This post coming from a poster with a naked woman's as$ as his avatar (in that he'll feel more "masculine" about himself as long as he has pics of females in the nude somewhere close by. It reminds me someone in the 60's with a stack of playboys visible in their basement just to certify they are heterosexual to anyone passing through). And he says IM pathetic.

Good for you Jason. Congrats on the pic it was the right one.

Action I did bet on the Jets game by default with the Bills Team total thread. Didn't want to have any more on it.

Don't worry about it ScaltheGoat. 

This one is gonna stay with me. Give out a winner and the trolls let the thread die just like my penn state Rutgers thread. Give out a loser? The trolls are back to say "Count that loss in his record because he would have counted t if it won!" No one needs this shi*.

And this is what they want. They want brain dead posters or no posts at all so they can all stand around and look at each other, shrug their shoulders and say, "Ah, Covers used to be great. Where did all the posters go?"

They know where they went. The great posters didn't want to catch the Zika Virus of the capping world: Covers Legion of Trolls.

Scal, thoroughly enjoyed reading your responses, especially the police skit haha

I hope these guys aren't stressing you out, I think you are smart enough to know your worth and that cold streaks are inevitable from a pure percentage standpoint. Also, for the few vocal trolls you see after a loss, you have countless others who don't post much but really appreciate your plays behind the scenes, myself included.

I wish I could get you to post your Iowa/Florida pick, but obviously that's entirely your prerogative. Perhaps a hint....does it rhyme with Fryowa? ??

OK, this is really 2 much. I had to write my first post here.

Scal, I've seen so many good tipster who ended really badly after loosing strikes, when people started bashing them...they couldn't handle it, they were worse and worse...and finaly they stopped posting.

I believe they are good tipster again, when they do not post publicly (or they not selling picks anymore).


f... this trolls off...loose time and nerves with them will not bring anyone anything good

only reason why they are posting this is becouse they are enjoying in anger and fight...don't give them that pleasure

cheers

Poor Scalabrine. He spent his Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years on this board talking about various plays. I believe he went a combined 1-5 (officially 1-4, because he actually lost both games on a 2 team parlay) on those plays. With his play on Amanda Nunes being the only winner and that fight actually took place on the 30th. So including that win is a bit of a stretch. 

What a waste of valuable time that a normal, mentally stable person would be spending with their family.

Last post for me. Because I don't want to pile on Scalabrine while he is down. Even though his behavior really brings it upon himself.

I just listened to an interview with Rashad Evans about Ronda Rousey. He said everyone can take the praise and acclamation when they are going good, but a real champion can also take the criticism when they are down. Ronda couldn't and Scalabrine can't either. 

Happy New Year everybody!

I'm gonna go tighten up the caps before I give out another Morphine. At this point you are probably beggin I'm on Iowa so you can fade me with Florida.

Why tighten up the caps you ask? The obvious distractions.

The holidays,

the presents,

the turkey carving (which I like to call the "Roast Beast"),

the looped scenes of Ralphie "being sure to drink is Ovaltine" messing with my head,

the continuous screams of Macauly Culken  after he applies the aftershave on the boob toob,

the flea bitten dogs shitting in the corner near the fireplace,

keeping Uncle Tommy from spiking the egg nog (that person drunk),

the star topping on the Christmas tree on a wobbly ladder that's gonna send me flying out the first floor window like I'm Clark Griswald 2.0,

more gifts than a Jerry Lewis telethon,  

the obscene amount of gift-wrapping,

the Christmas tree chopping (I do it myself with these cold dead capping hands :::cue Moses from the Ten Commandments:::),

10,000 kids flying up and down the stairs like lunatics in a mental ward,

the snow shoveling,

trudging out in the snow to warm up the car and scrape 15 inches of ice off the windshield in subzero weather that would kill of a family of Sasquatches,

the Amazon workers punting my family's Christmas gifts to the front door like he's Jim Carrey from Pet Detective,

dealing with the check out girl at Target (who looked like Amanda Nunes) that would make a sloth get a promotion for speed and accuracy,

the damn parking space being on the other side of mall,

bobbing and weaving through 15,000 people in line for "Santa" on December 24th (at what point is there diminishing returns for standing in that line? Ya bring the picture home and the kid is gonna find the glue and decorate the edges with macaroni pieces and pen strokes anyway.)

ALL THIS AGGRAVATION AND DISTRACTION, and I found a way to give out that Nunes fight. +135. It's incredible. And the Bills Future is a winner if they literally don't take the entire team off the field. I would say the Mods should pay me but I don't want their money! Anyhow, I'm gonna go win 10 in a row (or thereabouts) with undistracted capping and I'll be back to post the 11th.

Merry Christmas!

At this point, how the hell do people lay OVER a FG against the Giants, even in GB?

Saw them beat GB before with a much better team and a legend at QB. We all remember that game!

How does that line open at Giants +5 on 5Dimes? Do the books say, "Let's take liability on the 5 here! We want that against this Giants team!" No ONE is scoring offensive TD's against this team.

McAdoo looks like such a dope but he's doing something right. So right, he won a de facto playoff game with nothing at stake for his team and while he was pulling his players!

And now Washington's pretty much has to pay Cousins over $100 million. After losing to a team that didn't have anything at stake. How do you let him walk? You have to pay him. They may try to pull a Jets and Fitz here but you saw what that did to the Jets in part. A season where they barely missed the playoffs to a season of disaster. Wouldn't take a page from the Jets playbook...

And nothing more. So what does it matter. We are all the "definition of cringe" as you say (something a grammar schooler would be embarrassed to say) .

But seriously, there's nothing to cringe about. I'm just laying out the details of the distractions.

How ironic....

A guy with an avatar of Kim Jong Il.....

giving out orders...

And what the hell is he holding in the picture? A fully eaten corn cob. Wouldn't be surprised he'd carry around such a thing and point it a people either....

Stopped right at those words and dropped to my hands and knees and peered towards the heavens in gratitude.

I'm worried scal will commit suicide when he loses his next few. look at his thin skin, he's become a violent thug because of a few losses. Personally, I hope he doesn't take his life, but you never know with ppl who are mentally unbalanced. GL with your life scal, your skin is too thin it will come back and haunt you.

Well folks, I left GD long ago (for reasons such as this) and the racialized terms can't escape the posters here.

They HAVE to put everything in terms on black and white (because many posters here believe me to be black, because what white person would EVER defend such a race?????). They can't help but use the terminology and the feign ignorance when you call them out (Who me??? YOU'RE the racist!! This is the CLASSIC covers comeback when it comes to this because they have nothing else).

Thanks firesox. You insinuate SUICIDE on someone and then end your post with 'Good Luck'.

Keep your GL. No one wants it from you.

I agree the holidays can be distracting. What was your excuse back on 4/28 when you put your faith in a perennial punching bag like Rex Ryan that he could lead a team of nobodys to 8+ wins?

I've detailed that extensively.

The team was decimated before the season even started.

Even their draft picks were injured. I made the pick before all this. Can I be criticized for the TIMING of the pick? Yes. That is the one criticism I deserve. But I did it because I felt the line would go to 8.5. It went to +120 because the injuries flooded in. Out of my control.

Then you have McCoy missing for what is about 3 games mid season (all losses).

Then you have the missed time out which may send them to 9 wins not 7.

Then you take away the ONE GUY that will DIE before the Jets sweep him in a season.

Then you bench the starting QB.

Then McCoy gets pulled in the first quarter of the game that pushes this bet.

All of this out of my control when I put the bet in a half year ago.

This is a documented series of misfortune to sink a 9 game winner at the very last second.

This is Flutie at Boston College flying up and down the field in utter jubilation.

This is the million dollar case being opened on Deal or No Deal.

This is literally a miracle that Pope Francis would give a hand wave to.

It's all here. In writing. The coach is NOT at fault here. When you bank on NINE wins with a line of 8, you better not have even ONE of the above happen, never mind ALL of it.

Get the ski masks.

Begginerboy:

Did you ever see the BBC documentary on the OJ case?

Although he was guilty imo, there definitely was planted evidence in this case.

The center console: the blood stains could not have been made by OJ's hand in that direction.

See @29:50 and watch 2 minutes worth. See if you agree about planted evidence.

I would take GB -4 and I did, I will probably be wrong because I think the public will pound that line up to as high as 5 to 6 BUT Eli is regressing. He will throw at least one costly INT.

AR is too much for this defense.

My play GB -4

(Don't mind being wrong, but don't think there is any way we win this game).

I was on the Skins as well. Shocking Jekyll and Hyde team. They only needed to win 1 out of 2 home games in December out of the last 3 weeks to get in and couldnt beat a Carolina team already eliminated while playing at home off 3 straight road games on MNF or a Giant team with little to play for. They can't tackle on D and Cousins is just super hot or cold. And you see other teams who have speedy weapons try and get them involved with sweeps and stuff but no, D Jackson didn't sniff a pass last night.

And against my better judgement I also took Detroit and they just couldn't get it done either.

Bleh.
