I like both your picks, adam.

Doing your own research > listening to others, imo. Plus, I find it's easier/more reliable to just use statfox, kenpom, rivals, collegeinjuryreport, etc. for leans and info.

Adam...people are posting their leans ...how else do you expect to narrow down the good plays...we have to post them...not like we can call each other on the phone...calling people bullshitttters when you have been posting for 4 days here?? I have my own thread with all my plays this year documented...over 200 of them

So figure out who are the good cappers out of those 43 people, and track down their plays. You end up with 10 plays a day max, and never in a negative score i assure you.

adam - there are a few of us in ck's thread that do only pick a few games each day. many others tail ck (with good reason) and then with so many viewers, others just spit out picks for the hell of it. its all about weeding out the guys who dont seem credible. posting records doesnt always work in forums - ive seen many guys over at covers make up records that were not true. you can do your own consensus if you wish to simply tail. heck, im doing that with some of these ncaa guys - i dont have the time to cap ncaa to be honest, plus i dont watch enough of the games as i do in the pros. good luck tonight man.

Brainstorming. I know I am new here, but I fill out my spreadsheet and share my thoughts. Thats why I joined this place, to discuss ideas and get some feedback on plays!

That being said adam- There are about 4 people here who I genuinely consider what they say, the others I end up just glancing over what they say. Not trying to be rude, just honest. I love to hear reasons of why people make certain picks, instead of just shooting teams out there.

im not trying to bash you personally but your threads are out of control. you sound like you know what youre talking about but you have 43 people in your thread giving 7 picks each... its stupid, if you guys came to a consensus on fewer picks im sure we'd all make more cash.. i just want solid picks in the end.. with that being said after going 1-1 yesterday my picks for today are ..

Ohio -4
Tulane +1 (wsex)

i want everyone to document their picks from now on.. too many bullshi***rs around here.

thanks to Tpowell and machine for another winning day!

Bro!!!...lay the frickin' pipe down pal. I havent been posting for that long..however have followed for quite a while. Not being rude, however, who are you to come in here a few days ago and tell people how to handle their business? This is exactly what we are here for.... to handicap games. There is a plethora of info here, from many viewpoints and it works just fine. Why would one think that 100's if not thousands of posts would or even could come to a consensus. As well, some do and some dont document their picks, its up to the individual (again not ur concern). Read throught the solid cappers and do your own homework. Since u are new, maybe you should document your work and why you like a specific game until u do have a track record for yourself outside of machine, or TP?

Peace out...GL
