    Said I'm taking a balanced view on Touts this year.

    Gonna give props to...Teddy Covers. I've called him an Idiot b4. Have to say his weekly NFL show is worth a listening. In 60min, he gives a pretty good rundown on the upcoming week's games:

    Cokin on Vols:

    Dave Cokin

    • Event: (377) Tennessee at (378) LSU
      Sport/League: CFB
      Date/Time: October 8, 2022 12PM EDT
      Play: 3% – Tennessee -2.5 (-110)
      Play Rating: 3%
      Result: Pending

      Nice scheduling advantage here for what i see as a very legit Tennessee squad. The Volunteers were off this past weekend while LSU was having to scratch and claw its way to a comeback win at Auburn. Everyone knows about the Tennessee offense, but don't sleep on the defense, which is proving to be pretty elite defending the run. That's big here as LSU needs to run the ball to be effective. I wasn't at all impressed in the LSU win against a struggling Auburn entry that's likely about to fire its coach. Looks to me like a favorable matchup for the road team and the number is acceptable. I'll spot the short number with Tennessee.

    This guy Adam Trigger is an idiot. Guy actually gave his backing to Miami FL based on "Miami not giving up many long gains in the passing game."

    Did this guy watch the MTSU game? Looked like a 400-meter dash, nothing but long gainers.

    At one time i used to follow Paul Liener, have no clue who he is made up name perhaps from 2014 -2018 his picks were across the street and his over/unders in the Nfl were solid only capper i play.Andre Gomes i followed a little bit for the Nba same thing Over/unders were very good but over time were just 50/50 like everyone else.Now i just listen.No i forgot i played a little Nigel Seeley when he first Came on Follow the Money Mitch and Pauley raved over this guy i played him a couple of times and loosed so i didn't understand the Hype. So now i just watch Follow the Money and Adam Chernoff!

    Good stuff, m-cAuley. Yes, the randomness is more than most minds can take.

    You are correct. Andre Gomes was good for at least one NBA season, maybe more. Then you'd listen to him and he'd sound like a regular guy. Like you said, so often that a peak performance erodes toward 50/50 or at least 52/48.

    Don't pay for touts when there's touts out there that gives free picks on Twitter and Instagram. I seen them give away free parlays that pays from 4x to 100x that sometimes win. The catch is that they want you to follow their social media instead of buying their picks.

    Here's a good advice from this tout named Steve Stevens. Don't buy his picks but he gives the best advice on money management and betting advice.

    Mentioned that I was taking a balanced view on Touts this year:

    *Props to Ralph Michaels.

    Guy does good research. Guy is trying to produce meaningless content.

    Ralph stands out as above the crowd in 2022.

    Bill, full respect. I don't think you get the full intention of my post.

    I'm not recommending anyone pay for picks. Actually, the opposite:
    1) Someone would have to be awfully good for me to pay for their picks.
    2) Even if they're good...do I get THE RELEASE #? If they're good, I don't.

    I'm talking about free-content only (in this post). On that view:
    *Ralph Michaels has in fact released some info that adds to my handicapping process.

    He's managed to go national. Guy has a nice gig. Full props.

    I know Kellen had some good runs on NFL.

    I also know that he had...one TERRIBLE SEASON. Like so bad...that he couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat.

    Not taking a shot. Just saying that he's not full-proof.

    Haven't seen his record in a while. Does he profit annually?

    Saw him talk on a video. Wasn't impressed.

    Joe Gavazzi is a long-time tout. Advertised himself as a long-term winner. I think he had some good content (back in the day).

    I see that he's still around...which means he's been touting for > 30 years. See his list of plays for SAT.

    I find the last one (bolded) to be a particularly hilarious title:

    I think the trick is to find one that posts his plays about ten minutes after game starts. Follow them for awhile and not too hypey.
    They are out there. Just don't follow the hypey cappers.

    Would rarely give credit to a Tout for this. Watch this video:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsqSXHLhOOI

    1) This guy's early NFL video makes for a good summary (on each Monday).
    2) Teddy admits to having some personal problem.
    3) Teddy admits to being on an ice-cold streak. And you never hear a Tout say that.

    Touts have an incentive to see their customers win.

    SBR has an incentive to see their customers lose.

    Good stuff, Bill. This wasn't a thread about advocating Touts. Of course, they're slime.

    Always a good story when you can figure out a way to fade a Tout. They're salesmen, that's all.

    I personally think the Touts are pushing Duke in the bowl game way too hard. As if they're comfortable with Duke, so it's a play for them.

    This thread was supposed to be more of a fair examination of Touts. Look closely at what they're using for a basis. A lot of times, it's nothing of significance.

    In Teddy Covers' case, he flat-out tells you that he rationalizes the pick. That's a terrible way to handicap.

    I do think Teddy is a "good guy." His weekly NFL video is free info.

    He trades Picks for Dollars. And this year, he's throwing shit against the wall. Draw your own conclusion.

    There's one tout and one tout only I completely trust.
    He goes by the name of Thom O. Rino, esquire, attorney at law.

    You know him, you love him, you can't live without him, ask for him by name and accept no imitations.
    You'll be glad you did.
