Regarding Osk

Do you guys realize that professional handicappers would be thrilled to hit 55% over 700 picks? I follow the industry pretty close and I only know of one guy other than Osk that can hit 60% over that many picks.

I cant beleive ......

the way people bash Oskiem, Since I have joined the Forum he has showed me so much. And so what if he likes the DOGS. If you notice the people that bash him are the ones that contribute nothing. WhAT does sneaky petey contibute? I just hope these idiots dont drive these great cappers off the forum. There are no guarentees in GAMBLING. He must do something right his posts only get about 3000 views or more a day!

thanx for everthing OSK.

Agree

I don't post often and I will admit I come here to get Oskiem plays and others. I don't have time to cap the games my self. I have learn alot from many here. As many other have stated if you don't like his play's or the the way Oskiem does things just ignore him. I for one have had the most profitable football season ever. I only hope people like Sneaky Pete don't chase Os and some of the great cappers away. Oskiem and others keep up the good work.

It almost seems as if sneaky pete is a tout who cant sell his picks. Just another hater. Osk is solid on this forum and no one can ever change that.

Osk (how do you pronounce that?) is a stellar gamesman. He tends to love NFL dogs, but does come up with thorough trends and matchup analysis. My hats off to him and I tend to tail him often. Keep it up.

Hey mr. chaos151.....

Page 4 of Osks' thread clearly shows you calling him "Over-rated"..........
Don't try to come to another thread, and suck up..

You and the other negative people can go away......
As far as you go, I smell a rat.....

Love him in this thread, then bash him, then accuse him of copying, then asking us to BUY picks,

You can go away, and take your friends with you!!

Who's selling picks? Stop the negativity... let it go - Can't I worship Osk like everyone else?

Not when you call him "MR OVER-RATED"

By the way, you did that in his own thread.....you stepped on him in his own thread and called him that.


Reference page 4 in his Pro pick thread for Monday.......



Post your plays, then call somebody "over-rated"....Oh I'm sorry...."Mr. Over-rated"....

My Input

If people don't like what Osk pick's DONT PLAY IT!!!
And if you do play it and it happens to go down, SHUT UP and take it like a Man!!! Case Closed.

capper envy

Let them who loose more often than not cast the hate when the good guys have a loosing day. They are probably selling someone else picks as well.
Let everyone who be like this follow "The Big Stu Nation".
Everyone has a winning system that just can't loose. How many GOY's have been won or lost this year or over the past 5 yrs.
A new system pops up every time a trend is made up. You pick the law of averages and decide which one is right or wrong.

It is called Gambling for a reason. (Risk or Reward) They go together no risk no reward.
Throw the darts at a schedule card and then play. I've Not enough guts to play these games.
Systems have streaks and everyone wants to be on the winning side of the system but the mad cappers can't stand the loosing side of it.
These are the cappers that usually sell their picks and haven't a winning overall system of their own.

Good Luck
Mudd

P.S.

My Record doesn't matter to me but It does to others. The only thing I can say here is that I've won more than I lost and my accounts tell me so. Those with stated records often get bashed when they loose as people have high hopes when following another person's picks.

peace

he buys juice nearly every game

It seems that everyone is forgetting that he "buys the hook" - as he likes to say - nearly every game. When you lay -120 on every game (which he almost always does), a 55% winning percentage isn't very flattering.

In fact, if you lay -120 every game, you need to win 54.5% of the time - which is exactly his winning percentage.

I'm not here to talk anyone of you guys off of his plays, but I realized a long time ago that he's merely an average handicapper at best. I'm much better off applying my own handicapping skills.

Sorry to be the dissenting opinion.

If anything, we should all try harder on our own. Peace and happy holidays.

gorish

Yet another banned member......where are your picks?....ooh only 6 posts, hmmmmmm......post your own plays, then talk...


Lets see...
You contribute nothing, then speak negative, then contribute nothing.....

I see yet another pattern developing here....

Next, let us know how good Dr. Bob or somebody else is,....

Then accuse Osk of copying....

Then, get banned....


Then come back with another name, and try to sell us picks...

Nice try....

Post your picks...oohhh..I'm sorry you haven't contributed anything..

I was going to say post your picks, then critisize...

wow dude

I just tried to point out a statistical fact. Sorry to upset you.

Easy math, my friend. Lay -120, you have to win 55% of the time.

If you want to call anyone who disputes you a "tout" go ahead, i'm just stating the statistical facts.

Happy holidays.

MikeB needs a chill pill... can anyone stop his negativity please - just let it go! Aparently the only people who are allowed to post have hundreds of posts already & "contribute" - can't we all just get along? Don't hate on people for their opinions... everyone is equal buddy. Goodluck to you in the future

very nice chaos

I'm just trying to state some statistical facts, and Mike gets upset.

HANDICAP YOURSELF. That's my Christmas gift.

Happy holidays.
