You bastard! hahaha

My biggest thing is that most people I've come across online are VERY secretive about how they go about handicapping. I don't know the real reason, but I suspect that with most people it's a) they don't want a lot of people doing what they're doing, fearing that if everyone did it, it may not work anymore, or b) they feel like their methods are inferior, and they're afraid to get called out for doing what they do, even if it's profitable.

Hopefully I'm way off on my theory, and I just haven't run across the right people yet. There is plenty of information exchanged here, and I think most people feel like this is a "safe" place to explain how they do what they do without fear of being harassed. It could also be that, like you mentioned in your latest blog entry, I'm being lazy and not looking hard enough. If that's the end result, then I accept that I'm a lazy turd, and will eventually dig deep enough to get better direction.

agree with this sentiment 100%
