Default Re: *** Official Seahawks @ Bears -3.5

Im not sure if any of you do this, but I was listening to some sports radio show in the morning and there was this crazy dude (forgot his name) giving a free pick on a phone. He said that this pick was the "Game of his life". So I called his number and after a couple minutes listening to a recorded message he says go with the bears for tonights game. He actually guarantees the bears will cover the spread by 7 points, and if they don't you get all his picks the rest of the year.

So, do any of you guys ever use people like this? He gave instructions in his message on how to follow up on his promise. It doesn't really make sense how the hell he can put his reputation on the line.

If you want to verify this, his number is [edited by Performify]

I have never actually bet on sports, I just want to know what's the general consesus about people like this.

Sorry if I sound like a troll...im just a noob

He told 50% of callers to take Seattle. The other 50% think he's a genius and half of them will receive correct picks again next week.

Damn touts. What good is the guarantee that if they don't cover you get the rest of his picks for the year for free? What do you fade him then?

Predictions

Hasselback is intercepted twice, throws for 165 yards and has a passer rating of 62.4.

Grossman throws for 328 yards, two TD's and is not intercepted. I am not 100% sure what his passer rating will be, but it will be very high. Maybe 93.7.

Greek...this is how these touting services work...

They have two different radio advertisements...one side picks the bears and the other side picks seattle..whose who call the bears 800 number will get a call back from a telemarketer telling them about next weeks 10 STAR PICK OF THE YEAR! BLAH BLA BLAH.

IMO i made decent money in the past just following trends and power rankings but i;ll be the first to admit sometimes you just know a certain team is going to get their ass kicked that night if you know anything about sports. The only publication i would recommend is getting the weekly gold sheets. I always compare my pics to their picks and see if they have any good points i missed.

I'm 7-1 on the year on the NFL and I had the Bears tonight. You can follow me if you want.

Seriously, if you really want to take someone else's picks, there's tons of good information out there for free on the internet.
