This is something Ive noticed and especially since online sports forums sprouted all over the place.
Every other thread its easy to find the words, "public, square, everyone is on, fade, etc". People post these threads about how the public is on such and such team, and within one hour they have 25 replies agreeing with them that yes in fact "everyone" is on that game and they are also fading "everyone".
I guess when they calculate "everyone" they arent including themselves and the rows of others who think they are alone playing these "public fades".
The army of contrarians here and elsewhere believe they are supposedly on the sharp plays eventhough I dont see any of them with a + tally at end of season. As far as Im concerned, the "sharp" side is the side that cashes the ticket and nothing else.
Ive tried blindly fading various consensus items and it doesnt work unless used sparingly. Its a tool and nothing more.
I, myself, as a former member of this "contrarian" club, would like to inform the rest of the army that they are in fact the majority quite often and may want to reconsider "contrarian" betting methods.
