Trust YOURSELF

[spanky2]

Well it seems every year I spend a lot of time coming up with my 'plays', and then I get reading about this or that (everybody knew Couch was out, some teams don't play well in hot weather, Super Bowl winners don't cover alot,shit teams may be getting lack of respect or 'good' teams are over-priced,etc.etc.etc.
Dam, I know better than to listen to a bunch of HISTORY..
This is a NEW year with alot of teams featuring a 'new look'.
Anyway, enough about that. I have got to STOP reading about this or that ,as once again it cost me a winner I had planned on playing for 2 weeks.. NEW ENGLAND.. But,I'm mad at the only idiot to blame ,and that is ME,because I was FUCHING STUPID...
O.K. the rant is done... Hope you guys did fine this weekend.
You have to 'trust yourself' if you do your own 'handicapping' for your betting. If you simply 'borrow' others plays,well you may as well not bother..Go play Bingo or slot machines.
Last year I usually put my plays in on Wed. or Thur. so this shit did'nt happen AGAIN. But, human nature prevailed once again. I'll have to just write it off to more 'experience learned' (shit,I don't need anymore of this ) and move onward and upward.
So, Trust your OWN plays,and don't confuse yourself with too much information..
Good luck all SPANKY.............

Agree with you 100%. We need to trust ourselves and be confident with our own decision making. Countless times, I haven't made a play because of a certain piece of information or because one of the better handicappers was on the opposite side of the play, etc, etc. As you have stated, I only blame myself for this. Bet with confidence and trust your instincts.

Dragon, Yep, NOBODY to blame except the person you see in the mirror. It's amazing how we can 'screw up' isn't it ??
Oh well,such is life (I guess)..
Good luck this weekend...Spanky...

Good post Spanky,


Also always remember Ron Jaworski and Sean Salisbury are scum of the earth liars, every one who works for ESPN is a complete scumbag. Chris Mortenson knows absolutely nothing about football, he is a liar. Phil Simms is a punk. Pat HAden is a geek.

Bill Parcells needs to lose 100 lbs. Chris Berman has 3 chins and is a fat slob. NFL should ban all beer commercials.

Norv Turner is a great coach.

Come on, HHM. What's your problem? You have capping talent, but the venom in your posts is confusing. Why so hostile? Thought yours was a peaceful existence.

Jaworski and Salisbury scum of the earth? Huh? They do their job. Nobody ever said any of the reporters on ESPN were good cappers.

Mortensen is a good reporter. He gets a lot of good info.

Simms is a punk? Why even post that here? Tell it to the Super Bowl MVP's face.

Haden was a Rhodes Scholar, if I recall. If that's what constitutes a geek, so be it.

Why would you even care about the physical appearance of Berman and Parcells?

Ban beer commercials? It's a free country, not a prison.

He Hate Me, I gotta agree with Chucky.Bad commentators ,yes at a lot of the time, but hell, we all screw up. I still like Berman,he slides in some lines that go over many peoples' heads..Rumblin ,Bumblin ,Stumblin..
Unfortunately these guys,and loads of guys just posting stuff on boards ( eg. 95% chance of Thunderstorms for entire Carolina Game-so we think under,and you 'flip the illegal box' to the Panthers game and it's sunny and a beautiful fall day,ALL freekin day long).
Anyway ,I have done my STUPID ASS move for the year !!!!
I have allowed myself that ONE (and only one ) screw up.I don't want to beat myself up any more,shit, it just bugs me by re-hashing it in my mind(coulda ,woulda, shoulda......)..
I gots 3 plays I quite like,so I'm going to 'play' them RIGHT now.
1. Buffalo +5
2. Jets -1
3. OVER Pitt/ Oak. @ 39 1/2
Any other 'plays' may come on Saturday,but no screwing around for this stuff........ Spanky.......
