I just laugh at the fact that making a play on MIAMI OHIO -7.5 at 2H is the most SHIT PICK ever.
Dude, I DO see where you are coming from.
However, you take what I said out of context. I was responding to the original poster's actual words.
He said fuck this guy, fuck that guy, fuck everyone for his loss. Then he brings some "higher power" dumb-shit comment into the mix? Seriously?
I was struck NOT by the fact that he lost, but that he was so clueless as to why.
When I lose, I blame my pick. My exact thoughts when I make a bad pick are "SHIT PICK". I do not blame the fumbling QB, the bumbling Coach, the inept Refs. I blame myself. I dissect my pick and try to figure out why it was a loser. Nobody puts a gun to anyone's head and forces them to make a bad bet.
Seriously, are you really going to tell me that it's smart to deny personal responsibility for one's losses? I accept full responsibility for every single one of my losses, and strive to do better. There is NO WAY to improve one's handicapping if you're stuck in BLAME-LAND!
The original poster's post was one of the most stupid posts I've ever seen. I'm sorry he lost. I'm not sorry for what I said because if you understand what I've been trying to say, and if you have any reasonable intelligence whatsoever, you will know that even though you don't like what I said, it is absolutely true.
You can laugh at my 2nd H Mia OH bet if you like, I didn't laugh. I was really mad - AT MYSELF! That's how I keep my edge. Like I keep saying over and over and over, BLAME YOURSELF ONLY for bad picks. You aren't going to learn anything at all blaming everyone else and then even putting out there a thread "FUCK THE WORLD"!
I do feel sorry for the guy's loss, but not sorry for his stupid attitude.
I know you think I'm an asshole for saying what was absolutely true, but I call things what they are.
I think you're an ASSHOLE for continuing to harp on this thing when I've explained myself very intelligently and truthfully.
How do you like them apples, ASSHOLE?
