Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

[Jeff Jones]

It was a beautiful night for baseball, fans, as both sides profited from the Boys of Summer, but randomness took the night.

MC picks for Monday:

Royals -107 W +1.07
Mets -111 L -1.11
A's +118 W +1.18

Total units: +1.14

Jeff Jones plays (the first 5 even rotation numbers):

952 Cardinals +103 W +1.03
954 Reds -151 W +1.0
956 Marlins -133 W +1.0
958 Astros -152 W +1.0
960 Rockies -116 L -1.16

Total Units: +2.87

I should have gone 5-0 but Coloarado did not live up to its usually reliable foul balls to broken bats ratio.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Nice to start the challenge off with both of you having winning nights. Let's see where it goes from here.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

I be getting worried. Where is Madcapper?

I need my picks for Tuesday. It's like four hours before the first kickoffs.

Hopefully, what drew so much attention on Sunday hasn't turned into a one-day wonder.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

It's getting late. Less than three hours before the games start on Tuesday.

I am only one man. I took so much abuse on Sunday from gamblers only because I care. I was there to offer a vehicle to reaffirm their belief in handicapping.

To sports gambling, it was as big as the Mars Landing.

Handicapping vs. Randomness.

What more primal question to sports gamblers than that? (Well, other than getting a 15% rebate after they've lost their asses.)

And Documented (What a unique concept there!).

Randomness wins the first night and Madcapper disappears?

Somebody pay his bail and get him in here. I need him to make my picks!

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Time is short. I'm gonna need a surrogate for Madcapper for Tuesday.. He must be off on a cruise or a binge. The experiment is at stake.

I'm am particulary intrigued by Mofome's baseball performance last night. Diaster. He's due. One flaw in EOG is that posters who win receive a few attaboys. Posters who lose just receive respectful silence like they weren't idiots the night before..

Maybe he wants to fill in to choose his games and my games. Can choose for me the other sides of his picks or pick anything else for me. Just give me the fair line at the time.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

I hate to belabor this. I realize I am the only one posting.

One and a half hours to go for my beloved baseball for Tuesday night..

Madcapper must have run off to Mexico. I invited Mofome to take his place and got jilted at the prom.

Are there any EOG world-class bravado-filled 20-something handicappers who want to post their picks and decide my picks? I'm perfectly agreeable.

I think this is why bookies succeed. (And they don't even have to pay my vig.)

Do I have the other side? I assume you like these bets. You have to post what you have decided for me on a 10-cent line.

What are my bets? Post my bets.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Just use my picks as your plays. Or fade them, don't care either way.

I made you the favorite to beat Madkosher in your original thread, so I just want to make sure this competition keeps going...

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Joey, Madcapper is finally back.

Sit down, bus driver.

Joey, Madcapper is finally back.

Sit down, bus driver.

Madcapper left after one day.

Mofome wants nothing to do with this.

Joey, as we enter tonight's card, just post for documentation what you are picking for me. We don't want any confusion.

Just state my bets you have chosen for me in writing. I am fine with them.

 

[Jeff Jones]

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Ten minutes. Do any of you geniuses want to post your bets and pick/post my losing bets for me?

Of course not. Nobody does.

Handicapping genius kinda fails in these moments. That is why there is Las Vegas and Offshore Gambling.

Jeffy Jones offical plays for 7/1

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

God, what an idiot. You have to post something for you.

We know Mad capper has proven less than worthless.

We understand that Mofome wants to EOG Hangon.

Joey, I understand that you are a gambling kid idiot, but that is not how gambling works.

You have to post both sides.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Jeff, you insolent fuck, I was posting these for you to play against madcapper. I didnt see the post where you said he quit.

Anyways, I have no interest in posting plays against you, nor anyone else for that matter unless there is $ on the line. Given that this forum is chock full of stiffs, I don't think that is going to happen. Continue entertaining yourself, Jeff. Maybe the crack dealer that lives across the hall will post plays against you.

I should have gone 5-0 but Coloarado did not live up to its usually reliable foul balls to broken bats ratio.

In the interest of science, I think this is still worthwhile. After making a big deal about it on Sunday, Madcapper bailed on me in one day after he lost. We move on.

Anybody want to take over for Madcapper?

Same deal as before. You pick all the "Games Of The Year" for yourself. You then pick the absolutely, positively worst baseball picks that you have ever seen (on that day) for me. 10-cent baseball line, and FAIR.

Saddle me with them. I become the virtual bookie here without the vig advantage.

I don't need 19 MTV snuffie/gamblers. I need one guy.

For science.

Somebody make OUR picks.

Jeff you are the freaking man. I love reading your insight. It's very helpful. Keep up the great work.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Jeff you are the freaking man.

Well, yeah.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

It's too bad that you and PACMAN couldn't change places

It's too bad that you and PACMAN couldn't change places

We all end up in the same place. That's how life works.

But Tankdog, are you ready to take up the challenge?

You pick your games, and you pick my games.

(Didn't I state no MTV snuffie/posters?)

 

[tankdog23]

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

No I'm not interested, no one can match your capping skills. You must be pretty rich by now with all that talent

 

[Jeff Jones]

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

I have a new groupie.

Believe me tankdog, I have no handicapping skills. I make my living off of you thinking you do.

Re: Monday Night At The Ballpark Experiment Results

Can I be a groupie, or am I already included?'
