Reference my reply back to SSI in the NFL Forum. Thank you for your kind words. To answer your question. I am 55 years old and have been capping for over 30 years. This business will take it's toll and can make you feel quite old. Take breaks now and then to keep fresh. It will more than pay you back with clear thoughts and it will allow you to do this on a long term basis.

As for the game, the line closed at -2.5. I made a decision early as with Mouton's injury, I was comfortable with -4 and thought the line might move up. Wrong! Hopefully, the difference won't matter.

Good luck to you on all your plays.

 

[Co-Captain]

I am with ya on Duke, Moutan injury is huge as he is the teams leading scorer. He said that he would play, but evenso I cant see him being as effective if not injured. Good Luck today Sir, Aloha CC.

Captain

Glad to see we're on the same side. Good luck to you as well today. Aloha!

Did u guys notice DAWGMAN with XXXlarge syndicate play on Texas? 5-0 Duke to start however...I amw with you both on Duke...

 

[oldmanTED]

Remember DAWGMAN is providing service plays. Informative, but for me, after 30 years, I trust my own judgment and truthfully have more experience than most of the services currently in operation. Not meant to be critical, just my thoughts.

 

[SportSavant]

correct me if I am wrong, however he is offering service aswell as syndicate plays? (whatever syndicates are!!!)...Ones highlited in Black are strong plays?

 

[SSI]

ted, im 36 and dont think 55 is old.. ive been at this for almost 18yrs myself..

got my win on duke -2 (1H), good luck to you the rest of the day. im down to pulling for tampa on the front end of the teaser and waiting on the nba tonight.. by mid jan, ill be into college bb full time, for now im taking my shots and duke came in. hope they hold on for you..

I believe DAWGMAN provides his own plays as well as the service plays but I have seen him state on a previous thread that he "does not" personally handicap. He has stated that his plays come from "strong information". Either way, he provides information and his work effort is to be commended. He doesn't have to do all the work that he does.

Congratulations on winning the first half play on Duke. Well done!

 

[SportSavant]

Way to go Pops...I sense a sincerity in you that I do not see in other posters...I followed you on Both plays...nailed em both...& i owe it to you...

Incidentally I also sense nothing but good from your posts & appreciate you sharing yur hard work with us...

Looking for +10 -125 on Vic...so far so good I guess...

 

[oldmanTED]

Savant

Thank you and I'm glad you could share in the wins.

Your sense of me is correct. I've been doing this a long time and I registered with the RX to try and help and share information and knowledge. You will never see me get into an argument with any poster as it is not constructive to do so.

Futhermore, at times I may show an enthusiam but you will not see me gloat. The years have taught me to be humble. As we have done well so far today, there will be times when we will not do as well. Winning and losing. I try to treat them the same and look at the long view.

If the time comes when I close my eyes and it is said that I was kind, caring and sharing, my spirit would be pleased.

You take good care and, of course, as always, continued good luck with your plays.

PS-I will be adding my afternoon and evening plays shortly. Waiting on one game, as I expect money on the other side.

 

[oldmanTED]

Nice beginning to the day with a 2-0 start. As promised back with the afternoon and evening plays for today.

1* North Carolina -3.5
1* Stanford +1
1* California +5

Good Luck All.

 

[oldmanTED]

Last but not least is the very late evening, early morning play for today.

1* Auburn -4

Hope everyone is having a good day today.

 

[CarolinaKid]

Ted best of luck with Auburn,i like them here too and will be looking to play them later myself.gltu.(ck)

 

[oldmanTED]

Appreciate the best wishes kid. I see you have late plays today and that you attended the Carolina game. Great game. I had a play on the Heels and often times thought they were going to win it in each one of the OT's. A loss, but great basketball. The kids left everything they had on the court. Can't ask for more than that. They will be in the Big Dance for sure.

Good luck on your plays this evening.
