Usually you cap a game in 12/24 hours so there’s no real time to reassess.

When BeginnerBoy was on the other side with others posting, I started looking into it. Sunday morning I didn’t like what I saw. I made the bet two weeks prior and stayed with it. A “fraud” would keep his unit total the same. I’ll count this as a loss with subtracted Units. Thanks Packers.

Trust me, don't respond to him like he's a normal person. He literally posts crap like "Illuminati controls the NFL so therefore this team will win." The most out of touch with reality poster on the entire forum. People must not have been exposed to this guy much because if they were they wouldn't respond to him like he's normal. He's super looney.

it's like books didn't know new England would win, cuz otherwise a line of 4.5 would Ave drawn more rams action.

The books are not fortune tellers...they arent from the future and know the results...if you really think they do, please dont ever drive a car...stick to the yellow buses you are familiar with

I warned you that you give the linesmakers way too much credit. I'm telling you, that Giants line vs Sanchez was a super steal and they screwed up badly with their line. This stuff isn't very uncommon, they screw up a lot.

The redemption angle is very powerful, Scal, as you know. Almost as much as the revenge angle. When the Pats lost to the Giants a second time, it took another miracle play, so you'd know they'd be ready for this one. Also recall the Spurs redemption series against the Heat. Redemption: it's what western mythology/religion is based on. Perhaps there is no stronger motivation/psychological angle than that.

True true. Ya Live and learn BB.

It was actually the second giants win that had me so thunderstruck and that Pats loss carried over into this game (their capacity to lose a second time around to the same team).

But the literal multiply loaves miracles were there for the Giants, tenfold.

Goff was a broken Magic 8 ball in comparison and I paid the price.

Scal, thanks for the writeup and thoughts. Nothing wrong with changing midways, it actually proves that you are using your brain and not your stomach to bet. In my case it was the opposite way, I decided to bet only half my usual bet on the Pats ML bc there was too much uncertainty, and as the game approached I was not loving that bet. When the game was 3-3, and once we had confirmed that there is something strange going on with Gurley, I pounded them and gladly it went my way.

Gut well done.

I read some things about how much goff has cooled off after the winning streak and it was worse (way worse) than I thought.

Then I got the “Deer in headlights” Goff and failed to buy out.  

Ya live and learn. Games like this actually teach me a lot for the next cap.

Thanks D Town

The books never know the outcome!

They are frigin brokers, they take your money and profit on the vig NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS.

It's a forever profitable business.

Now start handicapping games, get that other crap out of your head. For your own good trust me.

I wouldn’t call it “Great”. “Good” is apropos.

Win or lose, the write-up is always “Good” (and sometimes “Great” even in a loss, but not this one.).

If people here were friends with Thomas Edison we’d still be walking around holding candlesticks.

I can attest to fact,,,that your multi-paragraph write-up's are always “Good” and sometimes “Great” even in a loss..

1And yet I picked PATS and won, and you, SCAL, and lots of other "respected cappers" picked RAMS, and lost.........in what was likely the EASIEST SB to pick since DEN vs CAR.

YUP, I AM THE GUY WHO KNOWS NOTHING, AND YOU ALL ARE THE INFALLIBLE, CONSISTENT WINNERS. RIGHT !!! LMAO.

Lest we forget, Ninja, you are the guy with the "cant-miss" system.......yeah, OKKKKK. Now, you¿re on some other thread talking like you picked the PATS and were helping Achilles defend his PATS pick. You're pretty much a loser. No, I retract. You're a full-fledged loser.

While guys like me, who actually picked the winning side, are counting their cash, you and the rest of Scal's followers can pleasure yourselves while reading Scal's wonderful, dreamy write-ups...........GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.

As for MY write up, I guess it DID pan out, huh ???

Yea nice job it's only one game. You went 1-0 like even a coin flip easily could. . Any fool could just look straight at this game and say I take Brady & Belichick, easy! We outsmarted ourselves, yes. You didn't do anything impressive.

I didn't say you know nothing I said you're looney because you are. What was that stuff you posted about Illuminati 6 + 6 + 6 so Patriots win? So silly I can't even reproduce it

I never claimed I have a can't miss system. I have a 75% system. 7-3 in the playoffs, all 3 losses to the Patriots probably because it doesn't account for coaching and Belichick rules.

Have a nice day.

Dude, I have picked MANY games. More than you have been alive long enough to watch. I see things a lot of these "seasoned" cappers DO NOT even think of. I bet big, so I make money on EAST things like:

 

1) "Mayweather to win against WHOMEVER by decision".

2) Canelo to beat Sugar Shane by decision, because Mosley had NEVER bene KOd and the fight was window-dressing simply to put a legend on Canelo's resumé.

3) I'll Have Another at +800 to win the Kentucky Derby back in 2012, when NO horse had EVER won the Derby coming out of the 19th post. Made a killing on that one.

4) Broncos ML vs Carolina, when the lion's share of Covers fell for the Peyton's noodle arm" rope-a-dope, but did not factor in the fix. Ron Rivera used up all challenges in the 1H. Refs made a bogus call on a catch early, and it led to spotting Denvera quick TD to help them out. Cam refusing to go for his own fumble. A host of non-calls against Denver DBs.

 

I could go on and on. I do ALL sports. If and when you grow hair on your chest, I will openly challenge you to a "capping" contest. My "fixed" mentality vs YOUR infallible guru system. I do soccer, too. But do NOT come at me with Monopoly units like you an Scalabrine "bet". This would be REAL money, and an escrow system would be set up. I am willing to put up 50K anywhere we decide, and with a verifiable link so that ALL of Covers can enter, view and track the contest and picks.

 

What say you? SCAL, you can get some, too. Matter of fact, I am calling out ANYONE on here who thinks they are "good" at this.

Well you can earn respect if you actually start posting your plays frequently next year. As many people can attest to I've been stalking this entire forum and yet I've only ever seen you post this Patriots play. See you next year.

Then by you picking RAMS, I guess that makes YOU a full-fledged idiot, huh? I mean, since it was SO easy....

1) "We outsmarted ourselves"
No, you just tried going beyond your IQ level. Both Scal and you tried to impress all of the idiots on Covers with your systems and write-ups, rather than actually TRY to make money. That is the difference between you and I. I do not try to befriend anyone on this site. I care not what anyone thinks of me, or my stances. You obviously live a very lonely life.

 3)  all 3 losses to the Patriots probably because it doesn't account for coaching and Belichick rules.
AHHHH, so lemme get this straight. You used a system which "doesn't account" for Belichick coaching to..........pick a Patriots game coached by........Belichick.

Lamest excuse I have heard in a while.......YEAH, I'M DONE WITH YA.

Sure, you can call someone that for being wrong on one play. All it does is confirm how idiotic you are. 

0-1 on the superbowl in a season where I shared a 59-21 record.

Boo hoo I'll go cry in a corner now!

One play in which you claim to have bet 25 of those toy Monopoly units....am I right ? So how many Twilight Zone coins did you lose ? Again, quit while you're way behind.

If you want to continue interacting with me, it will cost you 50K. I have posted my challenge, and you failed to respond, or accept. It ends there.

A little simple math for you at 3 units per play. 

59 wins * 3 units = 177 units. 
20 losses * 3 units = 60 units. 
177-60 = +117 units. 
Superbowl loss -25 units. 
117 units - 25 units = +92 units for the season

I warned anyone following not to do what I'm doing and just take it as a vote of confidence in the Rams. I love going big on the Superbowl. Not wise from a pure betting standpoint.

What challenge? I reread your post and still don't see one.
