Week after week in making my Beat the Prick plays, I’ve simply been following the masses, going to the SBR “consensus” page, and piling on the heaviest percentage favorites.... much like a lemming blindly following other degenerate gambling lemmings over a cliff. And, of course, week after week, I’ve lost my ass.....
Jumped on a 25-0 favorite last week, made it my 2x, and promptly lost.... All season, 24-2, 18-1, 17-2, 23-3, etc., etc., etc. favorites have blown up in my f’n square face. Betting the heavy consensus favorites has resulted in me being ranked 1680 out of 1697......
So this week, I’m putting it on the five absolute worst plays available according to the present SBR consensus. A current 9-1 consensus on a certain pro game, now 9-2; a certain 5-0 nfc east o/u, now 5-1; two 4-1's – one college, one pro, are now 4-2's; a Friday night collegiate special, at 7-0, will now be 7-1 – this stupid pick will be my 2x!!!
The absolute worst, most counterintuitive plays I could find are in... Picks where, using last week’s, and every other prior f’n week’s strategy, I’d be betting the exact opposite..... Costanza would be f’n proud!
Now let’s watch my ranking soar like a JJ Gold racoon-pelt toupe flung high toward the Silver Seven's ceiling in premature celebration of a San Diego win over Pittsburgh this past October!!!!!
