Bibendi Special #16 In-Game

money management is the lesson learned at this fork in the road

We've still got the the BULLS in Toronto.
Have a great bowl season!!!!!!

surprised not too see more bashers in here, guess they learned. really can't believe we lost that, the whole game i thought bama was going to win, then the dreaded last 5 minutes came. great call on VT, not sure why everyone was on BC. if they get into that matchup  vs. uconn i really like VT

The Cover police have been locking people up for bashing, otherwise you'd be seeing a lot more bashing going on! That's the nature of the game. I would win people tons of money and they would either:

1. Forget about all that once I lost a game.

2. Get too confident, load up on one of my picks, and then rip me if it lost.

That's why it's not a great idea to write a book on why you should play a certain team. If they cover, the whole world loves you. If they don't, then you are not liked. I've been there. That's why I don't post a lot of my picks and why I started laying low this year, despite hitting the same percentage that Bibendi is hitting. (all documented)

 

Just writing a book trying to help people. They can take my write-up however they want. I truly believe I was on the right side today though. Honestly, yeah lost a big one. Confidence hurt? Not at all. We were winning late in the game and Florida scored 2 late touchdowns for the only possibly chance to cover. You can leave my forum's ball_picker, originally I thought you were a productive member, but you havent posted anything constructive in weeks. You come in either mentioning dizzle or mentioning how you think I'm in above my head. Peace out brother. I'll keep picking the right side while you critisizing.

I was on Florida from the beginning, but thought -10 was maybe too much. You're right Bibendi, Bama was the right pick.

Bama was tough and John Parker Wilson had a good game. You can't blame him. Florida, even without Harvin was just a bit better. It sure looked like Bama had punched them in the mouth in the 3rd quarter and were going to win it. But Tebow kept coming, that facemask penalty might have been the killer, and the Florida D got it together in the 4th. Tough ATS loss by one point for Bama backers.

What are your early thoughts about FL vs OK?

Line will probably be FL -3?

I say 45-41, but not sure who. Don't see either defense stopping either offense.

BB tough loss we should of covered, tks for oak, vt, ball st over etc, etc, etc. keep up the good work, you don't need me to comment any more. tks

Hey bib, tough one man, like a jackass i went with my gut and ended up on the opposite side of you for ull, buff, and vt only one i disagreed with you on and won was this fla game and that was almost more luck than anything else. Don't let the few haters in here overtake the many of us who made a lot of money this season tailing your picks. Thanks for a great season!

Tough loss Bibendi, but its like they say. You cant win them all right? Im sure you are still up for the year and will keep crankin out winners. Good Luck with your bowl picks

I'm not criticizing, bibendi. That was more of advice, or the fact that I've done what the same thing before. That's all I'm saying. I understand your write ups and I enjoy them, but you understand that there are serious degenerate gamblers out there who will drop all of their money on some guy's pick because he's been on fire? I know that's not really your problem, but it can be dangerous if you give out too much personal information. Sounds crazy but it's true. I did tout work for a huge site a few years ago and that's the year I went 72%, overall. BUT, when I had my one losing week, I got emails from assholes that cursed me out and threatened me. That's why I used a total alias on the site and didn't give my location. Most people don't know money management.

Basically, I didn't want you to get in over your head. When you write a book as to why to take a certain team, dumb asses are going to be like "Shit. This guy is right! And he's on fire! I can double my paycheck on this game." --- If you hit, they love you like crazy.......until you lose. That's the nature of the business. That's really all I was saying. As far as my  ONE dizzle comment: That was totally sarcastic and I even put the emoticon after it so you knew it was sarcasm. Only reason I wrote it is because I knew some dipshits would come in and post it if you lost on Bama. I have not tailed one single pick of his all season, although I can admit that my bankroll would be much larger if I did.

Ball Picker wasn't hating, Bib. What he said in clarification was exactly how I took his original reply. It's just sage advice.
