First, this was not about Sharp, it was about the preseason trend report. But if you want to discuss Sharp:
Not sure where you get "1 good year":
1. In 2007 all computer plays were were posted online and hit 66%.
In 2008 all personal plays thru week 9 were posted online and hit 72%.
2. 2009 the computer hit 56% and all plays together hit 54%. Not too stellar. But when you have 4 terrible weeks, that's what you get.
3. Because all plays hit 54% for 1 year that makes Sharp a "53% capper" for life?
4. Clever way to ignore the fact that for 4 straight years, the computer program hit 65% across over 425+ plays, something I've personally never seen another program do anywhere, EVER!
5. Also for 3 straight years the total of all personal plays are at 59%.
6. All of that includes the fact that last year hit 54% and lowered percentages.
If you can't grasp that every capper won't hit 67% every single year, you haven't bee in this business very long. If a 54% year is the worst year on record that a service has ever had, I'd say they are damn good. Over half the services out there don't beat 54% on their best year. And that was Sharp's worst.
You get off though if you can name one other program that any other service uses that legitimately has hit 65% for 4 straight years...
