Let me start off by telling you a little bit about me first.  After you get to know the details of my life you should be rather confident fading me.  It's been a tough season for me thus far which is pretty much indicative of my life. 

BIO:
I'm 27 years old and live in a 55 and older community with my grand parents, located in south Florida, for the better part of the last decade.  I'm unemployed and have been for 4 years with little to no promise of achieving success in this life.

MISSION STATEMENT:
The little joy I do squeeze out of life comes on Saturday mornings just before a full day of college football starts.  Promise is in the air.  It's in these moments that all is possible.  I'll sweep the board and win a few dimes and life's hurdles will be jumped in just a few short hours, problems solved,  a quick fix, but inevitably I always lose.  The big bounce always seems to go the other way, so I figure why not share my picks with fellow gamblers who can turn my bad fortune into good fortune for themselves.

DISCLAIMER:

Any of you who use Betjamaica know that they offer a free contest every week called the pick 15.  I did go 11-4 last week but of course no real money was wagered on any of those games so don't read too much into that.  Only fade me when real money is wagered and those will be the only picks I will post.

4 of the 8 losses were on faves of 7 or less and the fave won out right... 2 of the losses came on FSU who led by double digits in the second half and lost outright including blowing the 2nd half bet by not converting from inside the 5 yard line to end the game.

Man, you have got to pick yourself up and dust yourself off. Don't be so hard on yourself, nobody said life was going to be easy, just got to roll with the punches, hang in there and good luck. (I promise you things will get better, look skyward for your SALVATION.)

self-deprecating humor

Many people have made a living out of it!  Rodney Dangerfield, Chris Farley, etc.!
