fire at me? My post wasnt directed at you in the least, THUNDER. My post was clearly directed towards jhawk. So why the hell do you come at me like that???
In fact, the more I reread this....the more I don't understand. Why are you pissed at what I said? Again, it wasn't directed at you, at all.
I KNOW WHO IT WAS DIRECTED AT- ITS IN MY THREAD- BUT IT REFERS TO ME- AND I WAS RESPONDING IM THE ONE HE CALCULATED THE RECORD ON IN MY THREAD AND IM THE CAPPER WITH THE REPUTATION- AND I STATED WHAT I SAID. IT JUST WAS UNCALLED FOR ON HIS PART- AND NOT EVEN ACCURATE- JUST TACKY-
I followed Thunder's first weekend plays. I missed a few.
My book-keeping:
I have a lot more in my account than I did before round 1 started.
Thanks a bunch, Thunder.
