    What the hell is wrong with the people on here

    The whole point of a betting/gambling forum is to talk about and discuss upcoming games/events to bet on. My big question is why the hell are almost all of the post about games/events that have already happened. What the **** is this about? Who gives a shit about events and games that have already gone off let alone already done? This is for people who want to discuss and see what everybody else thinks about upcoming games. It seems this site has turned into way too many people trying to brag or berate others for their picks. Once an event or game is over-STOP TALKING ABOUT IT-NOBODY GIVES A SHIT. I mean i can see a few people arguing about bad calls but c'mon this is ridiculous when you log on and almost every post is from days/weeks ago that nobody cares about anymore. When the event or game ends- STOP TALKING ABOUT IT AND MOVE ON TO THE GAMES/ AND OR DAYS GAMES. If the event/game is over you have no reason to keep talking about it and posting nonstop comments about how it went or why you were right or wrong. It seems like most people on here take it personally what other people pick for THEIR OWN plays, who gives a shit about how others are doing with their gambling. It is just so frustrating coming on here to here discussion of upcoming games and all that is here is talk of shit that has already happened- WHO DOES THAT BENEFIT???

    Stop all this bullshit about who picked what right/wrong and like you want/deserve satisfaction and praise for what you have done. That is almost as bad as all the people who come on here to talk shit about people posting losing pick-GET OVER IT- its called gambling for a reason.

    I didn't mean for this strictly to pertain to mma/boxing thread, but all the threads. I gamble on nfl, ncaaf, ncaab, and mma/boxing, just seemed like the mma/boxing thread to exemplify what I was trying to say. Unless you are retarded and follow picks blindly, you have no reason to shit on anybody's picks or plays. So why would anybody feel the need to criticize other people for their opinion?? WE and i emphasize we, because none of us should be worried about events/games after the fact should be focused on upcoming games/spreads to take advantage of.

    Welcome to the forum?

    This forum seems like it causes you a lot of stress. I suggest you use that free will you've been endowed with and refrain from logging in.

    You have a lot to learn. Discussing the results after a fight helps you handicap the next fight of those fighters. Some of the talk can be considered useless information, but many on here observe key points that can really help in future betting. In MMA what exactly are you supposed to go by if you are not going off past fights? There are several other things to look at, but a fighters past results and anything new that happened in a previous fight are the biggest factors to look at more often than not.

    given that MMA is heavily dependent on qualitative rather quantitative analysis, it is really important to discuss what actually happened in the fight.

    who was gettign the better of the striking.
    who was getting the better of the wrestling.
    did either gas out?
    did either make any big technical mistakes?

    when it comes to capping fights, the result of a fight is far less important than what actually happened in that fight.

    yeah obviously, there is just so much more bitching and complaining about peoples picks than technical analysis of the fights.

    Why not be part of the solution instead of fueling the problem? You're bitching about those that are bitching.

    "...and another thing!"


    Kaladarus got it right. It's really important to analyze fighters thoroughly to best predict the outcome when there's so many things to consider.

    Vanity nails it. This IS the game. The better we get at this, the better we are at handicapping.
