    @Suuma, then that means (barring recor inflation) that he is 17-5 in NBA/College Basketball, and if you are interested in those sports you should tail him because he's hitting an ungodly 71%. I tend to err on the side of skepticism and have often checked up on people's supposed records.

    This...this right here.  If I could get everyone to look at these statements then you would see what is wrong with people today and society at large!  You disagree with something so you rant and rave about it, and "call bullsh*t", but instead of actually providing proof or a counterpoint you self-proclaim that you are too lazy to do so.  My god you should work in the press...don't let the facts get in the way of a good story, right?

    I don't know if your screen name is satirical or not, but did you see the one about big bro Ben trying to censor his slave-owner ancestry?

    My personal favourite part was the subtle fist-pump as it's announced he is the descendant of a patriot.  You can't make this stuff up folks.  Fitting screen name nonetheless though CaseyAffleck.

    And let me plant seeds of doubt because Covers does not have Official record keeping and people have to keep their own record.
    He writes "UPON REVIEW".

    Upon what review? HIS review??? With no evidence whatsoever! It's just "His Review".

    Well by golly, no reason to not trust HIS review!!

    Go look at any thread you want and post a SINGLE THREAD where there is an aberration from post to post.


    Just one. Porcelain come back to the thread and post one thread where there is an inconsistency in YOUR review.

    "barring record inflation"

    Wow, Porcelain you are a piece of work.

    If I was going tout I'd inflate my record. I said a billion times I post here and nowhere else and have no interest whatsoever in that. Why? Because I can make tout money OFF MY OWN PICKS BY PLAYING THEM! I don't need your subscriber money. I play my own picks for profit and that more than serves me well (and I tail Suuma, beginnerboy and one or two other guys I trust but that's it).

    Thanks dcp.

    Why don't you keep your basketball record separate from football? Some probably find it confusing, as you aren't hitting your football picks anywhere near as consistent as your bball

    Yes so they know my record with everything I post as official bets (except for exotics like hot dogs pro wrestling and politics since + and - ML can't be put into straight WL bets without units which I also don't use because I don't want anyone accusing me of Martingaling my bets, which they would).

    I'm actually the best in NFL and CFB. Ask anyone here who has made a shi*load of money off me in both forums. ASK THEM.

    Sorry to chop up your post my friend. Take this FWIW. I am a Capper myself. For 30+ years I haven't tailed anyone. This year in addition to my own plays I follow you and a WIP radio host whose nickname is "Jolly." He's also having a great year and he also was 0-1 yesterday with CLEVE.

    Scal in adition to your games Saturday I had a few Winners. BUT.... I also had Notre Dame +17.5 when the idiot Kelly went for 2 Because after (the converted DUECE he used in order to crap on ND backer's heads) he was going to..... recover 2 onsides kicks and score 2 more TDs and 2 more Dueces -- all in the final seconds, and Utah +11 which had to overcome a phony PI 7 point gift to Colorado late in the 3Q. But while THAT was all going on I lost UNDER 208.5 in the NYK-CHAR game that was 106-102 bkz the ref called a foul with 0.5 seconds left after a missed Mello shot while 10 players were just standing there waiting to leave.

    So what's the point?

    Scal, in this business your mindset has to be like Belichick when the reporters are haranguing him. "Onto Cincinnati." "Onto Seattle."

    Everyday is a new battle.....Between you, the guys who make the line, and the other guys who move the line. If your models show value at the opener or after others have moved a number too far, then you invest.

    Yes you adjust methods based upon events that happen during the seasons in each sport. But you never let your emotions completely alter your methods as you are doing here. That's how you miss the next 6-1 streak.

    Best I can tell you Scal...... Stop trying to prove yourself to Covers trolls. You already have to those who matter. You don't need lengthy write-ups, just a few reasons that support your investment.

     Pick Winners. Post. Collect more often then pay! Assume winning 64-68 out of every hundred Plays WILL INCLUDE a couple of 0-4 variations. BUT....Take your EMOTIONS out of your GAMBLE! Best of Luck!

    Thanks Scott. I shoot for 70% with such low volume so 1-3 weekends are unacceptable. I had Arkansas capped from top to bottom over and under through and though and when I lose a game like that, it's a kick in the nuts. Very tough to swallow. SJS with the rain was crushing to watch. Like my hand was in a vice. New Mexico in the rain? No problem. #1 rushing attack in the FBS. SJS doesn't even have a true running back to deal with that. I just couldn't believe Potter couldn't throw a pass as good as a high schooler in the rain. It was like he was playing hot potato instead of football. Awful.

    But your advice is sound and I appreciate it.

    Thanks jbis. I should have capped them even more when I had Hazell on board. What a shame that they let him go for capping sake.

    If they bring Les Miles in, I'd be very interested to see how these players respond early because right now they can't even tackle properly (amazing for a Power 5).

    Thanks KC. I am already capping one CFB game. I'll put everything I have into that one and post as usual. So far it looks good and virtually  everyone is healthy on both sides so no speculation like this JPP debacle. That makes for a "clean" cap.

    Scal, IMO you are the best capper on this site. I really hope this doesn't deter you from future write-ups or posts. Sometimes, I'll come on covers just to see if you've posted something. TBH, even if you don't have a definitive pick, I wish you'd do more write-ups analyzing games. Not sure what you'd get out of it other than grown behind men stroking your ego though lol.

    I think I bet Cleveland too many times except this week.  They play hard but they have no talent.  Joe Thomas, Pryor, and Haden are all they have and the rest are JV players.

    Scal keep the writeups just the same. Most really enjoy them. I know I do. Win or lose nobody can ever say u haven't capped the game through and through. The haters will always be here. Even if u win 100 in a row there will be the haters bashing each game before and then waiting on you to lose the one. Keep doing u brother. Never change who you are because your not the problem.

    Don't take it personally. These teams weren't out to crush YOU.

    Things can and do go wrong.

    70% is a tough goal. That's like starting now and trying to bang every chick Leo DiCaprio has, all in the next 5 years.

    A 86-60 record over 2 years WILL make you money, true.
    But a 400-250 record, a much lower percentage over the same time period, will make you a lot more money!
    70% is a lofty goal. Again, whatever you decide I wish you much $ucce$$.

    Meant to write 146-60 above but typed 86-60 instead. Don't know how to edit posts.
