Why do you so ludicrously blame other people for the fact that you, repeatedly, are mistaken?

Plato said that true wisdom is knowing how much we do not know. In Plato's terms, you are quite unwise.

C'mon the Miami point was made that I wouldn't picked them again because they've lost twice when I picked them. The bad luck thing is meant to be funny you're nitpicking here.

And it's Ironic you're saying that I don't accept the reality that I made my mistakes but almost everyone here is delusional about their own team and how they're playing.

Now every week there are bad calls like Jacksonville over Arizona I did last week and bad luck ( It happens in the NFL, every sport and life Dummy) Like Cin losing to Denver on a desperation weird play in the last seconds. Get Real.

So if a Pick in Basketball Cleveland over Chicago and they are winning by 2 in the final seconds and a guy from Chicago throws the ball from his own court and nails the 3 pointer to win the game at the buzzer. You're saying I lost because I made the bad pick it wasn't bad luck... if you really believe that luck has nothing to do with sports than I'm unwise in the eyes of Plato, But you sir are just unwise

But you're looking at it completely wrong. All picking games really comes down to is probabilities. You take all the information you can get, toss out what you deem to be valueless, and then you make the best pick.

Anyone here can do that. Where you have to make your money is by finding games where there's a blowout waiting to happen, but vegas necessarily doesn't see it that way. Calling a game to be "close" is basically saying that you could have gone either way (whether straight or the spread), but you hope to be lucky. Speaking in absolutes (and take this from me) just makes you look like an ass.

I happen to be a quite horrible game picker, btw. I don't bill myself as someone who can pick 12 games right per week though.

See that's the thing man, NOBODY is more delusional about their team and how they're playing than a Cowboy fan. NOBODY. And you still point your finger at us just like Lotus said. You answer his remarks by pointing at us. How is that owning up to your OWN mistakes? Ya'll talk shit and act like you're all that every year and you haven't even won a playoff game in what..13 years? First graders have graduated High School in that amount of time.

Is luck involved? Then why should anyone pay attention to your picks? You can't predict luck can you? The truth is everyone has an opinion and yours isn't any better than most of the posters on this board. Believe it or not pardner there are some very intelligent people here who know quite a bit about football. To be honest, your picks aren't anymore relevant than the paper I wipe my a** with.

It does not matter if there are lucky plays or bad calls. That's the nature of sports. If you picked wrong, you picked wrong. Own up to it.

The point is that you have an overblown idea of your own expertise. The fact is that you cannot seem to think clearly, you cannot write worth a damn, you do not work from accurate facts, and you really don't seem to understand the game of football very much.

Personally I would be embarrassed to purvey garbage the way that you do. But since you insist on putting your drivel out before us, instead of respecting us to have better taste, you can be sure that I will never read a thread of yours again. My time is too valuable to waste on your poorly written, poorly thought out rubbish.
