Wayne,
I think that was truly a classy thread, and I read it 3 times. I also read all the responses from the other well respected members. I think it sounds like a great idea, and I'd like to respond and comment on some of the things stated in there.
1. I'm not going to mention names of who said what, but there has been 1 time this whole season that I said in a message I think to SPARK that it sucked because I only posted a play in the POD thread and didn't post my plays and I ended up going 4-1 on the night and that was my only loser. Did I count those plays in my record??? HELL NO!! I wouldn't do that because I didn't post them. So when someone says that I "always come on here and say I took 6 other games that I didn't post and they all won", I take A LOT of offense to that!
2. Someone mentioned how I ALWAYS go in and welcome newbies and am usually one of the FIRST people to answer anyone's questions about how to cap, or how to hedge, or even what the payouts are on a parlay. I first stated 1.5 years ago when I joined here that my MAIN point is to help others win money and help them learn about sports wagering. I said that from the VERY beginning and I still feel the same way. I am a teacher at heart and I love teaching guys how to win at this, and if my plays can help them win $$, then it makes me even happier! This is the honest to GOD truth. I do not bash people about their plays, and only once did I make a comment that was kind of taken the wrong way to MtrCityPimp about why would he take a game one way when the line crossed the 0 point, or something like that. And I saw how he could be offended, and I appologized. I'm not mean spirited or have any ill will towards anyone, I even hope Surveyor and Husker win money everyday.
3. Some people on here ARE really acting like I did something that was criminal?? I'm really taken by that. I'll say it one last time, I made the bet, I lost the money, I have to live with it. If I would've known it was going to cause such a problem here at BC, I would've stated EVERY SINGLE SPECIFIC involving the bet, who I took it with, where it was placed, why we took it and if it was part of my normal plays. Looking back, If I would've waited 5 more minutes to post the play, then the 1st pitch would've been thrown, and it wouldn't have counted towards my plays because the game would've already started, and NONE of this would have happened. And I thought about that, but honestly didn't think it was going to become a problem. I don't usually keep a record just because it is a pain in the ass for me. I know I'm on here a lot, but it's just a pain., thats why I never kept one in the past. Up until that game I was right around 55% and up $5,000 so far on the season. I don't know how any of you feel, but I think that's pretty good for 1/3 of the season. Yesterday I went 4-1 and in reality I took all those games for $300, I think out of anger last night I said just make them all 5 UNITS, because people wanted to know units now. I post Units in all other sports, so I will keep it that way for baseball from here on too.
4. I have made some great friends on this site, too many to mention, but you KNOW who you are. Wayne, you and I have had our differences, and we always make up like an OLD MARRIED COUPLE!! I hope for my sake, for your sake, and for all the members of BC that it doesn't happen ever again in the future, but one can never tell, people do have opinions and they are stated, and that's what makes this place so great. I'm sure though that it won't get to this extent, and we will solve it in a civilized manner. Wayne, there's about 8 guys on here that have my cell phone number who I talk to quite a bit, and I'd be more than happy to give it to you and we can bullshit one day. I'm sure in real life you're a great guy, a family man, and a true friend who would give someone your last 2 dollars if they wanted to puy some smokes. I can tell that from you, and I, along with everyone else appreciate what you do for BC! I have a TOTALLY DIFFERENT outlook on you after reading that post and a WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF RESPECT! You're probably a lot like me, and it does bother me when shit like this happens. I've said it a hundred times, this is like a 2nd home to me. This is the 1st place I come to every morning and the last place I come before bed every night. I spend more time with you guys than I do with my own girlfriend and family. You guys mean a lot to me and I hope you feel the same about me.
All in all, I really appreciate the post you made and we'll leave it at that. I was out all day yesterday at a pool party, so who ever said that I lay low while I let my backers do my dirty work it dead wrong. I have NEVER hidden from anything, I'm just not around the computer at the time, but when I get back, I always respond right away. To guys like LSUMonster and TMac, we've never gotten the chance to talk that much but I do appreciate you sticking up for me when neither of you really know me that well. Guys like LSUFAN, 10Dime, Doc, Chuck, Frank, Marty, Gary, Rwall, Kmann, I thank you as well and you guys will always be good friends of mine. And finally to guys like Husker & Surveyor, you will probably never like me, and for that I'm sorry. I appologize for any harsh words I've said to either of you in the past, and I can only say maybe things will be different from this point on. Again you can't please everyone, but I do try.
Thanks again guys, that's all I have to say on all these subjects, and Wayne, once again that was truly a classy move and shows me that you are a true man. When I first logged on I read your thread, then went back and saw my plays thread from yesterday and saw all the bashing again and realized that you made this new thread this morning and that is what I'm going by.
Let's KILL the BOOKS today Guys!!!!!!
