Pags, I know we fought over the June Jones issue...but I sure do love your GT pick.
Absolutely love that game.
Miami's line is so crazy I feel like a dog staring at an open gate..."Do I try it?"....I love the 23, but I am just too uneasy about it.
Best of luck.

Pags,
I am new to this board as well but followed a few of your picks in week 1. I know it is a lot of hard work to give those detailed write ups every week. I look forward to betting with you all year. Do you recommend any other sites or cappers other than yourself so I can get all the knowledge and more lol. Anyways just wanted to say hey and thank you for your hard, unpaid efforts. Lets kill the books this year.
PS
By the way, what do you think about Texas -24.5 against UTEP. UTEP got beat by Buffalo 42 to 17 and Texas put a beat down on Florida Atlantic. It seems like that line against UTEP is way to low, I was expecting 34 plus. Anyways what do you think about it.

You've got to be happy getting Penn St at -13, Pags. I took it at -15. Can't see this game being very competitive.

I only meant he got a good opening line, nothing more. Looks like I'm going to have to more more careful in the future.

Pags, I like East Carolina and Penn State. I think West Virginia is going to hurt this season without Slaton and their defense. We get a decent home doggy here playing an overhyped team in my opinion.
Penn State looked impressive this last week even if it was against lowly Coastal Carolina. I feel like we are getting a great home line against an Oregon State team that lacks a consistent defense and has to travel all the way to Happy Valley for the first time.
I disagree with you on the Miami play though. I think we will see a similar incident to the Miami/Oklahoma game of last season here. Florida should be a little more refined this week and I think they lay a whipping on an ACC team that is still a year or two away from being decent.
Good luck this week, Pags!

Pags,
I think you should wait 30 minutes or so after the lines come out before posting your plays. I don't doubt that you were able to get these numbers, however the lines are very volatile when first coming out. It's going to rub some players the wrong way when the see most of the games 2-3 pts in your favor.

Stanford was +14.5 for a whole 7 minutes. Pags you are quick. It must be hard looking at all the lines of all the games and then betting the ones that are off all within 5 minutes. Pretty impressive.

Rocket science here. Lines are volatile when they first come out? Like subject to change? You mean lines change? That's a conspiracy theory and I don't believe you

I believe this what the part that got me the most. I want to ask you if you were serious here but I have no doubt you were. Pags it might rub people the wrong way when you get better lines by being so savy and sharp so as Helmut appears to be implying here, we were wondering if maybe you could start shopping for worse lines so that people don't get so rubbed wrong? We'd apprecaite that Pag's thanks
Again I apolgize but come on already, rub players the wrong way by getting more favorable lines? You should share some of that shit you're smokin man. Hell I'll take a hit. It'd probably make me feel better about my Rutgers bets lol

Suggesting Pags wait "30 mins" to post is moronic.
Do me a favor, call a day trader and ask him to wait 30 minutes prior to buying or selling and see the response you get.
Sharp players get sharp lines. If Pags can get those lines, more power to him for having done his work early.

cris profiles it's players, if a profiled players hits an opener for the max, it's going to move.
there are plenty of people ready and waiting to bet the second those numbers come up.

What I find problematic about pags' picks (and it's no disrespect intended to pags personally) is that not only is he posting these non widely available opening numbers but he's also somehow managing to find a bookie to take them all at +100.
I don't doubt that pags is able to make money betting this way, and more power to him. But a person attempting to tail his picks, having to consistently bet not only at a line 1+ points worse than pags, but also at -110 (versus pags' +100) should exercise caution.
