Subway Manager:  "I am going to order 500 pounds of turkey, 100 sub rolls, and I am dropping a bomb on Mayo - 1,000 tubs!"

Subway Employee "Sir, but the special this month is ham and we sell an average of 40 turkey subs a day and you don't have enough rolls and way too much mayo and turkey."

Subway Manager:  "I am living the dream of every subway manager!  Nobody will tell me how to operate my subway!!  I order what I want, sell what I want, and do what I want!"

The guy has no clue what the goal is, and no plan how to get there.  It is randomness on randomness on randomness.  At first - I was under the impression that he could handicap picks - but now I am pretty sure that is random too.  The empire couldn't be farther from professional.

He clearly stated in his post above that he was betting these RIGHT NOW to GET IT OVER WITH so he doesn't have to worry about it later.

Doesn't every professional do it this way?

Outside of what CG calls the members of his "organization", what the heII are the "ASSBLOWS"??  

I love Subway Mayo.  So good for me, I mean so good.

Cashner was mediocre away from Petco last year.  McCarthy at home was like a run better (fip & xfip) than Cashner was on the road.

Subway is not good.

Every meat on their menu as a sandwich component is a derivative of pressed turkey and chicken, except for the chipped beef that is used in the cheesesteak sandwiches. God only knows what that stuff is.

I see a lot of ppl telling me how to run things again. I'll tell u what.. Quit ur job, move to Vegas, then give me ur advice. Until u do that then stfu. I run my operation exactly how I please to. Sure I got in a hole but my last two 4K college bomb plays have delivered and I have cut just under 6K off my deficit still even with a horrid NBA run

Tsw, do you document your baseball plays? I don't make pregame plays or tail people, but I'd be very, very curious to see how you do over the course of a season. (call it a case study of sorts)

You seem to be one of the few on here that can provide actual, solid analysis. Sounds like baseball is your sport.

Managers juggle their lineups all the time, check some teams lineups vs a righty compared to a lefty- can be night and day.  Every position matters to me.

Maybe if you chugged more water, I mean Bud Light, we'd all be too impressed to share our opinions?

I need lots of improvement in documenting and going back and reviewing plays.  I'll do it this baseball season.  Thanks man.

Yes, I don't understand why anyone wants to give you advice. You doing great on your own, down $6k.

Equivalent:

Random Poster:  CG, your house is on fire.  I see you are trying to put it out with gasoline.  I don't think that will work.  You probably want to try water instead, and maybe call the Fire Department.  Those things have been proven to work in the past.

CG:  Listen, until you set YOUR house on fire, STFU and don't tell me how to put mine out.  Now pass the GC -- Gas Can.

You make it sound like your what your doing is equivalent to battling insurgents in Afghanistan as in, "Until you are on the battlefield, STFU with your advice."

This is sports betting. Anyone in the world can place bets in 2015 from a phone or PC.

We don't have to quit our jobs or move to Vegas to cap games or place bets.

That is why you have received so much (now disregarded) advice.

Because we are all doing the exact same thing you are right now! We just chose not to uproot ourselves to do so.

Baltimore Orioles (+111) $1000/$1110

Birds are going for the sweep.. Rays will have no1 in attendance again and have a horrid lineup. my three bets today and riding winning streaks..

Toronto BLOW JAYS (+118) $1000/$1180

The yanks lineup is a disgrace.. what a horrible team they should be this year..  Dickey should have his knuckler working well today and the Blow Jay bats are very dangerous

San Diego Padres (+121) $1000/$1210

Big pitching advantage to the Priests here in my opinion.  McCarthy has been shitt his whole career... I feel he got lucky with the yanks towards the end of last season... he was horrid during spring training and don't expect him to just turn it on all of a sudden.  The PRIESTS have a new lineup and are excited to try and have a big year.. Cashner is a stud also.. big pitching edge to the Priests here

getting all three at nice prices also why I locked in early. smart to bet dogs early in the season.. there is really no reason why these three shouldn't be favored so u can obviously see the value

 

 

Love the new color scheme and nicknames (blowjays etc).

Also like how you capitalize "LIVE DOGS".  Kind of like yelling out something with a catchy name will make it true.

"smart to bet dogs early in the season" - based on what?  Do you have some evidence of this?  Do dogs do better earlier in the season than later?  Do you just say these things because they sound good and you are practicing for your next career as a tout?

Just trying to get caught up: have k plays always been bombs?  At one point they were just called k plays, right?  It's so hard to keep everything straight.  I apologize if this has been previously discussed.

Good to see you following mine and the Gooses strategy on dogs in baseball.  I can't say I've ever bet 3 in one day before, but live dogs can be profitable in baseball

im ready for a huge bases year.. solid 2-1 start... ill be 4-2 or 5-1 by tonights conclusion

I gurantee 2-1 or 3-0 tonight

my last gurantee was my wiscy +5.5 (-110) $4400/$4000 winner in which I said it was a rare case of WTF- wrong team favored

 


Guess ya didn't click on the link he posted (why would you? It may have been 'advice related'!)

He was only asking because a guy at the M casino shot himself while inside because of lifetime buffet privileges being revoked...sorta like how you are shooting yourself in the (what might be, if ya keep this crap up) soon to be shoeless foot.
