the thing with xspower is he will wish anyone luck, whats wrong with that? If you want my buddy to be posting in your post with meaningful information just ask him, hes very insightful and he only really talks to a few people who actually will interact with him and actually seem to know something of what they are talking about. You ever give xspower a chance and actually try and post with him or are you just spreading hate? seems the later.
I agree with JOM and Sal.
XS may be very sincere in all of his congratulatories, but to me it just seems like a Walmart greeter. "Welcome". "Thank you for shopping". Or a politician going down the line.
I assume he is a mod just doing his job. And if that is what the bosses want, so be it.
But it to me it is annoying. For one reason :
i surf for plays. And many posters have add ons.
If red elephants (just for example) posts a play, after a little while it goes down below. When someone posts in it, back to the top it goes. Now when I check in again, I have to go thru that thread to see if a new play was added.
The end of the world? Absolutely not. 1st world problem.
Pain in the butt and a bit time consuming....totally.

JOM -
Your out of your last 20 posts- 15 of them are in BR's threads knocking other people's "dumb" posts or something to do with BR, 4 of them have to do with bitching about XS saying good luck, and 1 of them was in an actual thread you created talking about a game. I could go back to your last 60 and I am positive I would find the same. Dude, get a life. . .seriously.

Not sure I ever saw him post that. I did see him post after a big losing day that " I will get it back and then some, I promise you that !!!!". When I suggested to XS that he shouldn't make a promise like that as there's at least a reasonable chance that he would not get it back and then some, he got very upset and said he never promised anyone anything. He very much wants to be liked and seen as a good capper on here, but his record keeping is very selective. He actually stopped posting in MLB when he got down about $100k and then posted his playoff picks in the record tracker forum to avoid coming back to the baseball forum.
When he wins, he comes back to his thread to post his record almost immediately. He lost nearly $50k this week in NCAA football and still hasn't updated his record. If he were up $50k, you can bet your last $, he'd have updated his weekly record last night.
As to the GL my friend comments, it's just wasted filler and not genuine. He often wishes good luck to someone who just posted a play opposite his own play. Does he want them to win and for his play to lose.
Lastly, all his write-ups and "insights" are just articles he copies without crediting the person who actually put the work into writing it. I know most people know it's not his own work, but some think it is. Regardless, when you copy a the work of someone else, you should at least give them credit.
As someone else posted, none of this is a big deal and I could just not open his threads. There's just something about shameless and misleading self promotion that really bugs me.
