Alright, my turn I guess....

Im 32 and from Ottawa in Canada. Yes I am a Canadian born and raised. I am married with two children. I have been gambling since the age of 16. I started with Proline which is our sports lottery here in Canada. Bought some cool toys with my winnings (playstation, bike, Surround sound system...) But then I discovered the joys and being able to bet just one game on a ticket. (proline minimum is 3 games so it sucks) and have been offshore since that day. Now Im trying to win to buy some bigger toys. Bigger toys for bigger boys!!

I love watching all sports (I live for sports..lol) but my fav are hockey and football. I've had the most success betting baseball.

P.S. No I am not a Sens fan even though Im from Ottawa. I hate the Sens and every year enjoy watching them lose. When they made their cup run a couple years back I bought a jersey of the opposing team in every round so them making it to the final made me a nice jersey collection. Thank god they didnt win!! I have been a Kings fan all my life and dont see myself changing either!

Well thats me in a nutshell. I think there is awesome talent in this forum and I am definately here to stay!

27, live in Bay Point, CA in the East SF Bay Area. I have 2 kids, one boy (almost 6) and one girl, (almost 1). I work for Apple, Inc. and own a clothing company and do graphic design on the side. I'm a man of many hustles, always trying to make some spare cash to support my family. This is my newest hustle, I started in October in the MLB playoffs. I'm learning a lot from this forum mostly by tailing others and watching/learning trends. I was referred to this site by my buddy lf25bonds. Baseball is my true passion and my favorite sport. I can't wait for baseball season to begin since I feel I'm most knowledgeable on baseball. I'm a die hard Giants fan and also a huge 49er fan. Anything else hit me up!

My name is Chris. I love Jesus and live for Him first. I'm a big Giants fan and live in the bay area.

The area I win lots of money in each year is season win totals. I have never lost any season. Other than that I tread water in day to day capping.

Nice bump

I had to go back through to see if I posted and I haven't. I thought I had. My name is Sean and am a CPA. Huge Steelers fan and Phillies fan. Used to like the 76ers when Mo, Andrew, Moses, Bobby and the Doctor were roaming the court. Fo fo fo.

I grew up in Wildwood Crest, NJ and now live in Jackson, NJ. My buddy DoubleOne recommended this site to me over a year ago and have loved it ever since. There are some great cappers here and better than that - just some decent human beings.

I played baseball at Lehigh University in Bethlehem PA. I was on a show called the Bachelorette but am now married and have 2 little girls - a 17 month old and a 1 day old.

I bet for fun rather than an investment and rarely go too large. My best sport is baseball and my best capping happens during the NCAA tournaments.

Hey guys I'm 21 years old and am a Junior at Illinois studying Economics. I am a Bears, Bulls, and St. Louis Cardinals fan.
I love pretty much all sports and especially like to play basketball and golf.
I am relatively new to sports betting, but have been playing poker and betting horses casually for 3 or 4 years now.
My best sport is probably NCAAB (especially the Big Ten games) but it is still kind of early to tell.
I have only been using this forum for about a week or so now, but so far I find it extremely helpful, and have been picking some winners lately.

It's no bachelorette.......

But I was recently on an episode of Pawnstars. My wife and I were in Vegas for our honeymoon and thought it would be fun to bring something in to sell.
I am now 35, married with a baby boy due in March. I love all sports but am pretty good at playing the MVC.

And i think i did this before but..

My name is Tony and i live in Wildwood NJ. 35yrs of age.
Love this forum and a buddy of mine introduced me to it about 4-5yrs ago. Played football and baseball in high school with Sir Denham but he was a senior when i was a frosh so the coaches felt bad and played him over me.
Was a professional college student for 11years(East Carolina for 5). My dream was to become a meteoroligist on the weather channel (no lie) but i could not pass organic chemistry and instead became a registered nurse. Not married and will probably skip that part of my life. Although my girlfriend might have a problem with that.
Everyone around here knows i'm a diehard Pittsburgh fan.
In order; Steelers, Penguins, Panthers, Pirates. My family is from Pittsburgh and growing up near the Philadelphia area was torture for me. And thus the explanation for my hatred towards Philly sports.
Anyway, i love this forum. And although i've never met anyone from the den i consider many to be my friends.

Great forum and great thread!

Well...

was looking at the 'How old are you' thread, and saw I didn't write anything in this thread. I just turned 53 the first of the year. Mother said she tried, but I was an hour late from being a New Year's baby. ha Married for 25 years. Live 25 miles west of Gettysburg, Pa. 2 hours north of Baltimore and DC. 3 hours from Pittsburgh and 3 hours to Philly.

Have been working for a natural gas transmission company for 21 years. Guess I could call myself a pipeliner. Been operating heavy equipment since I was 17. Work on the high pressure, cross-country lines, not the residential stuff.

Hobbies include; hunting, fishing, golfing, pool, remodeling, and of course gambling. Football is my favorite sport. Used to be a huge NASCAR fan. When 'The Man' died, so did my enthusiasm for that sport. Isn't the same. Used to go to 6-10 races a year. Had season tickets at 4 short tracks...... Bristol, Martinsville, Richmond, and North Wilkesboro. Done with that now.

Started gambling young with poker and billiards. Supplemented my income very handsomely on the pool tables for a few years. A natural bar room athlete!

Also 'gambled' on the real estate market for a while. Bought rundown places, remodeled them, and flipped them as fast as possible. Made out OK with that until I got older and slower. Then the wife decided our house needed it. Then my parent's. Then, ...... well, you get the picture. Not much time for any more hobbies, but I still love woodworking.

That's why I decided to concentrate on the A-10 conference in college basketball. They were somewhat local and I get to watch a fair number of the games. Thought if I could put my efforts into a smaller number of games, it may benefit someone. I just don't have the time to cap everything I'd like to. Hope my insight helps sometimes.

Was introduced to this site by a pretty 'sweet' guy. Most of you know who I mean. I know a lot of you love baseball, but I don't follow it anymore. I've wrote about that previously, so no need to elaborate, except, until there's a salary cap....screw 'em! Hope everyone else enjoys it though. Besides being busy in the summer, I know a couple guys that are very good at capping that sport, needless to say!!

A bunch of good people on this site, and a few loose cannons as well. But generally, I've enjoyed the time I get to spend on here. Best wishes to all.

This is what statfox used to be. A group of people joining together to win games. It's still a great place. Don't get me wrong.

People that visit this site need to join. And talk. Ask questions. I miss the days of 'buster.' I miss the days of ingame threads. This forum will always be the best but if people don't join and discuss **** then it gets kinda boring.

Stop standing on the sidelines and join statfox
