    Next week, I swear I will merge all Dr.Bob threads into one. It just gets sick seeing all these threads on him.

    Not a practicing doctor - I think he does purely consultant work.

    Yeah he was 0-4. Probably better to fade him right now and take the free half point or so that his picks generate.

    He is a loser like the rest, no one would work if he was that good

    I was hopin Dr. Bob could take a look at my foot, I think I may have broke it while kicking through the TV set after betting one of Bob's strong opinions...

    Great idea, lòóker. In fact, do it now. Find them all and merge into one thread in the NFL Forum.

    I ignore Bob totally in NFL, as well as any other sport besides NCAAF. He only moves lines in NCAAF.

    When you go 0-4 it is very ahrd to get back to the plus side, he will be chasing for weeks not to get back to 500.

    Would you like to make a side wager that the Dr is above .500 at seasons end?

    People that pay this tout $2500 for his picks should really quit sports betting. You know who you are, there are some that post here that pay for his picks. Stop being a moron... There are reasons why he doesn't bet his own picks.

    Ok, Dr Bob will finish the year +10 units, who cares?

    +10 units is nothing for 4 months of work!

    Buying his picks is the best investment I've ever made. He's made me a lot of money and I will buy them forever. I guess you don't like winning.

    Sure, if he is 4 games down right now. But use the Pinny closing line. I don't want him taking a point here and there.

    Line moves are not copyrighted.

    If you say "FSU moved from +3.5 to +2.5 at 5:45 right when Bob's plays came out", that is fine. If you list Bob's plays with spread and stars, or post his writeups, that's a problem.

    Indeed, regardless what you may think of the value a shills picks are, only a fool would think they have any value an hour after they're released... There is a reason they have recycling bins for yesterday's newspapers...

    durito- Obviously you are the most knowledgeable guy on Dr. Bob here since you buy his picks.

    How many games does he play each week? How are they divided between college football and the NFL?

    Is he using current lines or is it I'll take Chicago if it goes to -11 type of thing and if it never hits that he doesn't count it in his record?

    Does he play any other sports besides football?

    Why does he post opinion games if you aren't supposed to play them?

    I don't believe in touts but I'd like to find out more about the guy just in case he is the genuine article.

    Dr Bob will not do shit if you paste his plays

    Gambling is illegal so he cannot do anything

    I don't believe in touts but I'd like to find out more about the guy just in case he is the genuine article.

    He'll play anywhere from 0-15 plays College/NFL depending on where he finds value. Usually about 175 a year combined -- with more coming in college. He's had 2 straight bad NFL seasons, but the college has been incredible.

    All of his bets have line contraints: ie Chicago is 2x at -4 or better. 3x at -3 or better.

    His plays are graded at the consensus line when the plays are released, unless a game has improved to become a bet. For example he had an opinion on UNC last week at +4, and it was a 2x at +6. the line moved to 6 on sat, so it became a play. it's a very fair way of grading the plays -- and because of the line moves a lot of his games are no longer plays by the time the picks are posted here or wherever.

    The opinions are games that he considered for bets but decided against, or they need a line to move to become a play.

    He also does basketball, and is 55% lifetime.

    Other than dr bob, I don't believe in touts either and he's the only handicapper whose picks i would pay for and I will buy them as long as he is doing it. He's the hardest working guy I know.

    Most enjoy winning without having to pay more than you win.
