I can resolve this matter fairly quickly, since I seemed to be the first to notice Nicky's lies. The following is a timeline of the infamous "God's pick" discussion, along with links to the posts (for your viewing pleasure).
10/15/08 10:26PM PST Nicky announces that he doesn't post picks because he doesn't want "kids" to lose money or take the heat on a forum if a pick loses.

1/15/09 9:34AM PST Nicky announces his pick of the Eagles to win and cover the spread against the Arizona Cardinals. It was supposedly a pick "from God." Despite NFL lines becoming increasingly tight throughout a season, Nicky decides to forgo his misgivings about the possibility of his picks losing a "kid" money and announces that he will be betting the Eagles as a road favorite in the playoffs.

1/15/09 7:31PM PST Nicky declares that he will be betting three times his standard bet on the Eagles side. He declines to mention the amount.

1/18/09 1:42PM PST As the Cardinals are trouncing the Eagles, Nicky announces he has "gotten off" (laid off in common vernacular) of the Eagles side and is now on the Cardinals side. He states that if the Cardinals cover, he will now win $1100.00.

1/18/09 2:11PM PST Nicky provides a screenshot of the supposed bet in an attempt to quiet naysayers.

Nicky, in his own words, was "getting off" of the Eagles and would then win $1100 if the Cardinals were to cover. Nicky would have had to bet $0.88 (@ -110) on the Eagles since the bet on the Cardinals paid $1100.80. If this bet (of $0.88 on the Eagles) were three times his normal amount, as he previously stated,
then Nicky's unit size is approximately $0.27. Case closed.
