No one should delete threads that are just about your picks . Own your picks. You'll be more respected & hey everyone loses. Everyone!!!
I picked TCU too. I thought they'd cover, win outright, or get blown out. I posted that in 'Kirdie's' thread. Unfortunately it was the later that I didn't bet on. Big deal, move on.
Mods rarely delete posts & threads from all the time I've been on this forum. If they do, it's surely not for posting picks & talking them up.
Kind of the whole point behind this site right? People's ego's actually get that hurt that they find the need to delete a thread(s). Come on!!
