    He's having fun and his "phone call or sharp" headlines is his way of lashing back at the haters. I do feel he genuinely gives his own thoughts on games which is why I respect him, win or loss.

    Many people just put down Bama -14 OR -14.5, BAMA LARGEEE, and even though they won by double that, they still get NO respect because I ACTUALLY WANT TO READ SOME INSIGHT ON WHY THAT IS THE SIDE TO PLAY.

    If you're just putting down team A -3 or team B +3 LARGE,  you're better off playing video games than participating in a sports gambling forum because you're helping NOBODY.

    Missouri was obviously the right side, the fact they couldn't defend better and score more is a massive bad beat, scal is so unlucky!

    One of the most important factors though in his threads, his thoughts actually spark healthy discussions and debates about the actual game he bet on.

    That's the whole point this forum exists. There was some actual decent discussions about this game which really does help people make a decision on who to back. I just don't like the fact he gets torn apart after a loss like he does.

    You really think it's fantasy?

    And who are you to say that? Because it lost? What if it won?

    Does the write-up I transcribed look like I wrote it given I have over a hundred detailed write-ups on this site? (i.e., Using the words 'psycho' is an obvious example. I simply don't speak or write like that.).

    If you think I played a game here and couldn't pick my own game, you are severely misguided, like most of the posters here. And to accuse someone of it, based on what exactly?

    Have a good one (and fix the part of your character that calls someone out without a shred of evidence).

    You really think it's fantasy?

    And who are you to say that? Because it lost? What if it won?

    Does the write-up I transcribed look like I wrote it given I have over a hundred detailed write-ups on this site? (i.e., Using the words 'psycho' is an obvious example. I simply don't speak or write like that.).

    If you think I played a game here and couldn't pick my own game, you are severely misguided, like most of the posters here. And to accuse someone of it, based on what exactly?

    Have a good one (and fix the part of your character that calls someone out without a shred of evidence).

    If you're just putting down team A -3 or team B +3 LARGE,  you're better off playing video games than participating in a sports gambling forum because you're helping NOBODY.



    EXACTLY.

    Damn, this site has hope after all!!

    I passed info along. I played it myself and told others to play or fade based on the write-up from the guy I know and trust.

I thought to myself this guy has no idea what hes talking about and took alabama -14 ..bought a half point cus i was a lil nervous. ILL NEVER LISTEN TO SCAL AGAIN. not because his pick was wrong. Just because he tries to tell you its a 100% lock and that pisses me off. I got a call. FOH

    1) Bama's offense has been significantly less productive at non-home games. This is because Lane Kiffin has been helping Sims read defensive vulnerabilities before the snap at home and can easily communicate those reads when the home crowd is silent for them. On the road, Sims has looked much more lost during drives. 

    WRONG


    2) Mizzou has made a nice little season for itself out of overlooked. My guess is that, after beating Auburn in a sweaty, intense Iron Bowl, Bama will have a significant drop in emotional intensity for at least the first quarter.

    WRONG


    3) Mizzou has an excellent pass rush with their DE's. Sending Amari Cooper deep to torch single coverage is fun, but Sims will need 3 seconds or so to see if he beat the coverage. In that time, I think the pocket will be collapsing on him, and Bama will lose the big play passes that more or less was the source of about 21 points against Auburn. WRONG


    4) Alabama's secondary was exposed against Auburn. Anytime that Nick Marshall throws for 450 yards against you, you have a coverage problem. Coates beat his man routinely in that game, leading to multiple gigantic TD's. Mizzou will be looking to exploit the same weakness, and Bama may overcompensate, making running the ball easier as they reinforce the CB’s. WRONG


    5) Bama doesn't deserve to be giving 14 points to hardly anyone this year. They have a consistency problem, and while Lane Kiffin's exceptional offensive strategy has largely covered over the variance, Bama hasn't played a full game this year. LSU, Miss. St., Arkansas, Auburn. All wins, all by less than 14, all choppy, unnecessarily dangerous games that could've been lost. In other words, Bama could easily be 8-4 right now instead of 11-1. Their record is misleading as to their dominance. WRONG


    6) Alabama's FG kicker, Griffith, has been a psycho for weeks now. I expected him to have cost us a game by now, but since he hasn't, this looks like a good spot as any for it. He flat out cannot be trusted to be consistent in clutch spots in big games. If Bama is forced to settle for FG's, he will bleed points for them. WRONG


    I'll add more: Bama ATS this year? A horrendous 4-8 and that includes and OT cover of -6.5 over LSU where, one of the biggest mooses of the season for LSU backers. WRONG


    Also, people look at Mizzou and say, "THEY GOT BEAT by Indiana!"  I followed Indiana all year. That was a completely different team. A bad loss no doubt but nowhere near as bad a loss if it were the current Indiana team. WRONG

And no if your wager would have won it would  diminish the obvious. B.S. always walks its own path on this site.

    But did you have any counter to them before the game? That's the definition of troll and coward.

    @ryan - I tailed a guy and lost? Who here actually thinks I put the time and energy into masquerading as 'Bama guy I know' when I have 100+ write-ups on this site with my own signature at the bottom....

    Look at the writing style and vocabulary selection of the OP. That is clearly someone else. I transcribed the pick via phone call. It lost. What can I say? I trust the guy.

    See i told you, excuses, excuses and now we have a imaginary friend that makes excuses.

      Theres a deeper psychological component to Scal here,  the losses are never his, now its the other fantasy guy making excuses,  "Bama guy did want to say this though:
    Dammit. That coc*sucking DE who got ejected in the second quarter fu*ked me so completely. I can't believe this shi*.

    So now since its a loss Scal was only passing us along the other guys pick, its not Scals.  HOWEVER if Scal wins, its his pick because of his skillful analysis and expert handicapping.   everyone like Snowman is just some dumb kid in Scals urine pool.   Do you even bet money Scal?  or is this just a fantasy land to you. 
      I would bet large money if we examined Scals real life it would be unaccomplished, career, education, probably inherited money or no money at all.  Nothing ever quite getting finished to success because of someone elses shortcomings, parents, dumb teachers that just didnt understand him.   You are a case study Scal,  fascinating.     I dont usually get too deep here on internet but its interesting how Scals brain works in this predictable fashion

    There was a very good counter for the points.... Not made by him but it doesn't matter.

    Scallywagon just admit you have no idea what you are doing at all once so ever. You waste time and energy plus hard earned dollars on gambling with no return on investment. Gambling is a disease. You gotta give it up, hang em up, as Worm famously says, "When the moneys gone its time to move on."
