I have been offered gifts. let someone here speak up and say i've ever accepted anything. I've never accepted any money or gifts for any of my picks. 67% this year and well over +30 units. I do not need anyone's hard earned cash. I do just fine. my only goal then, now and in the future is to help others turn a little profit on their hobby. to many, this is a hobby. to me, it is my job.

A toast to your classy style my friend

hope to hear from you PEACE!

Ax,

Never post, but felt the need to say I found you recently and have enjoyed your class, insight and approach to capping. Sorry to see you may be going underground. Best of luck!

I remember the dog poop post... and I remember thinking to myself I wish I lived close to Boston. Haha.

Damn Chump, why you stealing my play? I swear, my book always leaves me a hook short. 192.5 when I got it early this morning.

And another thing ... recently you said to me "Chump, I'll give you a winner if you come and clean the winter poop out of my backyard left by my five dog" ... so don't say you never asked for anything !!!

Let's get started on the NCAA tourney ... lot of work to do ... I'll pull an all-nighter with you along with the others here that respect you as a capper, a person and a friend !!!

In your absence ... the Cavs / Orl under 193 looks like the play tonight !!!!!!!!!!

Chump, why did WBA get boxed? I haven't been in his thread for a while. I just heard that he was boxed.

Shmoe ... I usually make a play or two at midnight when the lines come out ... after some research I might buy off a game but if my "gut" was right I bought a good number !!!

I have no idea why WillBet has been boxed ... I guess Pete Rose is in jail with him ............

And for NCAAB, they don't release totals until 2 hours before the game. What a load of crap...

Which leads to the question why I stick with them... -105 juice on all NBA and NCAAB. Also, sick payin bonuses if I ever have to payin.

I think I've only posted a couple of times in these threads, but I just wanted to Thank you Ax. I think many of us find your insight helpful. If it's not a hassle, I would appreciate being included in your future capping prognostications. Every day has been a college course, so I hope one day, I can understand 10% of what you can.

"Class Act"
I've seen this several times in Ax's thread.
Why? because.....

1) He's a humble man. Always shines the light on others when winning. It goes to show that he's got plenty of love and respect from his immediate family and friends, and sharing the love is automatic to him.

2) Takes time to respond to every one of the post in his thread.
Heck, would you? It's quite time consuming. He volunteered his time to respond so that people don't feel ignored or left out. (just my opinion)

3) considerate of others. ie... people who might still be wagering goats. Being mindful not to offend anyone. Always trying to keep the peace in his thread.

4) A great US Marine.

5) hates touts and bookies, need I say more?

Put yourself in his shoes. Why would you still wanna post and share picks with jerk-offs who discredit and trash your efforts. Why let them still benefit from your work??? An answer would be much appreciated, here.

Hey Ax, I've been following your picks for awhile and I apppreciated all the hard work you put in to give us your POD. And I'm also looking forward to your MLB opinion too as the season about to come. If it possible, I would love to have you add me to your buddy's list. If not I fully understand, no hard feeling. Your're a class act man. BOL to you and your family

Ax, please choose me.....you guys are fuckin' hilarious. It's not about handicapping, it's about money management. A monkey can pick games just as good as your precious Ax. Everyone gets hot and cold, it's about knowing when to put your foot to the metal, and when to back off. You guys are like a bunch of sheep being lead to the slaughter, except lucky for you, the Ax man disappeared....saving you a pile of money on is current cold streak.

Here's an under for you Wash St under 120. now you guys can all pile on me.......LOL.

I have respect for what you've done at covers, but this is pathetic. The world is full of hate, get over it...or get run over by it.

one lost yesterday is a cold streak?

After a closer inspection, I believe the chic in your avatar has bigger ball-sacs than you do.

We would like to "pile" some steamy, smelly, brown stuff on you, though.

To the haters! I love you man and I'm sorry your life is so miserable.

Ax out for good!

Man, sorry to see u go, bro !

Best of Luck !

BOL Ax. Not a regular poster on your thread, but do enjoy reading your thoughts and insights. Hope you can once again post on Covers without being haggled. If at all possible, let me know your new handle as well so I can look for your thoughts and insights in the future.

Hey AX... I'm one of the guys you were talking about who used to spend a lot of money buying horrible picks for the last couple years (and getting killed) and have turned it around after listening to you the last few weeks. I'm very appreciative and love your thread. I would love to keep hearing your thoughts and incite so I hope I can be included. Thanks again for the last few weeks!!

I honestly hate people who talk shit like they know what they're talking about but have no idea the kind of garbage that is coming out of their mouth.

Please, back up your words by showing us some monkeys that can win over 66% of the time after 110 games.
