The whining and crying about the games is one thing...a lot of people do that.
I think it is the "I'm done posting plays..." routine that has become the norm for Chop the last 2 years that gets old real quick. If you are done, be done. No one needs an announcement each time.
Last year it was almost daily he was threatening to quit posting because of bashers...then he was done for good...then it was this...then it was that.
If you want to post plays, great. If you don't, don't. It doesn't have to be a big dramatic scene everytime someone gets off their meds.
I would venture to guess you could search and find 10 posts by Chop saying he was done posting or threatening to stop posting.
I am a perfectly normal person who does not need nor takes meds:lolBIG:
My motivation for betting on sports is for the competition of beating the books. Not for the money. If I was in this for real money, I would be betting more than $300 bucks a game. I have the $$$ to be a $1000 a game player if a wanted to do this for those reasons.
When you are in it compete in a competion and you lose, you get frustrated. Im like Paul Oneal or Lou Pinnela. When I lose im the guy who kicks the water cooler over in the dugout. Im the guy who throws the bats in the middle of the field. Im the guy who gets in the umps face after a bad call.
How come baseball fans love people like that who give a damm, but when that same personality comes into the forum, they get labeled as a cry baby.
Is Pete Rose a cry baby? Its all about my competive nature. Im the most competive person I know. I dont care if im playing checkers. If its competition I HAVE TO WIN!!!!!! When I dont, I get pissed.
That type of personality has been both a good and bad trate in my life. Sometimes it rubs people the wrong way. But in the end, the competive person wins the race in all aspects of life. On the job im the same way. I always have to be better than the next guy. I always have to out do myself.
So what does this get me.
I have alot of people in the real world who love me, and a lot of people in the real world who hates me.
But I have some of the best friends in the world. I can honestly tell you I have about 10 friends who would give me the shirt of there back if need be, because they know I would do the same for them.
IM COMPETIVE, What more can I say? I HAVE TO WIN, and when I dont, I get madd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you know what? IM GLAD I GET MADD!!!!
What im I going to do this offseason? I am going to spend more time than I ever have in my entire life studying baseball. By the time next season starts, I will probably have looked over every box score of the entire 2006 season and try to find the patterns that will give me insight for 2007.
The books beat me this year. Now im more pissed than ever, and im taking it personally.
LET THE COMPETION BEGIN.
