WEDNESDAY NBA PLAYS for 12/17/08(READ CAREFULLY!!!!)

So as anyone can tell by my NBA record, I am having an ABYSMAL season, by any and all standards… this is the first time I am glad that not too many people have access to this site yet lol….so I am going to try something different…for the time being and until further notice, I am going to post ALL MY PICKS for the NBA, with the disclaimer that anyone looking should FADE ALL PICKS!!!! That’s right, I am informing anyone who reads my posts to actually FADE me!!!! Why, you may ask???? Because as a wise gambler once told me, “a 65% loser is just as important to find as a 65% winner…you just have to know which one the guy your following really is”   For whatever reason, I have been “HITTING” at a ridiculous clip, LOSERS in the NBA, following my way of capping. Therefore, I advice anyone and everyone to start FADING me, as we will see if this little experiment will work….
