Hey RJ -
Wanted to bump this thread because it's an important topic....
Just pulled this from Spreitzer's home page. He's not unique, but his blast today is a good example of some of the points discussed in this thread....
Analysis: I'm recommending a play on Michigan State minus the points over Ohio State on Tuesday. Please note: All premium plays on Tuesday include full analysis.
8-2, 80% all sports run since Saturday!
8-1, 89% CBB run last 10 days!
62% NBA run since Dec. 10!
22-10, 69% winning NFL run!
Grab Tuesday's 2-0 card, including my first 3* in the NBA of 2014! I've also posted a CBB Mismatch as we look to extend the CBB run to 9-1, 90%!

All short term references. All short term results. 80%, 89%, 62%, 69%, 90%!!! These are all numbers promoted by Scott and Scott alone. HE IS THE GUY PUTTING OUT THOSE NUMBERS.
My point is pretty simple......if he can reference short term results and numbers from 62-90%....then why can't the consumer expect those results???
NO long term references. NO long term results. NO offers for long term packages. NO discussion at all about becoming a successful long-term sports investor.
I tend to agree, short term focus is counter productive. But hey, you guys are the ones pumping the crap out of short term numbers every single day! Spreitzer's home page is a perfect example.
I'm no expert, but in my estimation, if a handicapper presents himself as a short-term specialist, then he will be evaluated, known for, and criticized as a short-term specialist. That's only fair, right?
Best wishes for a successful 2014 -
