Quite true.

Hawk is a good friend of mine and one of the best total guys I have ever known. He shared all his info for free and got sick and tired of being stalked.

He certainly had a few words about it all when I spoke to him after he stopped posting here :scared

I have been following hawkeye and his thread for a couple of years wine guy is 100% correct about what he is claiming!

I'm with Wineguy as well. I was one of those stalkers that called out Hawkeye in the past. From 2016 to 2019 he posted a combined record of 588 - 484, good for a 54.9% winning percentage. However, he used to game his record using various tactics:

1. Count line movements after a pick is made but only if they went in his favor (he used to edit the original posts, now he at least acknowledges the line movement)
2. Picks made after kickoff (especially 2nd half picks)
3. Picks made with stale lines he'd claim he could get from a local but no one online was offering
4. Make vague references to games that weren't actually picks but he'd say was a pick IF it won
5. Make picks that have heavy juice (1st quarter team totals!!!) but he'd grade equal to all his other picks

If you account for all of that, his record was 547.75 - 534.25, good for 50.6%. Slightly above .500, but not enough to actual win money. If you're one of his cronies that actually thinks you could make money off his picks, you're only fooling yourself. He was an average capper, just like everyone else on this site. But at least he didn't use Thunder Math to say he'd be up 300% when he'd actually be bankrupt.

I have not tracked Hawkeye's record.

I really like that SteelCity uses "closing lines from socresandodds" to grade his plays.

But I object to impugning Hawkeye's integrity. He's a really good guy.

Enough already.

I hope you got your money back. :shrug:

redsfann, I have followed you and followed hawkeye for years and was just sick of the bullcrap records and perfect lines he got, when I was losing money on them. Glad he got off his chest what he needed to, and hell yes, I miss his opinions, but just be real when it comes to wanting great records and how many views you get. His records were in no way what his bank account would have shown, especially with juice. Hate me all you want for posting the truth. AGAIN, I BET HIS PLAYS like others that followed did. Ironic no one can go back on threads past 6 pages or so. IE fixed this for me last year and NCAA basketball went from 6 pages to 900, yet they are gone again. IE, can you fix again please for basketball and football? Go back and look. Anyone.

He is I am sure a "great guy" and he could not meet all of us in Denver last summer for whatever reason he had, and that is fine. I am sure most guys on here are good guys having a beer with, golfing with, hanging at a bar with, being in Vegas together with, but don't be a fake record keeper and line grabber when you know you post it and guys are following you, and they lose yet you always pick the exact line 100% that wins, especially in line movement, and don't post crappy VIG that you lose (i.e. -120, -130, etc. ). I posted the only two I can reference above AND HIS bullcrap comments,in BOLDFACE because can't go back further. Again, sorry for the crap, but truth is truth. Look at his spinning just those two, and how far off the winning/losing lines are. I am done and thanks again to those that admit it is real. Sure wish last 3 years of basketball would show up like IE did last year, but they disappeared again when he got sick, someone would have a heyday looking at it.

What are you insinuating? Nothing has changed. NOTHING! EVERY page is always available to go back and view.

About sick of your shit.

Maybe you were right about the settings not going back. I have no idea how settings could have changed unless my webhost changed them when they moved the site to a new server. As an admin I can see everything but I signed in under a test account and see what you mean.

But it wasn't a conspiracy to hide posts from you, I can assure you that. Go have your 'heyday'.

Jesus Jack never said it was my conspiracy, don't need a heyday. No, all is blocked going backwards. You call me out before you even know. You are sick of my shit yet it was a truth so ban me for that. You and I are pretty easy going and enjoy hanging out, my wife included, but if crap was costing you money and someone else said they were winning, I think you would feel similar. I suck at capping, so follow many others for action and fun. Would have brought it up man to man at outing but he last minute couldn't make it. Whatever, if an outing was in my city for 4 days I would find a way to meet the guys if a first timer. Yeah, yeah, wasn't paying for his posts....but he misrepresented what he really was doing and that in turn is what new guys that join site will see. "his great record?" No, not at all. I will just stop posting anything and never sign in, if that makes all happy, but I enjoy many guys but don't want to hurt your traffic. Like politics, the shadier you are the more you are liked. Please come back hawkeye, but be a truthful poster.

Whiney ass wineguy

Whiney ass wineguy

I have been reluctant to open my mouth but lets do it..


Wineguy you come across as a whiney bitch. Blaming someone else for your losses. Hawk has been posting here for ever. I remember you used to be on his dick. Talking wine and all that jazz. Then he hit a rough patch and you turned. Remember when you put the initials in to confirm the wager THEY ARE YOUR DAMN INITIALS. This is so tiresome.
Hawk will post a line and if that line moved he would post that the line moved and that was his bet. He did it before gametime and not after the game was over. You could easily have adjusted your bets. Its very possible, like many people do, I will put a bet in for 1/4 of my normal size and then finish capping or wait on movement and then I would add the rest. So that means I have added the most money at the new number.
You really ran off a guy who was posting plays for free because YOU could not understand what he was doing? Your whiney ass comes across as a degenerate and desperate for someone else to give you winners... Then you blame that person win they do not win..

You guys posted Hawk's record and said he was hitting at just 54.9% or some shit like that... You do realize that is damn near enough of a win percentage to not need to work. If you are able to get -105 lines then it is plenty enough to not work. Its laughable.


Such typical chatroom shit. Its good. You guys keep posting lists of plays without any reason to them, keep posting touts picks, and keep running off any talent that was here. You got guys acting like they are plugged in because they use Action Networks pro display which lets them see "Reverse Line Movement" and they come in here touting it like they are king shit.... Its cute. I know and you know when you all look in the mirror you all are down many many many thousands of dollars attempting to sports gamble. Hell some of you do not even know a teams nickname.


The talent you all have run off... you deserve each other...


NBL I hope you all figure it out

Just remember the name on the account is yours, the initials to confirm the wager are yours... Do not blame others because they get a better line or bet something different.

Peace out Jack- :0008:0008

When Hawkeye posts "adding (team name) & (line)"

Just disregard the line until his last post before gametime. And then use that line for record keeping purposes. It's pretty simple:shrug:


I hope Hawkeye returns, I always took his totals into account when placing a wager. I couldn't of cared less what his posted record was! His information was very useful!
