Raiders.. what about Ace-Ace ?

ACE ACE would be a nice acquisition. He doesn't moderate
but he rocks in NFL & BKL. 10's of thousands of views in
his FBL threads.
 
Ace-Ace ahs the best record of any poster on any forum. He went a ridiculous 18-3 in the bowls or something like that.

His current posting is on the up and up but while winning he did post some wrong things. MAC may have been fixed but he claimed he had this info but gave out bad reasons fo it after the game.

He said he was getting free 1/2 points at books even off and on 3 and 7. He also said he could get down more than $500 on this.

Even with all this said no one can take away from his great record and he's been honest for a while now.

Everyone knows Shrink lost the ace-ace deal. Now whether or not he just thought the price was silly and said "fine, overpay for him", or he just didn't have enough $$ can be debated. I lean to #1.

As for ace... poster "hinesward86" clearly busted him three times for outright lies involving his soccer record. And he now has claimed that 5 games in total were "fixed, or funny", etc.

Doesn't matter though. He is the most valuable poster in the forum world. The key will be if he can do baseball. I am willing to say he won't.

With Bucs though, you get an unbelieveable contest grader. Very underrated and time consuming ability.

i wasnt doubting ace-ace's ability.. i was referencing the comment that no one can outbid shrink..

Ace-Ace came over here for an hour... then the RX outbid EOG and Ace-Ace went back..

There is a misconception in the air. Let's clear it a bit. Bucs could lose 400 units in bases and we are still happy having him here. He was a good mod and moreso a good person. We need all the good people we can get at EOG. It is nice to have worked with Bucs in the past and know what we are getting. Had he been a losing capper in bases for the last 3 years, I would have still been happy with his coming here to EOG. He brings a good work ethic and good initiative with him. Those things are very important to me.

Thanks Bucs

Let's not confuse an honest mistake with malicious lying.

UMM -400 units and we would all be happy?

He is posting baseball plays with a big following???

no no no. only happy people in that extreme case is the sportsbooks!

He is here at the start of baseball season for one major reason, bring baseball traffic and post plays, and he is here for a bunch of important minor reasons (like he is a great guy, great contests, great skills etc)

but lets make sure everyone is clear, if he loses 400 units in baseball we are not happy.

Ive caught the guy fudging his record also. The claims of inside information is ridiculous and tout like. His last two "insindise information" "funny" "fixed" "phone call" plays, whatever you want to call them are 0-2 both losses by 20 point blow outs. Clearly a basket case that lives to have his ego stroked, but a decent capper in football only, imo.
 
What happened here is Ace got a free 1/2 point off of 3. He then said the game was fixed. A poster asked if it had anything to do with the injury to Gradkowski. Ace said no. Then later he said he would play.

Gradkowski was really banged up and you could see it from the beginning. They took him out after the second half. After the game Ace claimed that he had info that Gradkowski threw the game but before the game said gradkowski had nothing to do with the game.

As others said he always claims to have inside info on fixed tennis and soccer games.

Soccer games have been fixed by referees. Tennis games are fixed such as the time the Russian tennis players were throwing games and later in the tourney games with the Russians were taken off the board.

As I said earlier the guy still has the all time best record that I've ever seen.
Here's some of the MAC game posts.

pete, i know bucky has experience as a moderator and that he is willing to grade contests (which is a lot of work that i would never want to do) and...you know i love you but...:+signs8-7 . call a spade a spade. you know that bucky was brought over mainly because he is a great baseball capper. if not, why did i get an email from eog today that said "announcing the hire of the #1 documented baseball handicapper on the internet"?

i dont disagree with the decision to hire him away from the r/x or his decision to accept the offer. happens all the time in every industry and there is nothing wrong with it...its the american way. shrinky is trying to increase traffic at this site and i'm sure this will do it. he's trying to create a win/win situation and if it works...its all good.

however, dont blow sunshine up my dress with this "he could lose 400 units" crap like his skills as a baseball capper are not important and "its just bucky the moderator that we hired". if that were the case, why not overpay for dante?

We offered Bucs a job here long ago. Early in the football season. He declined. We never mentioned baseball at the time. Bucs is a good moderator. Put that in your dress pocket and have a nice day. :+waving-5

ok but, you're telling me that you guys didnt up the ante to get him...right as baseball is starting?

:+drinking

never said bucky wasnt a good moderator...i'm sure he is. and, like i've stated before...nothing wrong with you luring him away or his decision to come. but, we all know his baseball capping had a lot to do with it.

Blue,

I guess the only way to know forsure is if Bucasfan starts the season 15-32 and the views on his thread go down.
