Some of your truly are tools. I tailed him too as he's an excellent capper with excellent knowledge on some nba teams and what I did is not be a dick and put half my bankroll on it. Then I lost it like a man

I joined this forum yesterday.

I read some topics but this topic, written by you Scalabrine, was mesmerizing.

I'm from Europe, Belgium so we don't have any affinity with NBA. I read your article and after it I had the feeling that I followed Bucks and Pistons for a whole season.So much detail and passion in your writing!

I truly believed pistons had to win this game, but I didn't follow you blindwise. I played handicap -3.5 Detroit because I agreed with most of your arguments, but still...the Bucks f*cked me several times.

It's a disease, people who like easy, lazy money. It's like they walk towards Wall Street and believe without having any analytical judgement they're going to be the next Sykes or Buffet.

Keep up your writing because for the people who are betting for real profits instead of quick money...you're topic was a real help!

Thank you

I read all your comments. Thanks for the support to those who offered it.

If Vegas wants to set it lines based on multiple offensive rebounds and turnovers on inbounds plays, they can go right ahead. I will have what I need in the long run.

Gonna take a break

Maybe for the rest of the year. Can't be on this site right now.

To watch this Knicks game, my team, just breeze to another win in the game I wanted to write up but got fancy with the fuc kface Pistons and bucks is too much.

Too many people lost too much money in the worst way possible.

Goodbye and thanks.

Yo man we all a bunch of grown behind men that can make decisions for ourselves. We all knew we were betting on a shitty team i mean the reason we took them is because they lost to phili. That right offf the bat shows you how craaap this team is lol C'mon son! No one forced anyone to make that bet. I didn't feel comfortable laying 7 pts so i didn't. Too much juice for ML. But the point is, i made a decision of my own.

Scal, do not let these A holes get to you. If people do not like tailing and losing, then do not tail anymore and make your own picks. its that simple. but you know why that will not happen??? bc most people on here do not have the balls to make their own picks and decisions. its easy to tail someone then blame them for the loss. if your too insecure to make your own picks, then stop gambling and you shouldnt be gambling if you can not afford to lose anyways. makes me sick. I hope Scal keeps posting because I'm sure he'll hit a winner much sooner than later.

It took me a while to realize this but the best cappers, like the best athletes, have to have a short memory in order to succeed. I've missed on many opportunities because I dwelled on a bad beat.

Scal, I believe your Detroit picks was right on. Many can critic you and made nasty comments but at the end they choose to go with your pick then give you sht if game turns bad or praise you if game turns as you predicted.

I am pretty sure all of us here take your information and make up our minds after all we are grown men. So all the cheerleaders out there relax and don’t blame other for your poor judgment.

Decision time should or should not follow SCAL input on the game?? That is your choice!!!

So stop your complaining and let them man post his inside on the game he feels strong about.

Scal I was mad cause I lost but dont blame yourself for others losing..they have their own brains or maybe they dont...the only thing I will say is when these mindless people read these long write ups they assume its going to be a win.. like you have the mcfly sports almanac...haha.. just say short and sweer I like this team.. let these lazy a s s people do their own homework... most of them cant name five players on the team or the if they won or loss the night before... scal its not your job to make these lazy a s s people money.. so quit blaming yourself... keep your chin up..

Is that a joke? How can one loss be such a BIG deal? Betting should be a marathon not a sprint. If one single bet gets such a huge "collective suicide" mentality its not a betting, but gambling. And if you want to gamble go to casino and take red, or black or my personal fav. nr 13

Thank you

Totally agree with him! I'm also from Belgium and truly enjoyed reading every letter of your posts and almost the whole topic. It not only made me richer (i played detroit -2.5, so I made my own choise based on your writings), but most of all it made me smarter and wiser, and this has no price imo.

I understand your dissapointment, and I probably also would have blame you if i had lost my bet (because 1k is a lot of money lol), but that wouldn't have been fair, since it would have been an emotional reaction and not a rational one. So don't be swayed by the many emotional reactions and continue to play your own game! After all, there will always be haters...

Good luck for the future and again, big THANKS

Wow, you guys from Belgium really know your English. Half the posters here can't differentiate there from their!

As far as why everyone is continuing to post here, Train, well that is because we lost a lot more than money. We lost some of our dignity and humanity here, and along with it our friend, Scal; a man whose wit, wisdom, and understanding cannot be duplicated by anyone.
