What stats sites do you use?

[TTinCO]

Since I can't mention a "particular one", I was wondering what sites people currently use.

[Fishhead]

VEGAS INSIDER- GREAT FOR BASES AND EASY TO READ.

[codeworks]

www.covers.com (http://www.covers.com)

[TTinCO]

Code, do you really think that qualifies?

That's lowering the bar pretty damn low.....especially if you've ever used a REAL one. http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[codeworks]

Honestly for the casual "no time" office bet, well yes.

I go there, run the numbers and POW place the losing bet http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[TTinCO]

Lol Code....you sound like me in high school when past scores were the extent of my capping!

REAL RESEARCH (http://www.majorstats.com/index.php?league=bsball&type=scoreboard)

[jjgold]

covers is good but Tico's link could actually take over as the number one gambling stat service in the world very very soon

[suetoneous]

This is two attempts now by TtinCo (what's a TtinCo?) to plug this particular site. I must admit, I did bookmark it. But I can't help but think this dude has a financial stake in it. Why shill it twice... in two separate threads?

[TTinCO]

Suet, I'd actually like to see how it compares to what people are currently using.

(and I am less than a big baseball fan...time to start prepping for foots)

p.s. Initials & homestate

[suetoneous]

TT in Co (colorado).I got it. Personally, I think the site you're plugging is better than "Sportsnetwork," which is the stats. site I use. But I'll have to use for a few weeks to be certain.

TAB Sportsbook... Anyone use them? USA citizens ok?

[TTinCO]

Suet, I don't know what this TAB is....looks like it's just a portal to Intertops, Sportingbet, BML (BAD!!!!!) & some poker sites.

Here's a classic from their site.....

This is the link I got:
www.sportstab.com.au/ (http://www.sportstab.com.au/)

[David Matthews]

I'm guessing TTinCO has some interest in the website whether it's financial or he's just friends with the people running it. I noticed the multiple plugs already too.

It's a nice looking site though.

David

[TTinCO]

Suet....they are apparently one of the BIG Aussie books. It has been posted (June '02) that they took a $450,000AUD play on Brazil to make it to the world cup final.

Big pockets or big balls....not sure which.

The bad news....Residents of the United States of America and from the 31st May 2002 - Hong Kong, cannot be accepted as Telephone or Internet customers by TAB Limited.

TTinco,
Wouldn't it be more nobel to come clean and state your agenda upfront?

Both of your threads today are really about the same thing, no?

[Railbird]

stats are for geeks that dont know how to handicap

[TTinCO]

Lander, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what site I'm talking about.

How many people use stats sites?
What are the good ones?
How does Mstats compare?

Are these not fair questions?

[TTinCO]

Okay Rail....I have to bite.

What (besides inside info) DO you use to handicap?

http://www.therx.com/forum/grem/bowdown.gif

[lander]

Ok TTinCO,
Obviously I'm an idiot and you haven't started two topics that both promote Major's new service ...

... at least be a man and admit it. http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

PS, WHAT EVER YOU DO, AVOID BML SPORTShttp://www.therx.com/forum/grem/1053174822.gif LIKE THE PLAGUE

[TTinCO]

Lander, I titled the 1st thread the name of the site I was talking about. WTF WAS I TRYING TO HIDE?

It was put in the promo section...questionable move, but maybe the title was a bit much-So I brought it up in what I expected to be a "better tolerated" way.

Probably 90% of the posters read both sites-It's not like it is breaking news. I wanted to hear what people over here thought of it. Is it that good, or are their better out there?

VI was the only "real" one that I was aware of....figured that their had to be some other pretty comprehensive databases out there-but maybe not. (As #1cheat finally comes through)

[RPM]

WHY ARE SO MANY MAJORWAGER REGULARS TRYING TO SHILL THAT SITE OVER HERE?

IS MW THAT HARD UP FOR TRAFFIC????

its really getting old. ttin and about 4 others have done this now, and this is ttins second time.

[TTinCO]

FINE....move it to the promo thread, ya baby.

Are discussions regarding online scoreboards allowed?

http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif

[RPM]

ttin,

i like you. always have, but you know better than what you are doing. it isnt right.

i wouldnt have any problem with the site you are posting about at all if it were in honest conversation. but it isnt. i cant believe how many times in JUST ONE DAY, i have had to move threads for this.

its just not right.

[lander]

Would this topic be better off ... at ... i dunno .. some other site?? http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Then again, maybe we should all migrate to talk about some of the new sponsers http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[TTinCO]

RPM, I don't get it. "They" allow pretty much free speech "over there", but it can sometimes be like Hitler Germany over here.

I didn't really think that it would be a problem since the stats site wasn't in direct competition with you guys.....

[TTinCO]

Okay, now I get it RPM.

I wasn't around most of the afternoon & didn't realize that mine wasn't the only one.

[RPM]

lander,

i agree. shrink has done an excellent job bringing on top notch sponsors lately.

intertops and tcbets are both great.

[David Matthews]

I don't post at Major Wager much because they don't let me link to my website. The Rx lets me link to my site as long as it isn't in your face.

That's why I choose to post here and not at MW.

I have always felt the speech was freer here but maybe I don't know MW that well.

David

[TTinCO]

David, I THINK that links are allowed, but no actual url's-which I think open "your page in their window" vs. a link which opens a new one.

I may be wrong...but I thought that was the case everywhere.

What a complete idiotic statement.

I always knew you were a clueless kiss ass, but did you really want everyone else to know?

[SPIVE]

I believe it would be benefitual to all if a collection of informational/statistical sport-sites were placed in a separate folder, much like the Sport Books' reference folder, for others here to reference and enjoy.

Would this be acceptable MODS?

[Fishhead]

Majorstats has some good information. Will be very beneficial for some.

I currently still like Vegasinsider a tad better...much easier for me to read and navigate.

[1cheater]

Very good stats (http://www.sportsnetwork.com/home.asp)


News papers of sports teams (http://www.*********.com/sportsbetting/nba_newspapers.html)

[lander]

"RPM, I don't get it. "They" allow pretty much free speech "over there", but it can sometimes be like Hitler Germany over here."

In a surprising upset TTinco has just leap-frogged perenial co-winners BeantownJim & OldFriend for "BULLCHIT OF THE YEAR AWARD".

The award should look nice on your mantle of prized possesions - your Little League "i try harder award", certified replica of Major's scrotum, and your Cub Scout "Wolf Badge".

[ETOUQ]

http://www.twominutewarning.com is the best I have found for NFL. They do a ton a work, make their own unique stats, and do a solid writing up their research.

http://www.majorstats.com looks quite promising in baseball. Lots of indepth stats and decent suggestions for novices on how to use it.

TTinCo,
I sure hope you're getting some good anal for all this promoting ...

it's not an easy job bumping your agenda driven thread every hour of sohttp://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Hey Lander http://www.therx.com/forum/grem/fuck2.gif http://www.therx.com/forum/grem/fuck2.gif http://www.therx.com/forum/grem/fuck2.gif

I already told RPM to move it to the promo thread.

[Banned4Life]

I don't see what's the big deal that someone posted a link to a sports information site that may actually help some of the readers here. If that site wasn't associated with a guy named Major there wouldn't have been a peep of protest. http://www.therx.com/forum/grem/argue.gif

[lakerfan]

Agree Banned. What I find disturbing is the personal attacks by lander.

TTinCO might visit both sites, but I didn't know that resulted in smear attacks that have no place anywhere but the rubber room.

[altice]

The personal attacks aren't as disturbing as the fact that the board allows certain posters to be attacked relentlessly while interjecting when other posters are barely attacked at all. Must not be on the payroll or meet the minimum ghost requirement I guess.

[Halifax]

"I don't see what's the big deal that someone posted a link to a sports information site that may actually help some of the readers here. If that site wasn't associated with a guy named Major there wouldn't have been a peep of protest."
-------------------

Truer words may never have been spoken.

[RPM]

ACTUALLY, IT WAS MORE A PROBLEM OF A BUNCH OF MW REGULARS ALL COMING IN WITHIN THE SAME DAY POSTING THE SAME THING ABOUT THE SAME SITE.


this post was left up, because at the time, it at least came across as honest conversation, not shilling.

the others just looked like shill posts.

IMO, the tolerance level is different in both places, for various reasons. Personally, I get weary fast with idiots like BTJ taking holding the forums hostage tirelessly posting and rehashing the same subjects after he has been told to 100's of times to stfu. People just get tired of hearing the same lame beef over and over again. Let it stand? Make it go away? Somewhat subjective, depending on the principals or mods, but almost always sways towards what the majority of the posters want. <shrug>

Lou, How's it going? I can barely remember that AgentX business, and even further back, whatever it was you were perma-banned for in the first place. I was afraid you had been Hollywooded away from this scene. http://therx.infopop.cc/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[lander]

"I don't see what's the big deal that someone posted a link to a sports information site that may actually help some of the readers here. If that site wasn't associated with a guy named Major there wouldn't have been a peep of protest."

Perhaps, but this wasn't "a link" as you state - it was a dozen of them (over and over again).

When VIPSportsZone schills (for the 84th time) it's taken down - I don't see this as being any different.

When other (non-redundant) promotions are posted, they are moved (handicappers, books, etc) .. this is no different.

So, really IMO "truer words are QUITE OFTEN spoken" http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[Siggy]

Mr. Lander. I am new here and do not seek to ruffle feathers but, as the country's foremost amateur psychiatrist, I feel it would be a dereliction of duty not to alert you to a condition which, if left unchecked, could cause considerable problems later in life.

Did you know that roughly 70% of all individuals who make homosexual references in a derogatory manner are, in fact, homosexual themselves? Yes it is true.

The reason for their animosity typically derives from shame of their sexuality to the point of open hostility towards other homosexuals known or suspected. If the homosexual leanings are latent, the verbal abuse stems from the inherent tendency to display hostility towards that which attracts; as in the way pre-pubescent males and females display contempt for each other consciously despite the slowly developing natural relationship which emerges during adolescence.

In regards to the remaining 30% of individuals who display anti-homosexual sentiments, or who place adversaries in homosexual situations in an attempt to deride them, the overwhelming majority are in fact borderline psychotic with sexuial predatory tendencies.

The few stragglers who don't fit either camp are typically followers who believe that "playing to the crowd" will in some way enhance their own standing within the crowd.

Not knowing you I have little evidence as to which camp you belong but my professional suggestion to you would be to engage in a bit of sincere self-analysis in an attempt to understand your actions and from which internal issues they emanate.

Good Day.

"feel it would be a dereliction of duty not to alert you to a condition which, if left unchecked, could cause considerable problems later in life.

Did you know that roughly 70% of all individuals who make homosexual references in a derogatory manner are, in fact, homosexual themselves? Yes it is true.

Odd post, but let's play Mr. One Post Ghost.
Seeing how you, in your own word, said that homosexulality "could cause considerable problems" then most certainly (since you're surely the Doctor that you claim to be) must realize that you speak of it as if it were a "condition". I find this interesting, because an objective professional (such as yourself) would surely accept homosexuality as a sexual preference, not a "condition" that "could cause problems". It seems a bit "derogatory" to speak of a person's personal prefences in such a manner, no?

So I must conclude that since "roughly 70% of all individuals who make homosexual references in a derogatory manner are, in fact, homosexual" that based on your own beliefs & your own remarks about homosexual are, in fact, 70% queer.

Have a gay .. err happy day sir!

[Siggy]

Actually, Mr. Lander, had you been able to muffle your initial defensive reaction and allowed rational thought to invade your consciousness, you would have realized that the:

"condition which, if left unchecked, could cause considerable problems later in life."

to which I refer is not homosexuality but rather is neglected internal conflict which, when left to fester with no professional intervention, typically results in pyschotic episodes. I think we could all conclude that a pyschotic episode is a problem best avoided.

[lander]

Siggy,
Do you have a treatment for "stalking"?

Or do you treat all guys that you fancy with this unwanted attention?

[Siggy]

Mr. Lander, I am simply making an observation based upon what I have witnessed in this thread.

Take my advice or don't. It is up to you.

[lander]

You have 3 posts and they are all about homosexuality ... makes me wonder who's the sweet one here. http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Hey, while you're coming out .. why don't you come out & admit the ever-so-obvious fact that you're NOT a doctor ...

.. at least start with a credible lie if you want to be taken serious.

[Siggy]

Actually all 3 posts were regarding you and your behaviour.

I do not believe I have claimed to be a doctor, as "amateur psychiatrist" would attest.

I do not care to be taken seriously nor comically. It is just that internet forums such as this one are interesting places to observe human behaviour.

For instance, I have been observing the behaviour of a poster named Sick Gambler here and at other forums and I will tell you that upon a cursory analysis of his posts and interractions with other posters, this individual has some very serious issues that need immediate attention. I am in the process of writing up a full pyscho-analysis of this individual for potential publication in Amateur Pysch Weekly.

[lander]

Siggy,
I have a wife & a kid ... you're barking up the wrong tree, buddy.

You might be well advised to check the Rubber Room - they have all sorts of your type down there http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Best of luck to you in your continued lack of search for employment & your ever-going quest for man-love.

[Siggy]

Mr. Lander. Your responses here indicate a relatively significant emotional disturbance. I would strongly recommend you see someone regarding this. If asked, your symptons include:

1. Latent sexual confusion manifested as overt obsession with homosexual themes through the use of agressive anti-gay dialogue.

2. Early-stage non-complex Paranoia.

3. Possible dyslexia or potential intellectual retardation evidenced by poor reading comprehension.

Good Day.

[lander]

Good Butchy, but nobody asked.
