The better posters know not to use the word lock...they just call it a VERY GOOD PLAY.

Thumbs up Jim Rome on Locks and Gambling

Clip from a couple years ago when Jim started talking about the NFL lines that had come out 3 1/2 months before the first game was to be played. Pretty funny.

I don't think there are enough hours in the day for you to keep track of bradleysnyder's locks.

This one was especially awesome because he followed one failed lock with another failed lock in the same thread.

By the way I don't discourage these types of threads at all. They are always entertaining.

Most locks lose we can make a huge list of posters that consistently lose.

Anyone who has more, please link.

Use the format I used, or a similar one. Link to the thread, date, name of poster. Pick also would be good.


Real moron yesterday:

Tonights free winner (ITS A LOCK) Louisville football - 9/26 sportsWIZONATOR

It's hilarious how people keep doing it. As far as I'm concerned, if you guarantee a pick and/or call it a LOCK and it loses, your credibility is completely shot. Maybe these new accounts guaranteeing picks are people who have been here and lost all credibility and are trying to start over.

another moron tonight. I wonder how many accounts he's posted "locks" with.

Lock total tonight - Don't Miss it Pittsburgh-South Florida football - 10/2/08 sicky123

This one is a jackass of a special flavor, too. He posts a "lock" that, of course, doesn't come through, and then he spends the rest of the thread calling everyone else stupid losers.

Quotes:

"Listen to you guys. Years of losing really make you all that bitter ?"

"Do you make yourself look this stupid every night"

" You haven't been handicapping long have you ?

You people really need to learn how to analyze games properly.. sad. No need for me to argue with nitwits all night. More important things to do than teaching the bitter side."

"I call him cool compared to the guy who just gets a new screen name every time his "LOCK" doesn't come in Sounds like the both of you have had a sore history of losing. I almost feel bad."

"There will always be a lot of bitter gamblers out there as this is not an easy game. Most can't handle it, but some can... Its easy to tell whose who."

Keep record of wins and losses. I can't tell which won. Or are you just tracking losers?

Look at the title of the thread.

Although to tell you the truth, I don't see locks that actually succeed. You have any?

I could keep track of wins and losses, although I think we all know the win percentage is extremely low.

I might adjust it by date, although you certainly deserve the #1 spot.

see, here's the thing:

if it's a "lock" it better hit. If you go 60% on "locks", that's awful.
