Been here a long time and don't post much as you can see by my join date and post count. I don't know what I am doing as far as capping goes so I follow a select few of the guys I consider good/legit. If I win, great. If I lose, I don't blame whoever I followed. This is just a hobby for me, unfortunately an expensive one since I always seem to lose much more than I win.
In my opinion, Thunder is really a good guy who just wants to help others out in picking winners. If you take away the % of bankroll and just applied a basic rating system I think most would be appeased. Even if you used $100 per rating. A number that most of us couldn't bet, but who cares? A 6% play thus becomes $660 to win $600. At the end of the day it would be easier for all who cared to add up the winners and losers including the juice and whether or not points were bought and have a simple +/- on the day. That's what I do with his plays.
I appreciate that he takes the time to give out his plays each day. I don't think he has ever gone looking for trouble, an arguement, or deliberately tried to deceive anyone. He has shared some glimpses of what kind of guy he really is if you guys paid attention over the years.
There are plenty of guys here who don't keep track of their records and never seem to run out of money, but never get as much scrutiny as what Thunder has gotten the past few days.

I posted a fact that the guy was down like 30-40% of his bankroll in the last 4-5 days and it disappeared. I'm new here, are posting facts against the rules? Not bashing the guy, I'm down 20% over the same time frame with being selective (ie not playing every 1h, 2h, side, and total in every game).

Nothing disappeared;

But, there is no bashing in the handicapping forums.

What's a 'prophit'?

Isn't it bad enough that someone felt it was necessary to post a new friggin thread just so people could bitch about another poster because his Freedom of choice was put to paper per se, and not all were right or wrong, but now we have to have five pages about the fuckin guy.


Thunder is an asset to this board, period! So is Raymond, Woodson, BBC, Kosar, lawtchan, so were many others that have come and gone. All have faults and favors and all will fuck the hell out of you if you spend your time agonizing over someone else's opinion. For fucks sake, ppabart posts his plays all the time but there is no thread about him. Nobody gives a rats ass if yyz feels they are in the wrong just like nobody gives two shits when Agent says he is coming to any get together. What the fuck do you people do for fun??? Holy shit do you sit around and wait for some poor bastard waiting for his mom to pass out on the floor so he can post Duke in a runaway and you can come into the thread and attack the prick? I posted the same shit and it was my opinion so it was absolutely correct as it applies to me, the sooner you useless bastards figure that out you will quit following Sponge and have a much more fulfilling life. Then again, you could go kill yourself too. Won't make a damn difference to how this board operates, trust me on that. Do you really think that we need any one of you here more than the other? If so you're a fucking idiot.

Thunder, Ray, ppabart and all the other cappers that post their plays, even the ones like me that suck.........I say thank you for your invaluable contribution to this board. Unfortunately it is rich with jealousy, and judicial know it all's, but there are those that appreciate this board for what it is. If someone paid for your picks then that is on them. GL


Hope that helps.........................friggin idiots,
FDC

Well, you go ahead an enlighten us poor fucking idiots as to how two guys who pick 50% winners and 50% losers are an asset to this board?

I know a lot of you dopes want to keep pounding sand up my ass about how you're making money off of their plays, but it is pure BULLSHIT.


Now, why you would get mad at me for questioning why five guys all chime in with, "thanks for the winners", when a guy goes 9-9 is beyond me.


Thunder makes nice posts. He isn't mean. He seems to "mean well'. That being said: He aint getting anyone's wallet fat. Ray either.

These are not "words of a jealous man". Look back and do the fucking math.

Well then push away from the Cheet-o's and listen up. They are an asset because not everyone blindly follows someone they have never met, takes their "supposed" word on a game, invest their money on said game, and then bitch about it when it falls through douchebag. I explained all of this in the full post but as usual you picked out only what your obviously dependent thought process could wrap itself around. Like I said, and you proved my point beautifully thank you, you will still continue to bitch about someone not giving you free cupcakes and the board will still move on and you will be disregarded as usual. It's simple math really. Two negatives make a positive and you make an ass out of yourself. Tralalalalala..........

Get it?

Good........


Hope that helped,

If Raymond picked 50% winners he wouldnt be an asset to the forum. He is usually around 35-38% and that makes him a huge asset to me :mj07:. FDC just because someone is your friend doesnt mean they are a great handicapper. Maybe you should get your facts straight before you comment like you know it all.

He'd be one quiet motherfucker, and he LOVES the sound of his voice too much.

He's also one of those tools around here who has the mirrors on the INSIDE of his sunglasses.

No, because you are still doing a pretty shitty job of explaining anything, actually. In this post, or that other hate-filled hunk of shit you wrote.

But, it's okay. Funny, actually. All the while you want to preach to me and others about how we have no life, and bitch about this and that, and here you always come, jacked to the hilt with your own version of the same dance steps. 'Cept you aim it at "us", while we aim it at piss poor handicappers and their lemmings.

Because those 2 guys generate a lot of traffic, which generates revenue for jack, which allows him to keep this message board open, which allows whiny ass bitches like you who complain about every facet of their miserable existences a forum to spread their unhappiness.

Capisce?

First let me say that I haven't read this complete thread, but do have an idea what it is about.

So fwiw in my opinion, since this is a gambling forum first & foremost, people who post their picks, win or lose are assets for this forum....& people who constantly stalk other posters are liabilities for this forum....& as somebody who does post picks for football, I like to see people come into my threads to wish me luck. This tells me that at least somebody has read what I have posted.

yyz did complain about too much pepper on his steak in Vegas one time, and not winning at the
nickel slots. I think he lost 10 bucks.
