Ted well said, as you know I do to share the same opinions of how we are here to support and help others out in anyway that I can. I dont claim ever to be the Messiah for others out of their financial rut or even to make them a rich person. No I just try to share my experience and knowledge with whomever wants it.
fvck it if people dont want it then , I'll save the many hours I take to put it together in a writeup and just post plays with no value on them at all either. I dont see it of any use to me if others dont want it. I always saw it also as a way to inform people, but also as a way for me to get feedback from others. I guess I just save me the 3-4 hours I take on some days putting together a writeup. I guess now is time for me to help me out now. I could care less about popularity from people I dont even know. Where is the value in that. The value to me was freely helping people I didnt know in whatever way I could. CC.

If the exposer's records are correct? he is just posting facts I can't believe posters are upset over someone that took the time to calculate all these records. Did you ever think maybe he was doing this because he was looking for a really good capper over the long haul not just a couple of hot months?
Captain:
As you know, I provided write-ups on every college bowl game and playoff game and although I enjoyed sharing my thoughts with the forum and viewers, they truly take an enormous amount of time and energy. I know how much you put into these write-ups and I think many in the forum as well as the viewers do as well. I see the times you write these up and I know it is leaving you little time for sleep. This is why I provide only a brief write-up once in awhile in hoops. With so many games, it would tire this oldman out. I have to trust that the reader believes that I won't put out a play without having done my research. I think you have proven the same. Those that believe in you will continue to do so with or without the write-up. Those that don't, the write-up won't change their mind. Consider your time to be valuable. This oldman would view any release you have as valuable with or without a write-up. Food for thought.

jwunderdog,
My point exactly.
Co-Captain,
What I was getting at was that I cannot take someone's write up and picks with out checking them out for a long time. I read your plays and write up reguraly now but only after I seen what you could do over time. I could care less what a new poster does his first month or two here. I use that time to evaluate his selections and reasoning. I also love write up's and see alot of value in them.
That is the point I was trying to make. So to me YTD is important. But I also belive that it up to the capper to post or not post a record. Or do whatever he wants. If I was really concerned about a YTD record I would keep it myself for my own use.
Take care,
Ku

I am not sure I understand this at all.
I admire Pitbull and Mrgreen and co-captain and I have benefited from their picks since I started following them. I have also told them so.
If the posted records are correct, I dont see any problem at all and certainly no need to move the thread.
It has made me aware that Action and allstar are also good cappers and I still think highly of Mrgreen and co-captain.
IMO the starting post is a relevant one and one that should make noone ashamed.

The last thing I will say in reference to this thread, is that the records is not a 100% accurate true reflection of what I lost or won. What is a true reflection is the fact that the trend in the months of Dec, Jan , and Feb, does show how I started out cold, then got warm, and then got warmer. I have never not stated this. People can post whatever they want to I will not deny anything if your accurate. what I will deny is when someone uses this kind of thing to try an incinuate something about me. For ex, I am touting myself, I am running off good cappers, I am padding my record, I am not reflecting the truth. That is what this thread is for, to incinuate and create some sort of questioning about people who are now finding success for themselves and for others. Get a grip my friend if you think I did any of those things. Your attempts to try and bring me down in some way is meaningless , because you cannot, because I neither wish to be put on a pedistal or touted in anyway. It is simply meaningless. I am here to do my best and share with others my best. Hey if your best is not good enough , then get better. Lastly, if I and my ways are not good enough, then follow someone else and ignore me. You want winners, then I will work hard to try and get them for you. That is all I can guarantee, is that I will do my best to try and give them to you. So far, the record for this season is showing that I am getting better at providing winners and I am happy for this , because that shows progression and we all can benefit from that type of thing. Like I mentioned, I am not against anyone posting my records, I am against why they want to do it. And, it is not to help others, as much as it is to try and start some type of controversy. Fvck I am not a fvckin dummy, dummy, and I see right through your shit. And I see that others do as well. Still no answers for my questions above, I wonder why. People I am here to help that is it. If you want it, take it. If not then thats cool, I will never force myself upon anyone. Aloha CC.
CC and Ted,
Both of you need to just keep on doing what you are doing...CC, I like the fact that you are awake when most others are sleeping---This is definitely a different prospective than most of us...You both have inspired me to look more closely at the reason I post also and it has to be to help others win $$$$...Sometimes I just post games with no write-ups and other times just a few notes of reason why I like the games...Since I have had extra time working form home in the past few months, I have learned more about handicapping by following the plays of others and their thoughts...I will continue to think like the bookie and hopefully over the long haul, can help us all make more money!!!I am going to enjoy the time I have now posting here--Keep my records up to date---So I can eventually turn tout!!
Just send me your email and I can sign you up to the tigerclicks.com daily inspiration!
Good luck to all...And remember, GTHTGP!

I have check my record twice from the beginning and friend of my also check my season record, and we both came up with the same results. I'm on the road a lot and do lots of traveling so I was unable to keep updating my record every night. I guest that I should not be playing all those West Coast game lol!!! Well here it is folks:
Season Record: 131-108-6 +80.39 Units
*The first month and a half my average play's were of 5 or 7 units with a ten unit play here and there.
*That's only .548117 or 55% winners (not great but ok)
*I never play college moneylines!!!
*20 Units Plays (highest) are 4-1!!!
*Last forty selections are:23-16-1 +89.65 UNITS (59%)
ALLSTAR

There's nothing wrong with this thread imo. Everyone mentioned provides a great service to everyone here. I think season long and current monthly records, etc are valuable. I feel that everyone that posts plays here should be required to post their record each day and keep it updated, at the bare minimum should do it once a week.
With a good record those people are very worthy of following. With a writeup can be valuable as well. But I would think most people have an opinion if they are going to make a play and would be more concerned with the play than the writeup.
For example I stumbled ac**** a couple of Old mans plays the last few days and liked them both myself and with his NBA record being what it was made me more confident in my play.
For anyone complaining about this thread, just be glad Raiders doesn't flame like he used to. Praise the Lord.

MFG - There is nothing wrong with the content of the thread. The problem is a first time poster calling himself the exposer ( and all that signifies) took it on himself to post undocumented records of some of the more sucessful (of late) cappers in the CBB forum.
Take All-Star above you, he posted his own record, and it is very much different from the exposer record for All Star. I know you are sensative about your own record, as you should be. How would you feel if the same thing happened to you in the middle of last football season? I just want to make sure any record keeping is done impartially by a trusted poster with some credibility. Not a first timer who is obviously hiding behind a ghost registration. Let exposer come forward and expose himself. Perhaps then he will be given a much larger benefit of the doubt. I truly belive that our cappers in all sports (including yourself) are the most valuable assets we have at The Rx. and deserve to have the support of everyone who makes use of their contributions.
wil.
