This dude Pags....

[BuddyBear]

bmw we know.

Buddybear is obviously in love with him or in cahoots with him so he is overprotective. But anyone that is unbiased can see u were just asking an innocent question.

Daggerkobe, the guy has almomst 2,000 posts. He knows who Pags is and is just trying to stir trouble. This is a classic case of "I didn't do anything" other than ask a simple question. But his point was not missed.....

[Tosser]

oh well BB, gambling forums are full of dicks..internet tough guys, in reality most of them are crying when they sleep ^^

[bmw530i]

Does he do any TV stuff, or any Las Vegas related publications?

[daggerkobe]

I can assure u I have no idea who pags is.

I didn't even know he was alive until his post in the Players forum demanding that someone be banned from his threads, acting like a pompous primadonna diva.

The other time was when someone asked why he graded his plays at +100 when the rest of the capping world used the standard -110.

Nonetheless neither of these threads made me want to know him any more than before. I have never read any of his picks threads nor do I plan on doing so.

If I cared about writeups and stats I'll read them at dozens of websites like ESPN, Sportsline, etc. I don't need someone to breastfeed me these info.

Pags is a great capper, but he is overly sensitive. I gave him some constructive criticism and he interpreted it as being "negative" and he alienated himself from me saying that I lost a friend.

Shit, those of you that know me know I get along with everybody, and I have no idea why he overrected the way he did. But whatever the reason, that turned me off to him in a BIG way.

LT,

According to BuddyBear he bench presses 500 lbs and he's an ex-professional MLB player. Could be roid rage.

[BuddyBear]

I said he is in great shape...he probably can bench 500lbs, he is in amazing shape, and yes he did play professional baseball.

I am sorry LT about your experience, but you should have been a little bit more respectful in how you addressed the situation. It happens though, and you can't take anything back. There was no need to start that thread IMO. Best thing is to let sleeping dogs lie or whatever the saying is....

[LT Profits]

Thread was meant to be a POSITIVE, encouraging him to not let the negative posts in his thread force him out of the forum. There was nothing disrespectful about it.

Whatever.

[BuddyBear]

LT, that's fine, I get where you are coming from and can appreciate the situation and have no doubt that you are one of the good guys on here.

However, considering he has been here longer, has more posts than you, and is an overall better NCAAF capper than you, you should have handled the situation with a little more humility. Pags is a made-poster, and you should not have assumed that he would be interested in hearing your second-guessing or anything else that you have to say. If Pags wants anything from you, he'll ask you personally about it. Just the way it goes on here LT....nothing I can do to change the time honored rules of posting ettiquette.

Let's not get carried away now. I've been over 60% in four of the last seven years and last year was my first losing season since 2000.

Anyhow that is neither here nor there. There is no such thing as a "made" poster. If he can't take the heat, that is his problem. And what does longevity and number of posts have to do with anything? He should have known there was no malicious intent whatsoever with my thread.

[ertl09]

its a forum! what do you expect other than people critizing each other. I guess if he couldn't handle it thats his problem.

Exactly!

Damn shame too because he is a damn good CFB capper and I never had a problem with him before.

[BuddyBear]

All I know is that in the real world, if you guys said some of the things you said to him personally, you would have been whacked by now. Lucky we live in the cyber world here.

[Tsoprano]

So if there is a Pags thread it's automatically negative?? I didn't start this thread for negative purposes...

Definitely not.

Ignore Buddy Bear and his silly ramblings.

[LT Profits]

BB,

Agreed, but that is a reality of forum life. No one is immuned to criticism. It just comes wih the territory.

[Tsoprano]

You svcked this guy's cock from every angle so far.

We get it, he is a good capper and spends a lot of time researching his plays. Why does he need you to speak for him?

I guess when you only have a couple friends (EVEN in an internet forum), you try your best to maintain those few realtionships.

[daggerkobe]

So LT, are you saying you wouldn't want to invite Buddybear to your pad so he can come watch you work-out and cap games?


That's the weirdest/gayest thing I've ever read anywhere.

[LT Profits]

Sorry, I already have an open invite out to Sportsgirl.

My wife could stuck around too.

[MBENZ]

What the fuk is"pags is a made poster" and "some of you guys would get whacked"?Which are you bb,jr.mob man or just the nutty professor?Either way,you have some serious mental issues.

[frostno98]

I no Idea who the hell Pags is until I heard his name floating around recently, might have to check his stuff out. Any good inside info is good for everyone.

[BuddyBear]

So LT, are you saying you wouldn't want to invite Buddybear to your pad so he can come watch you work-out and cap games?

hmmm, guess you don't get it do you Daggerkobe. Are not you the same guy who thinks USC would beat Oakland by 2 TDs, the same Oakland who is ready to win their second straight road game???

Let me phrase it in a more simple way. You bet on NCAAF. You suck at betting on NCAAF. Pags bets on NCAAF. He is the best capper on here. Why would I look to you for advice on NCAAF instead of him. Why should I not admire someone like him...who pours his heart and soul into it.

Am I really to talk with you about betting on games...someone has moronic as you. A guy who steadfastly believes a college football team would beat an NFL team by 2TDs and put up 42 points in the process of doing it? Pags and I are colleagues. We work together on these things. We share information, compare notes, and discuss things over. Of course I am going to defend him. The fact that I know him personally tells me that he is a genuine person.

If you were to talk with him, it would be like trying to understand Chinese. You can't understand anything he says. The best you could do is hope he might invite you in on a conversation or let you serve him a drink or something.


Listen LT: I know you meant well and are a very nice guy. We've known each other for a while and I respect you immensely. You are one of the best and an overall good guy both on and off the computer. I think it is best we let this thing die down. It happned and there is nothing we can do. What's said was said and everybody just needs a little time to cool down. I know you didn't mean what you said, but it happened. Don't worry about it anymore LT

It's a metaphor you idiot.

The point was to illustrate that he deserves a little bit more respect than he does and if SBR was run with a mafia mentality, that's what would have happened to these posters.

[daggerkobe]

Still doesn't explain why a guy would accept another guy's invite to come watch him "work out"......

I think I found a plot to Brokeback Mtn 2.

[gummo]

This thread is awesome!

I didn't work out with him moron...and even if I did, what's the big deal.

I went out to study NCAAF with him. We watched game tape, study notes, set lines and power ratings, etc.. It paid off last year. Look at his record. You think he dilly-dallies like you and just bets whoever? You think i was wasting time out there?

[daggerkobe]

When did the making out start? Who made the first move?

We need the juicy details!

Hello, hypocrite. I made a non negative post to Pags, and it was YOU who protected him even though you KNEW it was not a negative post, and now you want to get on hear and shoot the shit about him being overly sensitive. And now because he turns on you, you want to vent. What a joke. So Pags can have you as his bodyguard and he is god no matter what, but when he treats his bodyguard like shit then NOW we have a problem. You can't have it both ways unless you are a politician or a bi sexual.

[bmw530i]

hahah ....Gummo....I didn't realize we all would end up on the Maury Povich show...but hey were here to have some fun...

[BuddyBear]

Okay, 99% of Daggerkobe's posts are stupid but this was actually pretty funny

[seaborneq]

Dagger, you win hands down.

[pavyracer]

Best post/poster of the week. daggerkobe hands down.

[bmw530i]
