    I love how that clown all Super Bowl week milked the Panthers, and how they were a sure fire bet, his largest bet ever, etc etc, than the next week, not a word about the game.

    Warriors/Cav's - The amount of time during the series he repeatedly said "this series is over folks" "this series is over", the Monday after Cavs won (Father's day Sunday), not a word about it all following week.


    Dishes out this cocky confidence, but tail between the legs and hides when he loses. Typical media.

    I'll throw one more out :

    Iowa in the Rose Bowl was his College Bowl bet of the year.

    Crickets after.

    poor bastard has no idea how to pick winners

    so he doesn't bet but gives out picks against the spread? what is the point exactly?

    he'd be a tout if he didn't have a radio show.

    He is not good enough to be a tout. He used to have a blazing 5 with analysis and had only 1 winning season over the last 5 picking games that he liked the most

    well how many touts actually win? touts are just good sales people. just look at the poster that literally sent $10,000 for a losing pick and was debating whether to pay $30,000 for a pick. anyone that can talk out of their asses can be a profitable tout whether the pick wins or not imo...

    Nail. On. Head.

    If this could be told to every bettor in America. If you can pick winners yourself, you don't be a tout.

    Who uses a bad tout long term??? You have to win and give out winning picks because everyone keeps track of records these days. So if you can't pick winners long term you can't be a good tout. All of us are tauts if we bet, but only a few will take us seriously unless we win.

    We are all probably better than professional tauts because we actually put money on our picks instead of trying to sell them, so naturally we have more at stake and are probably more confident in what we bet. Cowherd can't be betting on his picks because he would have quit by now, he would be at least 100 units down.

    you're kidding right? how many touts actually have winning records? not many... if you can name 10 touts that have long term winning records you win.

    besides, some touts give out both sides and use lines like if this bet loses i'll cover half of the loss. but as we all know, that's all bullshit.

    Not exactly true. Think of the thousands and thousands of terrible degenerate gamblers out there that can't stop yet can't pick a winner yo save their life. Whether a tout wins on a consistent basis he will always be given thousands of sheep to call by references from books and other sources that will believe anything. Especially when it gets really bad for people like that. No tout is ever going to run out of sheep. Just look at our service plays thread, so many poor saps.

    Most of the sales people or touts offer to reimburse half ur loss as mentioned above. They also pick both sides of the same game and split the picks among their clients so that they net a profit regardless of outcome

    My point is Cowherd is giving his picks publicly and not both sides and we can track how poorly he is doing. Someone giving out both sides of a game is a fraud. Who believes that touts are actually better than the average bettor?? Hank Greenberg was terrible, Jimmy the Greek was decent, the Swami can't even pick games straight up. Anybody can doctor up a record giving out both sides of a game. If you want to be a taut you have to have a public record that is better than the average better and Cowherd does not.

    Just because he doesn't give out both sides of a game doesn't change the fact that he is devoid of any sports knowledge whatsoever.

    Cowherd had one of the best seasons ever a few years ago. Lost the first week, then won 16 weeks in a row, with a lot of 4-1 weeks. He was awful the next season, I believe he is .500 this season so far.

    No handicapper picks +70% ATS over a sample size of 300 games or more, that lunacy! 60-65% is more probable.

    He does seem to some that he is great because of ONE season that everyone brings up instead of the 5 or 6 that he stunk it up. In fairness, he has some of the best analysis pre game than anyone I've ever seen, but the games are played on the field when pre game analysis mean nothing. Basically, he sounds loud and good even though the picks are average.
