McIrish, I've been on here awhile now and am not afraid to make my own picks. Go back and look at some of my posts. As for the "out of thin air" comment, I agree it may be a little harsh, but comments like "wrong team is favored here" are very vague. Just give a little reasoning to your selection. I think when I countered your argument, I at least gave a little solid evidence to support my case. I, too, get tired of people coming on here time and again spouting off about how good a capper they are and touting their record. I don't provide such boasts, just give you picks and reasoning for them, and if I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I'd like to think I have a few backers here and if they want to piggyback my picks more power to them. I find I usually fade more than ride on the coattails of most of the people who post here, as most provide nothing more than cannon fodder for the sportsbooks.
Good luck, my friend, and with that I'm off to go double up on Eastern Washington.
