Actually I've been watching Machine's picks for weeks, maybe months now. I look all over the sbr threads for ideas, research, opinions, etc. So it' nothing new to me, I'm an equal opportunity thread reader. Heck, I'd look under rocks if I thought there were useful nuggets to aid the handicapping process. Just don't see the need for this, that's all. He posts his picks when he has them, and the record speaks for itself. Could care less if it's a service or a guy using service picks. Only care about winners. That record just means someone is picking well.

It's all good flav-o-ice. This is all about honesty. That's why what I am doing seems so rash. Now let's get back to basketball!
Manhattan or Bust!Comment -
adding oklahoma too tonight i dont see how they will lose those griffin kids are playing like studsComment -
maddog, I guess there is some question as to whether both griffin's will play. I assume the uncertainty is with Blake, who rolled his ankle last game. Anyone got the goods on this query?Comment -
The Machine
CK - I doubt the Machine will even acknowledge you in his/her thread. The Machine only posts plays and then confirms the win or loss - nothing more. I have never seen the Machine answer any questions that have been asked. The Machine can be likened to the Wizard in the Wizard of Oz. It is simply a man/woman behind a curtain that spews out the picks. You have no idea where the information comes from - but the the Machine's followers are grateful because of their success. Anyway - good luck on getting the Machine to even acknowledge that you are in his/her thread.

So Yao is definitely out? Artest and McGrady should be able to take care of business vs this Knicks team..
Houston 1q , 1st half and game ...
Manhattan -1.5 (Ck)
The Citadel +6 (The Machine)
$500 each... good luck

Be careful counting on McGrady and Artest. Although they sat and claimed to be healthy, I watched both of them last night, and they still do not look themselves. Scola and Alston were out of their minds last night against Pistons, tonight they will need to repeat that, I'm not sure Houston can lean on McGrady still. Hopefully Yao returns soon.
Playing over in the Phoenix/Washington game and going to ride the CK train on Manhattan.Comment -

CK, respectfully you are not making any logical sense. You berated both hockeycentral and lonesome loser for coming onto your thread and challenging you.
Now you are doing exactly the same thing to the Machine thread. It doesn't matter where Machine gets his pics just the same as it doesn't matter where you get your PC plays. It ain't about the honesty, it's about the ego. Live and let live bro'.
Besides I doubt that even the machine can keep pace with the infamous CK secret plays. cheers.Comment -
The PHIL/NOlinejust dropped to 2.5 with 70%+ on NO. I know night made a point of it with west and chandler both out but the movement seems to fishy. Ithink i'm liking PHIL here,
76ers are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall
76ers are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 vs. NBA SouthwestComment -
CK, i've looked back at the machines' posts and it seems that he never responds to any questions ask of him. i don't think you're likely to get a response eitherComment -
I have been thinking about a response all day to this CK nonsense and I think you hit it exactly! He is doing exactly what he always bashes people for doing to him. I love CK's research and picks but drop the f!@#ing ghetto act man...I don't know how else to put it.
I'll think of a better post later tonight but I am just doing this
at you "act" CK
Comment -
ok my plays for the night
Nets ML +105
Portland -10.5 (from Dex)
Let's cash these damn tickets and get paid!Comment -
We already know why he doesn't respond, Non. But I am leaving the subject alone and letting him live in peace now.
chipper13101,
Right, I gave them both chances to see if they were better than I in challenges because they seemed to know more about things than I do. It's not about ego. It's about the truth. JohnMorr is credible because he speaks the truth. The gentleman you speak of is not honorable because he is not being truthful.Comment -
spend some time in oakland....I have been thinking about a response all day to this CK nonsense and I think you hit it exactly! He is doing exactly what he always bashes people for doing to him. I love CK's research and picks but drop the f!@#ing ghetto act man...I don't know how else to put it.
I'll think of a better post later tonight but I am just doing this at you "act" CKComment -
ploben, It's not a ghetto act. It's a popular person's picks being exposed. I have a friend who subscribes to that service as well.
How's that edit job jaymac! Thanks for the heads up.Comment -
Sorry for the late post, plays for tonight,
Phoniex 1st qtr
Phoneix/washington over
Houston/new york under
Manhattan
PhiladelphiaComment -
Dude I don't care where he grew up or whatever, that's fine if you grew up in a tough area. But WTF does it add to these threads when you come to another sport and just start saying that people who have been making picks for a while on these threads, all of a sudden are nothing and are garbage and have to PROVE something to someone else.Comment -
ck, if your friend is paying for that service, just tell him about machine choice, then your friend won't have to pay anymore! hahaComment -
Guys, who really cares. talk about sports. I actually thought the whole machine thing was dropped a while ago. why are we still discussing it? How long before the mods come back to remind everyone to stay on point? the bathrooms are that way, go do your things over there.
now, proceed with the sports gentleman...Comment -
jaymac, I am through with that guy, I know what I know about him and that's that.
ploben,
I never said that he has to prove anything to me, or anyone else for that matter. It's a good service from what I hear. I just don't like people who pas things off as their own that aren't. You will not hear anything else from me on this subject. Thank you for your input. Your comments were greatly appreciated.Comment -
Manhattan-1 tonight boys and girlsComment -
i've watched kelso in the long ago past and the best thing to do with his pick would be to fade them.Comment -
Ok, I know this is CK thread to college hoops but I've been asked (PM) to keep making my nba picks. One user was even kind enought to suggest that I had quality enought to start my own thread. LOL
Well with that said,
I'm betting NJ +2.5 (very nice road record ATS for the nets and crappy record to OKC when being the favourite)
and I'm trying the machine guy pick (don't be bad to me CK
) Citadel+6

I bet the fans at this manhattan game are having trouble staying awake. 14-7 with 8 min left 1h. Exciting!Comment
Those boys are lights out!!
