    Good stuff, man. If it works for you, that's all that matters. I'll continue my occassional good-natured pokes, though.

    For the record, the only guy on SBR who I have a problem with at the moment is this guy:

    Sports betting and handicapping forum: discuss picks, odds, and predictions for upcoming games and results on latest bets.


    I found a lot of distaste for DeFacto making fun of BIGDAY's developmentally-challenged young daughter, but this is more dislikeable to me more for some reason.

        See, this is why you're getting banned. You intentionally derail threads for no reason and try to ruin the forum by starting a shitstorm. Will be a much better place when you're gone soon.

          There's a few of us on this board that frequently post while we are flushing out.

          But yeah, MD, that post you quoted was Gunshardesque for sure.

            I'm picking Shogun in the upset!!! I think Chael Sonnen is just a little too cozy behind the mic these days and has lost his mojo.. Shogun I'm sure is working hard as I type on his take down defense too.. Sonnen can get past the 1st round his cardio will be superior though..

            My take as a die hard MMA fan that pays attention to the little details and streaks... This is a very good free card to watch on FOX.. They finally deliver as every fight is a good one... Style match ups are crazy in many of them..

                I had this playing while I put down 20 units on McGregor. Spent a little more than I had originally planned. I think the music might have gotten to me.

                  I found the DoggyStyle post to be hilarious. Why you would take this clown seriously is beyond me. The DeFacto comment on the other hand ENRAGED me! I didn't bother saying anything at the time because I know that sociopaths like him can not be reached or helped. The only thing you can do is throw them away. A guy like him is a piece of human trash!

                      We're referring to a post in a different thread. It's from months ago.

                        "I don't get comfortable, I don't get complacent," McGregor said. "I went out for dinner with the Don, we went out for a meal, and I was saying to him, just because we're here now and going for meals and s--, don't think I'm going to be getting comfortable, don't think I'm going to do what a lot of these schmucks have done. They got lazy, they got sloppy and sluggish. Come fight time they show up and they're out of shape, their shots are off. Me, I don't get complacent, if anything, these kinds of things, and all this going on spoils me to work harder. I use this as motivation."


                        And, oh yeah, there's one other motivator: McGregor needs some more of that bonus cash. "I have a gambling problem," McGregor confessed. "I need to get back in there start making money again. Absolutely everything, I'll gamble on the weather if you want to give me odds. ... People saying I can't bet on myself. I don't know whether that's allowed. It's not as if I'm betting against myself. Then obviously there's something funky about that. But if I"m betting on myself to win, how's that not allowed? People are telling me I can't bet on myself. I don't know. I have a gambling problem."

                          Hah, that's awesome... I wonder if that's a common occurrence among other fighters? It would sure heighten the high of winning, but man, how much would it suck to go large on yourself and then lose your stake in ADDITION to getting your ass beat?

                            I just rewatched shogun vs gustaffson and I thought the official scores were off. Shogun did a decent job in that fight. I wonder how he will do against a guy that has spent years insulting brazil. I have to wonder what a hard training shogun will look like.

                              How much would it suck to be a big favorite and bet your entire paycheck on yourself, and wake up inside the cage, having gotten KTFO'd by the big underdog 16 seconds into the fight and the very last thing you remember doing is placing the bet. LOL

                                Conor was on the mma hour talking about paddy power loading up his account and him having a big parlay busted by anthony parosh. Dude probably posts on SBR


                                Wednesday's episode featured interviews with Conor McGregor, Daniel Cormier, Nick Newell, Marlon Moraes and Guilherme Cruz.

                                        A buddy of mine is ridiculously wealthy, so he's given me action on all sorts of loaded prop bets over the years.

                                        First prop bet we ever had was €600 that I could successfully steal a couch from a furniture store in broad daylight.

                                                      Dammit... no money at the Greek... and there's no way that line doesn't get inverted by the time it hits the other books. Hit it hard boys... it's not going to be there long.

                                                            a pretty popular european book offered a bet in early 2010 regarding the gitmo detainees and will they be released before 12/2010

                                                            it was +100 for NO and I won

                                                            kind of felt bad afterwards but hey I'll take it
