    I dont understand the point of paying for picks anyhow...isnt that going in the opposite direction?? losing money before even making a play...unless a guys 70%+ (which is like impossible to keep throughout a season)...how can you justify droppin 400 bones on a service?

    I hear the guy has been ice cold. Also, if you look around you can figure out what this guy is on. If you feel like buying 3 points, that is

    Guy is buried.

    He moved the Bulls line from +3 to -4 after he released his play via his website.

    No I think it's more likely that he bought 7 points from -4 to +3

    I remember him from last year, didn't really follow him. Good luck to him I guess. I could never tout even if I did feel my handicapping ability was good enough because I would feel really bad when I hit that rough spot that we all hit. It seems most try to hide when that happens or do not care. A notable exception is Kevin from nhlpredictions you could tell that his funk was eating him up big time earlier this year... but he is a rarity

    Like the old saying goes "I can do bad by my damn self". No reason to pay, especially since Im making money on my own.

    Yeah I remember him too, we bounced ideas to each other at times, seemed like a good guy, hey if someone is willing to pay I dont blame him. If they lose all they may come looking for him though haha.

    I thought it was funny the other day when someone got a hold of his picks. His lines were 2-3 points better than all lines that were offered. People started talking about how his picks moved the lines. LMAO.

    He has better lines because he buys points!

    I remember him being ok but I definitely wouldn't pay for his picks and I don't like the idea of buying a lot of points.

    Pretty much how it happens. There were many occasions last season he got lines that were pretty much opening lines that were only available for a few minutes before they moved.

    I think there was an occasion where he managed to get a -3 line which moved to -4 immediately apparently, he was telling people that the -4 and -4.5 was still a good play. Game had finished right on -3.

    Wonder how many people actually got on his Chicago PK...

    once you start charging money for your picks you start losing.

    Sweetjones claimed he was making the lines move... That once he posted his picks, the lines would move minutes later. (because he had friends and followers that were betting $50,000 and up on a game)

    Tough crowd... And hilarious considering how many faithful followers there were last year. He was good enough to follow last year but now that he went tout, he's the scum of the earth? Come on...

    SJ might buy points sometimes, but more often he buys right after the line comes out, which is smart. I don't buy picks from anyone, but I wish him success.

    Why do you people care so much? Either, you buy his picks or you don't. Seems to me some are more butt hurt they actually have to pay for them now
