I think he goes over 50% from here on out but still in the red for the year.

It will depend on which games and teams he picks. I hope he uses more common sense and less meaningless stats.

He's on a slide. He doesn't know which was is up right now. Fade him again.

i honestly wouldn't mind a losing season
get all this attention off him, and he can go back to making his long time customers a ton of money off the radar
but, his methods are sound -- nothing has changed, this is just variance, the same way 2005 was in the extreme other direction

The stats he uses are pretty reliable. You have to admit this has been a crazy year in college. It worked for the last 10 years. Rather have 10 good years and 3 bad weeks.

Who's monitored his record over the years? These things seem to take a life of their own. I read he had 6 years of winning, just saw on the RX a couple of minutes ago they said it was 8 years, now you are saying 10 years? Which is it?
I don't believe you can win with a tout. You pay your own juice, that's hard enough to beat. Then of course you add "juice" on top of that with what you pay him in fees, and then you got to fight to get the same numbers. These popular touts who market themselves well get such a following that the lines are all but impossible for their followers to get.
I don't know the guy, I don't even keep up with the latest flavor of the month when it comes to touts, but I'd say Dr Bob is closer to being a real Doctor than he is a professional sports bettor. Just curious, why wouldn't he just bet his plays if he was so great? I don't see any of the big betting syndicates trying to sell plays, they are more than happy to bet them.

I don't know I think he means only his "loyal" customers get the good picks, I think

What Dr bob has to say about this slide:
It is certainly the case that my 57% college Best Bet win percentage on over 1500 Best Bets in 20 years is more significant evidence of my ability than the 10-19 record on a sample of just 29 Best Bets. I know you're not really concerned with how I've done in past years because you're losing this year (unless you were fortunate enough to have been a client in those years), but my long term 57% winning record is more indicative of my future success than my 10-19 record so far this season and the future is all that matters at this point as nothing can be done about the losses I've suffered so far this season. I've overcome bad streaks before and I'll overcome this one as well. I may not end this season with a winning record given my bad start but I'm very likely to have a winning record from this point on given my long term win percentage.

Dr. Bob will continue to slide, I'd take a bet that he will end down for the year

He is a loser like the rest, no one is sharper than anyone else. These games are pure guesses period.

The skill is to bet on his winners and fade his losers.

If you understand the statistical concept of expected vlaue you know the answer to this question....and it is an easy answer.
