The 2012 NFL with John Ryan

[BrokeLiving]

Why would you do that? What sense would a normal person have to do that? I mean, I'm not sure how old you are, but you must know this is gambling, and gamblers lose over the long run (<1-3% make money over a long period of time).

I really would ask that you look to get help. Google it, there are many places to find it. Don't let it ruin your life, and remember that you are most likely in the 97%, not the 3%. Everyone thinks they can be winners, and that's exactly how Vegas was built!

Degens gotta degen

[John Ryan]

JR what's your 20* record now??? man ya under and house picks was not even close.. WOW

I am tabulating the record and I think one of our posters is figuring it out. If not I will take over the reigns.

Degens gotta degen

I had to look this up, beleive it or not..

For those, who like me, did not understand the urban lingo.. here is the link.. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=degen


you are right though.. people get addicted to rush of adrenaline and some even like the losing more than the winning. It is aserious illness and I am hoping our friend with the laptop on collateral was just kidding. If not, then yes, by all means get the help you need. There is nothing to be feared in making your life better. This after all, is a game of chance.. and as a friend of mine says, some days you are the dog and others the hydrant.. The hydrant SUCKS! period.. On to a better day..

The MLN thread did well with two 10* winners on the Cardinals and Tigers and winning the 3* parlay to boot. so, for the weekend I basically was down a modest amount. It is tailing me on all sports in a disciplined fashion that will give you a great chance at making some coin. Note that I did not promise or guarantee anything, especially profits. I promise you there will be losing days and losing weeks, but over the course of 18- years I done pretty darn well. However, the lack of maturity and the need for instant gratification gets to the gambler very quick and when emotions rise to the top and actions are being done without the benefit of intellect, then it is time to stop. period.

what the pick tonight John???

[John Ryan]

5* San Diego pick-em..

Play against all teams where the line is +3 to -3 with a poor first half defense allowing 14 or more points per game and after a loss by 10 or more points. This system has gone 16-3 ATS over the past three seasons. San Diego has adjusted their once-vertical pass routes and have gone to a more underneath passing scheme. They also now have running back Ryan Mathews back and he is also a threat out of the backfield. Defenses have taken away the deep seem routes that Rivers had been throwing the past several seasons. In a sure sign of maturity and leadership he is now focused on executing passes underneath zone coverages - what the defense is giving and it is working very well.

That would depend on what you'd call a modest amount

NCAA +3 units
MLB +37.30 units
NFL -69.80 units

This weekend (not including tonight's game) is -29.50 units.

It's modest compared to your overall (MLB Playoffs, NCAA, NFL) -73.85 units so far. In NCAA and NFL, these last three or four weeks have been brutal. The MLB Playoffs would be the only reason people following you haven't gone broke yet.

I don't mean to sound harsh but things are what they are. What do you think is going on that you've gone ice cold lately?

[alexknyc]

Last Night:

5* San Diego pk. LOSS

NFL Week 6: 2-10 -75.30 units

YTD: 23-35-1 -71.35 units

[JimmyChoo]

Dude John I feel like you been picking wrong a lot lately man... 20* on the under for eagles/giants game was the last time I remember you being right.

[JimmyChoo]

Good thing I picked the broncos last night I think your losing your cred by picking the chargers what were you thinking?!? Get your head out of your simulator and actually look at the game logically lol

[BING23]

whats your play today john

[NYGNYM86]

Good thing you post ur play after the game ended. Thank God otherwise we would have all missed that great opportunity but don't worry i had a few million on it

[Vasco]

Is this guy fade material like he is in NBA and MLB?

[NYGNYM86]

^for that JimmyChoo character. Not JR.. Wats the play John ignore the children

[NYGNYM86]

absolutely not fade material he lost the over on the jets/texans by a half point and got screwed with chargers up 24 and Norv iwillbeunemployedsoon Turner blew it. Dude is legit i been following since last NBA season.. i didn't follow mlb though because i don't like doing many mlb dogs id rather lay the chalk wit weaver or verlander

[Zeero]

Is this guy fade material like he is in NBA and MLB?

Dont know for MLB but yes for the NBA... but dont hold it against him. If we all win because he's an autofade, props to all of us and nothing bad against him. If it works, DONT FIX IT.

Whats your pick tonight John?

[alexknyc]

Is this guy fade material like he is in NBA and MLB?

He is in the red in both NFL (-71.35 units) and NCAA football (-42 units), but not in the MLB playoffs (+59 units).

[p19101]

One would think that a serious sport bettor would have their plays all written down. Keeping your plays "on book" is pretty important for future reference.

[jinxpro13]

LOL to this thread.

[Vasco]

He is in the red in both NFL (-71.35 units) and NCAA football (-42 units), but not in the MLB playoffs (+59 units).

Last I checked he was down like 400 units in MLB regular season. So I'm glad to see he actually won something back for anyone foolish enough to follow.

Sounds like he's pretty good fade material then.

[ricky777]

John, I know I am down $ the last 3 weeks with my local, alot of $ but I need you to bounce back otherwise I have to do the "bets off" thing but I Love Football and really dont mind losing a grand or so but I can't play any more unless we turn this around. Football season is my most favorite time of the year! I'm still with you, and hope we turn this around. Again I do apprecciate your hard work, Good Luck !

[stone cold locks]

JR, whats the word today? you gotta get back on the winning side so all the trash talkers leave this thread.

[Pat McCrotch]

I dont know how you morons have the cheek to trash talk John,

Its clear he knows what he is talking about, as his write ups are good.

Only a fukin Moron would follow someone else 100%

[stone cold locks]

i agree, i have followed john for 2 years, he is having a bad season but his research and writeups are great. Ive seen him go 6-0 on nfl and ncaaf in the past. these random posters with 5 or 6 posts are just that trash talking losers. and where were they in the beginning of the year when john was smoking everything.

I completely agree with the last 2 posts. For those of you coming to this forum just to chirp because you don't have the sense to make your own picks and see someone on a little losing streak, us real sports bettors don't need you here. John has proved himself the last 2 years and takes a long-term approach to sports betting. Personally, between tailing John and betting on my own leans, I have done quite well for myself.

Like moms around the world have always taught us, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." You highschoolers who spend your time going forum to forum to harass bettors on a cold streak will learn that important lesson soon enough in life.

[suitor]

Let's see those picks John and let this be the start of your turnaround!!

[guyc]

Not sure what you were following but I did great with John's NFL and NCAA picks last year!

Thanks for the positive comments. It has been a great run here at SBR even though I am struggling in 2012. Over 18 years, it has shown positive returns far exceeding those produced by the stock markets and other financial options. The important thing to remeber is the long-term vision and not the big winning or losing streaks.

[John Ryan]

5* Washington + 6 1/2

20* New England - 10 1/2

10* Houston - 6 1/2 -110

10* Bengals pick
10* UNDER Bengals 45 1/2 -110

[EvilBettor]

5* Washington + 6 1/2

20* New England - 10 1/2

10* Houston - 6 1/2 -110

10* Bengals pick
10* UNDER Bengals 45 1/2 -110

Looks good. Hoping for a winner today!

[psufan]

I like New England

[John Ryan]

Just so the word is out from me first, I have resigned from writing articles for SBRforum.com. It had nothing to do with the rough ride I have endured in terms of wins and losses, but rather the huge amount of time I have given and just cannot continue to give to the production of articles. Many of you experienced the great seasons of the past few years, so hopefully this is a blip on the screen and with the added time I can do better research in handicapping games and finding complete wagering opportunities in all major sports.

I have enjoyed writing them, but find that I have several opportunities before me that I simply need time to devote to. I do hope to continue these threads and provide videos with Peter Loshak indefinitely. Peter is the best!

I will also be redeploying my own personal site: johnryansports.com, which will have links to SBRForum as well. This site will provide you with handicapping stats, data, facts, and fantasy football ideas that you are more than welcome to share on these threads too.

Thanks for all of your loyal support and contributions.
