And you actually had people put money on this play because the guy said "Lock"..

Mac4Lyfe · 02-06-09, 10:29 PM

The only true lock is when someone says "Here, I will put the money up for you". Anything else is BS.

Nice "Lock"

Portlander · 02-07-09, 01:11 AM

oh wait.. where is the vacuum version of this with
the money going up...

You would be worth quite a bit of money if you faded every pick in a thread that says "lock."

I have some Ramen noodles I can spare too!

I'm just teasing the guy, I think people just get leary when people use the word lock is all. I played Boston anyways last night, it was a nail biter the whole game going to the 4th.

Al88 · 02-07-09, 11:40 AM

thanx guys for the soup. Now all I need is another

so I could bet my car

Now to be serious for a second:
When you use the word "lock" on a bet, that bet is supposed to be 100% win. If you lose even 1, it's not exactly a "lock"... isn't it?

But I doubt that there are gamblers around here that put a bet, just because some dude said it's a "lock".

In his original thread in connection to the Cardinals/Eagles game I posted that "lock" was perhaps not the best term to use. His response was to send me a private message after the game saying:

How do you like your f*cking Eagles now idiot. Philly blows..

I am not a Philly fan, but still after that comment followed by the bet your house stuff I don't think a break is required. He had better be right everytime.

So the Cardinals ML bet he supposedly made for 10k was not a "

" play?

The way I see it he is 4-2 out of a total of 6 plays.

That sounds pretty good until you think about it.. There is no rational for his picks other than the word "lock" and if he is flipping a coin with a total of six picks the average is quickly righting itself..

Tail him if you like but I will respectfully pass.

See, IF yoou didn't say "Lock" (and you gave just 1 Reason) then, sure most here wouldn't & shouldn't be bagging on you for the play. but, as I said, don't use that word, getting Everyone in trouble, esp the Bettors.
Anyway, the 2plays, I posted here, on your thread Won,
but I didn't say "Lock"?
