    Got raped today boys; think I'm...
    ...going to wrap it up for the season. Or at least until the playoffs, but those are the tightest lines anyway.


    1-5-1 on the day ... my single win being Jax (-200 on the ML, didn't even bet the spread ), and my tie coming from the TB game, where my book wouldn't even allow me to bet the game as a moneyline. Also a diehard lifelong Packers fan. Now stuck cheering for the Pats to beat the Bears just so the Packers remain alive. I'll hang around of course, but I think my season as a capper is over. You wait all year long for the start of football season... research, tons and tons of reading, number crunching, podcasts, tracking down the hot posters when you're a little cold; eat sleep and dream football capping... really a tragedy to have it end (especially when "the end" is your money, etc.). Oh well boys, I guess that's the way she goes. The Name of the Game. All good things...

    Absolute best of luck to all of you guys still putting in work, grinding it out, enjoying this shit and the emotional swings it brings every year. And extra props to those of you making a profit.

    And here's to Da Bears dropping this one. They still suck. And for Rodgers coming back next week.

        Your not alone man, this has been a bad year for a lot of people. If you are person that spends some time doing your reseraach. Than i would start looking at NHL. Hockey's the only reason ive been able to make profit this year.

          I don't know a damn thing about hockey man. Sure, I could crunch numbers and stuff (though I'd hardly know where to start), but there's something to be said of course for intangibles, feel, etc. And it's against my religion to follow plays blindly. I do appreciate the suggestion though.

            On a slightly better note, the Bears are getting their asses absolutely handed to them. At home. Losers.

              ...And still more. Another TD to make it 33 going into half. 1000% percent demoralizing and it's my only saving grace on a day that was 999% demoralizing for me. Sorry for the aimless commentary by the way. Thinking about too many things and stream-of-coinscious posting is easy enough.

                Anyone want to join me and cheer for Jay Cutler to cry before the day's over?

                (...or maybe I should just clean the house.)

                      My broadcast got switched over to the Jets game. Is Cutler crying yet?

                        They have nothing to feel bad about.

                        The Pats are the best team in the NFL

                          Yes, they probably are, but nothing to be sad about??

                            P.S. - Cutler may well cry whether they have anything to be sad about or not. That's just his MO. Don't kill the messenger.

                              You didn't wager amounts in percent of bankroll, but money management is key. A 1-5-1 day should be nothing more than a small bump in the road. Sorry about your luck though

                                No doubt. Usually pretty good with that too, but today was just the end of the line.

                                  Teaser my friend teaser. They don't make a lot of money but beats loosing. Don't be greedy and just take your two best plays and tease it up to 7.

                                    Yea, sometimes you need to know when enough is enough. I hope I didn't come off as condescending in my post, I certainly didn't mean to. GL henceforth

                                      No worries man it's cool. You can money manage plenty but of course at some point 1% or 5% or whatever you use as your "standard unit" is going to be next to nothing if you're on a bad loosing streak. At that point you really have to go all in. It's a shitty point.
