Don't take this thread too seriously and get all mad. I'm just saying that the reason people come to threads like this is to consider unthought of details, trends, criteria, etc. But there seems to be an abundance of people just cheering for their home team and going with their gut feelings. All I ask is if people are posting such things as "Denver will roll" or "Denver is the sharp play" it would be nice to know that you live in Colorado and you cheer for your brother, who happens to play for the Nuggets.

Yeah I learned today to just entirely fade everyone on here..too many guys picking losers just because they don't want to look square.

Who was on Denver?

Typical. Problem with the world. Nobody wants to accept responsibility for there own short comings. Nobody can talk you into anything without your consent

I think i'm going to employ the strategy of fading the over-confident LOCK threads that we see on a daily basis. Today for instance:

http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...ht.html?slf=27 "taking CAVS tonight"

http://forum.sbrforum.com/nba-basket...magic-all.html "Orlando Magic ALL IN!"

I don't like to call people out. There were a plethora of Den/Nets threads between 9 and 10 pm.

Kindly stop influencing me with your rampant rhetoric. Or I will just have to ignore you until AFTER my bets are placed.

Just do this. It's common sense...

There are maybe about 5 people in the NBA section of the forum worth listening to. And i'd say 80% of them knew better then to bet Denver. You'll be better off ignoring everyone else.

If that's true, why do you spend so much time here?

demens · 02-01-11, 01:37 AM

To see what those 5 have to say and at times laugh at the rest for being stupid.

Whippit · 02-01-11, 01:37 AM

True dat pappy... If you're working a system you're already way out in front of 98% of "cappers" on here. As you said, most just cheering on their team. And nothing wrong with that, you just gotta realize there's 3 or 4 good cappers on here, some do nice write ups and others just post their picks. Just gotta find em
