    I'm starting to wonder. Hate to say it, but the thought has crossed my mind.

    Let your loyal followers take care of the trolls in your threads. I don't get what you're saying, unless your skin is truly that thin.
    NoCoin, did you see his post above that one where he said he already had 30 people buying packages from him? I must admit I was a bit surprised at that number considering what I've seen take place in this thread since it startedas far as units won and lost is concerned but then again if they're doing a joint thing - and the MLB season is almost over anyway - then I guess it's possible. Regardless, there's no point debating this with him. They're gone. Hopefully shoe will still pop around during the NBA season because not only do I find some of his opinions interesting but I always had a good giggle laughing at the shoe and goat show. But even if he doesn't, there's not much really left to say. This has been going on for a month. They're not going to change their minds now.

    first.

    Dolphins are wonderful creatures that have the ability to

    Sharks are notorious in water creatures and rarely get
    above water level. As such, I think of them as under plays.

    This replaces the and is for runs scored in the first
    inning.

    Don't look for the orcawhale to often but when it's posted
    you know it's a very large play.

    Boats are used for various functions but one of the things
    that's always common is it completes it's journey. In baseball the
    closest thing would be a series.

    Swimming is a lot of fun be it a pool, river, lake, ocean
    or gulf. If one were to do the free-style/crawl stroke, it looks like
    the person is waving to you. As such, the waving is "good bye" and
    is used for passing on a game.

    The dollar sign is one unit either risked or for reward
    if the wager is correct. Two dollar signs, means two units; etc.

    The bag of money is just that, a good sized wager against/for
    ten units. Two bags, would mean twenty units; etc.

    Running man is the closest I could find to represent the
    run line. If the or are used before it, this means
    -1' runs. If the is used before it, this would mean +1' runs.

    Party cloudy in the real world means, some sunshine and some
    clouds. In other words a day with some, not all, sunshine. For wagering
    purposes, one would be for the first half and two
    would be for the second half of the game.

    Thank you Tommy_de1st and hope that little of yours continues to bring you much joy and happiness over the years. Indeed it is, but success comes from much practice (previous decades).

So those who decide to try their luck going tout actually gain in the long run even if their experiment turns out to be failure. They'll at least have made something because any intelligent person would've collected email addresses before beginning their venture, thus having a potential customer base already at their disposal.

    People don't go tout because of haters on a public forum - there is no logic in that. If that was really the case then the person would merely PM or email their forum buddies or whomever with their plays every day for free and keep them out of the public eye. People only attempt to sell their picks when they feel they can make cash from them - whether that belief is well-founded or not - and have people willing to fork over that cash.

    Regardless, best of luck with it TA. As I'm sure you've seen, many have tried and failed to successfully go tout before you and end up back on the forum posting their picks in the end for free which is quite amusing to watch. Now that you've made this decision, I hope you're one of the minority and we don't see you back here doing the same thing as them.
    Good afternoon shari91,

    You always bring up good points that some might/not have thought about. I have seen some go and return within a few weeks to a month because they did not think things out with a solid business plan. Will this work? I know it will and perhaps the view of the way people look at others will change. You know both shoebox and I are decent honest hard working men doing what we love and enjoy. I can promise you this, I will still post here at SBR as long as the powers that be say it's acceptable but it won't be in the same capacity. Continued success to you and your family.

    dont tell shari she brings up good points, that is what she lives for on this forum. She hasnt posted anything under 4 paragraphs. I swear she writes stuff down so she has it for later. Pathetic, look at every thread she is in. Its her always trying to investigate things and trip people up. Give it a rest Shari.

    So you don't have people signing up for you picks out of sheer desperation from the fact that you abandoned the board?

    And your postgame high-fives to each other after a win aren't intended to lure in new clients? Or the constant "you've got mail" or "tweaking is almost complete" messages you guys post to each other for no reason whatsoever?

    How about proving to be a successful capper on a gambling website with a lot of movement and then deciding to sell your picks for money.

    Does that sound like a good strategy?

    Dude, I haven't even been on the forum much lately. To the point where I've had people PM, email and even start a thread asking where I've been. I make sure I explain myself properly so there's never any doubt as to what I'm trying to say - to the point that I even have people transferring me points for posts all the time!! Can you say the same thing? Nor am I trying to investigate anything or trip anyone up. When something makes sense, I agree. When something seems illogical to me, I question it. That's what adults do instead of name calling and throwing unintelligent attempts at insults to strangers on an Internet forum. Try it sometime.

    Guys, are you serious? If you've tailed TA over the last two baseball season to the letter, wagering $100 per unit you're up over $40000 since you started. Is it really the end of the world if they ask for some money for their picks? These two owe us nothing! They've decided to go tout; find another capper to tail if you don't want to pay. Come on, everybody, try to grow up.

    That's a horrible strategy, anyone who does this won't last very long.

    Any other jokes from the peanut gallery?

    Because you are a girl and they are all virgins!!!! That was too funny and reaffirms everything I have said. Everyone tells you how great you are because they have never seen a boob and are hoping today is their lucky day. They are 16 and in no way shape or form are sending you points because you just made an elegant well worded post.
