    I recently gave praise over J.R's picks but while watching this Kansas game, took a deeper look into the archives... And i have to ask myself. Why can't any of your high graded 10-20* picks (except for the 20* 76er's pick weeks ago- which also is what a 20* pick should represent) just be a win where you don't feel like you've been wearing a sweatsuit for 2.5 hours. Or even just be a win. Seriously there's more than a dozen plays a night that highly exploit the Vegas line that experienced clappers capitalize on, and the more closely i look at yours, they just look like coin flips. Someone flipping a coin will be flip higher than 50%, 49.8% of the time. Your gonna win occasionally. Maybe baseball or football more your thing i don't know? But b-ball doesn't seem to be it. I'm not here to blast in haste because i only had $50 on this game and it had been my choice to take part in your thread, but I've just come to see the light. I'm sure others lost alot more than me just because of your highly "10-20*" grade plays. Sure your insight and analysis is free.... But looking back it doesn't look anything near spectacular, and it's costing your trailers a ton. my next bet would be on that 70% of your loyal followers probably flip a coin better than you can, atleast on b-ball. My J.R. experience is gone with the wind. It was fun for awhile. I wish everyone the best. And have confidence that your probably better off capping your own games.

    Good Luck

    Lots of hate after this game......I honestly think kansas was the right side. They chocked there at the end. They dominated the entire 2nd h up until the last 3-4mins when they forgot how to score.

    "why can't his 10-20* just win". Haha this is laughable. Betting on sports would be a lot easier with a crystal ball.

    It's funny how all the criticism comes after the games have been played. I don't see any of these guys coming in here before to oppose the picks or debate the play. In fact, I don't even see them post any plays themselves. These people are just losers who try and make themselves feel better by bashing someone else.

    you know Foghorn,

    I had a big write up discussing the problem with children being allowed to bet with their lunch money and decided it was not worth my time. People who know how to gamble and respect the difficulty and patience it takes understands games like last night. It was clearly two teams who did not show up!!! Nothing more. I liked JR's Kansas play and infact bet it at a 20* play. However, I did NOT like the UNC play and simply passed.

    JR, I have enjoyed your insight and writeups! No matter who ultimately does your writeups, it takes time to cap the games!!! And you do this without asking for ANYTHING!!! And then children are allowed on this sight to complain when they lose their lunch money!!!

    I suggest you guys who don't have the money to be gambling in the first place or are not smart enough to do you own capping take up bowling...it is a lit easier.

    What truly amazes me is John's restraint. He torches the books for weeks at a time then runs into a cold spell and the Haterade gets poured all over this thread despite there being over 136,000 views. I couldn't get that many views if I posted naked pictures of my wife.....ok, granted bad example but I think you know where I'm going.

    JR, keep on keepin on and don't be shy about flaming some of these posters but we all know that's not your style Crazy Legs.

    You know Uniden,

    I was writing in support of JR. I like his plays and support him. It appears you misunderstood my position, not that it matters. But I wish those who cannot be suportive, to get the hell out of here.

    yes, it si time for a big winner.

    10* North Carolina +2 1/2

    I also like Kentucky - 7 1/2 for a 5* play and if you like the idea. Playing Kentucky, the UNDER in Kentucky, and North Carolina as a three-team parlay. Optional, but I like it quite a bit, but would recommend no more than a 3* amount for the parlay.

    Is there really a need to come in here and knock his play, then come in here and rub it in? Who needs that? I guess you don't win that often if you feel a need to come in someone else's thread and pat yourself on the back.

    i guess you are such a donk, that you cannot realize that my comment was not ironic.
    I am just glad i trusted my own opinion instead of tailing John this time.
    I was waiting for his pick in order to have one more opinion. There are times that i read and following him, if my info or knowledge is poor.
    What is your problem? Make it clear

    check it again.
    I wrote "damn... i like Kansas"
    I was kind of disappointed for being on the other side than JR, coz i respect him.
    Next time, be more careful before posting bullshit
