Brocks big play is WSOX.

Just curious, who is Brocks?

[John Ryan]

also, a 5* on Oakland +102 for Thursday night. Thanks

[Swinging Johnson]

Just curious, who is Brocks?

Brock Landers....the Mush's mush....a one man bankroll busting wrecking crew. If he's on the White Sox, you can feel very good about the BoSox. Good luck tonight John, don't let the bastards get you down.

[epr038]

Down 42K. Not easy to do betting nickels and dimes you know....oops..43 thousand....just saw the Phillie score.

He also had a 10* play on Anaheim in his "article's"

Philly 10* Loss
Anaheim 10* Loss

-355 units?? Ha ok. He's been shaving off units all year.. and has been called out on it all year. Always with the same response " No No No this is what I'm down.. look at the article's." Well i went back to day one and looked at this thread and his article's and am certain he's down over 440 units. A true professional who has been doing this for 20+ years and has a respected thread and following should post his record EACH and EVERY day. Luminosity was doing a great job at that until he realized when to throw in a losing hand and it could not have worked out better for John. Your record is WAY off John. Yes Yes Yes. Go back and do the math from day one. Anyone. I could care less if this dude wins or loses.. his thread has entertainment value in following.. but anyone whose recorded total and real total are so far off is just shady.

Since the all star break you are -67 Units. Since your last record update on 7/7 right before the break you are -95.5. Let's pretend your -355 stated today is accurate. 355 minus 95.5 would put you at 259.5 going into the break. You haven't been in the 200's since June. Your accurate total going into the break is roughly -370 if dated back to opening day. This is based on both thread & articles and going back less than 2 weeks. Any thoughts?

[dice]

Yes on all. Already looking forward to it. Last year was a ton of fun.

Great!

exactly his record is always off he is down wayyyy more than 355 units this is very common in all his threads he doesnt update the record for weeks than shaves off units ....he spends so much time on SBR you think he could take time to update the record correctly

I bet you Brock has a better record than John Ryan has

[Inkwell77]

John Ryan is getting buried.

Tried to tell him multiple times to stop betting the Phillies yet he still bets them. Also, his record keeping is very very suspect at best. He still won't put a line next to the team

[jimm246]

Nice work John hitting all the games today. 2-0 for the day.

[Wargasm]

Just curious, who is Brocks?

I just joined the forum yesterday and I already know who Brock is LOL

Decided to go against him and pounded Red Sox ML and RL:

ok, Friday Night, looking to get some momentum going here and right this ship... To clarify, and it was written in here several weeks ago. Amid confusion of not knowing when any of my articles were released and which plays qualified, we stated and agreed that all plays MUST be noted here in the thread for the purposes of record keeping.

5* Boston -179
10* Texas +130
5* Colorado -105
5* Braves +132

One game that i dont like on your list is the Braves. I think Washington is going to take tonight.

[JJJ]

Another great night John keep up the good work make sure you add all the losses to the record you seem to miss alot

[The fiddler]

John rides the Braves who set a team record in overcoming a 9-0 deficit. Good job John. The bad news is the other 3 plays are blowout losses saddling his backers with a net minus 16 unnies.

I haven't made a wager on baseball since last August. Whenever I get the urge, I rummage through this train wreck and am quickly reminded why I quit.

[Inkwell77]

Seriously. This thread is an amazing example of why baseball is a terrible sport to bet.
Capping baseball is seriously a jungle.

[jimm246]

Baseball is a hard sport to wager on. The juice is cazy s good or crazy bad sometime

[Zubi]

Great blog

[The Kraken]

Guys if you're looking to tail, check out my thread "krackens dart throwing service".

Every day I chunk darts and pick my plays accordingly. Currently up $2k. Will have todays plays up soon.

I'm do for a huge day.

[Vasco]

Not sure if you're serious, but it's more profitable to have someone who knows nothing about baseball just randomly select games than to actually follow John Ryan. It's getting out of control. There is no way he actually bets his own money on these games. Chucking darts is definitely more profitable.

[John Ryan]

5* Braves +100 in the first game starting at 1:05 PM ET.

[John Ryan]

Again, I am having a bad year in MLB. Last year was the direct opposite. I have been doing this for 18 seasons and this is by far the worst stretch I have endured. MLB is a sport you can make a ton of cash in and you should not avoid it simply because I or someone else is having a rough go of things. If it was always so very easy to pick winners then everyone would be millionaires and there would be no casinos left in business..

There a thousands of people in this world that lose 50K over the course of a weekend. Th losses MUST always be an amount that will not cause undo and unnecessary stress and panic in your life. I know there are people, who just love it when someone struggles. It is human nature, but I will continue to march forward toward better times.

A great Hall of Fame coach I once PLAYED FOR as a teenager, always said that when you strikeout out you are that much closer to your next homer run. The key is not letting the strikeout linger in your mind for more than a few seconds. The same MUST be accomplished in sports betting and so many other endeavors in life. Think, the best leaders at the British Open concern themselves with a poor shot when setting up over the next shot. Short memories and focus on the next opportunity is what makes greatness.

10* Chicago White Sox -114 Saturday.

[The fiddler]

Seriously. This thread is an amazing example of why baseball is a terrible sport to bet.

The truth. Baseball is the easiest game in town to set lines that cannot be beaten. There is very little "mindset" in baseball. No game plan, no revenge factor and no match up issues that cause dull lines. They are there in footballl...in particylar, college football. Football is the only game where a sharp cat can win fairly consistantly.

The way to win in baseball? Pick one game for the season....probably a 2 to 1 favorite and let er rip. Lay 10K to win 5 and hope the baseball gods shine. Play golf the rest of the summer instead of pissing your life away watching multimillionaires jog down the line after hitting a week grounder to short. Then your football season can pretty much be played with house money.

[chineselover]

I followed John since last year NFL, which he did pretty good, his NBA picks was so so, but his MLB pick is sub par this year... not sure why is that... but keep up with hard work, you will get it right..........

[Vinnie Paz]

This is a lot worse than sub par.
I dont mean to come off as a prick or whtever, but really id just mail it in and chalk this season up as a write-off.

[John Ryan]

5* Oakland +170

5* Seattle + 173

5* Cubs +175

and a 3-team round robin parlay with these three teams at 3* each parlay.

[drnkyourmlkshk]

Hey John
I think the baseball capping contest is alot of fun. Thank you again for giving me the opportunity to compete. I dont think there's been too many occasions in my life where I have gone on a 10 game win streak over 3 days tough to sweep the board that often. I have begun seeing things differently here in the 2nd half. I commend you for coming on here everyday and posting your plays it is not easy to do.

I also know you have been struggling and we are both big football guys and I give myself a fairly big edge vs most in college football but I respect your opinion on the sport and watched all your videos every thurs. they were terrific.

I would like to challenge you to a year long 1000 point contest in college football. Minimum 150 plays and all plays must be posted by the Thursday line. I like to bet earlier in the week than most when it comes to the grid iron sports. I dont use any models but I do use a power ranking, research system and prefer to hit numbers as early as possible. I realized with this baseball contest that I focus a little more and with all my futures wagers being placed, I dont have a lot to do. This might be a source of additional motivation something I have been lacking the past week in my constant research and reading.

I realize i dont have 1000 points on here currently so if need be I will purchase them if I somehow go on a terrible downswing in our current contest in the next 23 plays. I hope everything turns around for you in the bases season but Im always looking ahead as Im sure you are as well.
Feel free to pm me either way. Keep fighting
Thank you, MILK
