Seriously?

This place is like the USA anymore, where everyone watches Jersey Shore, Dancing With the Stars, and plays video games all day and night (no offense to the college kids here.) Where no one discusses or cares to watch or talk about the issues that matter.

No substance to many of these posts here.

No talk of beating the closing numbers, shopping for value, how to middle/scalp, what line constitutes value, systems or angles that are profitable, etc........

Where have all the old heads around here gone anyway?
Dont see many posting anymore.

just in case you don't know how to look below your nose, there are no less than 8 gambling specific topics here on the first page in the OS alone, ranging from the odds of hitting a square on super bowl sunday to a conversation about how books have adjusted this year in regards to CBB spreads and also specific books that limit players who win too much, as well as a discussion on what things can cause a player to get limited or booted.....

it RARELY takes me more than 5 minutes to find a topic that i am interested in reading about

This........I have actually seen too much of lately.

So many ridiculous claims of systems, big games, reading hidden codes, etc..

Comes to a point do you let it all go, or create a special thread and sticky it for all to see, especailly newbees who have just stumbled into our hobby, warning and explaining not to believe everything they read...

In fact, looking at the threads you have started this month alone, we get a mixture of decent gambling related topics as well as such thread titles as:

"Who Authorized the Chinaman playing the Anti-U.S. song in the White House"

"The Woman with 14 Kids"

"Mike Mccarthy is an Idiot" (sharp post considering his team is in the Super Bowl a month after you started a thread calling him an idiot)

"When Will the Ted Williams 15 Minutes of Fame Be up"

Some SOLID sports betting discussion contributions there I tell ya what!

#1. No need to be an asshole.
#2. I was referring to threads in this particular forum.
#3. McCarthy is an idiot if you've watched him coach games. Trust me. I know the guys relatives. He is not the sharpest tool in the shed. The guy is in the SuperBowl b/c he has a very talented team. Thats besides the point though.

Wow. A guy tries to criticize the entire forum ... until Sooner sticks his hand up his ass and pulls out the shit that Wolf didn't think existed.

Your shit stinks too, Wolf ... and Soonerdawg just took our ass out to the woodshed and opened up a can on you. Live with it.

I dont mind the BS posts either. All I'm trying to say is that I wish there was more strategic talk and stuff in this forum that's all.

I love the BS talk. I'm pretty much a hermit and only leave the house to go to the sports book and work. This is pretty much my social life pretty sad

sports forums have plenty...


agree..much more of that in the SPORTS forums that coincide with the specific Sport . The offshore forum has become different topic central at times

maybe this specific forum is the forum people go to take a break from the just sports talk.. IMO

yeah wolf...I worry about the CB's like taylor I think he is overrated and over paid...I think IF they start out strong and open up the O a bit with ben they have a shot ... they need to get pressure on Rodgers with harrison and woodley. if not its going to be a long night

You don't post more bullshit than me.

That said, you're pretty funny except you just try to be Rush Limbaugh a little too much, SD.

PS: I don't know if I end up blowing you or criticizing you with last line, btw ... so don't ask.
