Brandon Lang Writeup

Brandon Lang Wednesday's Selection .... NOTE:
Flat out wrong side.

Misjudged the Lakers big time last night. They were just flat. Flat as a pancake from Waffle House.

Off the 3 game east coast road trip, heartbreaking loss to Orlando Sunday, 3,000 mile plan ride back to Los Angeles, jet lag and off 1 days rest, facing a Raptors team who had failed to cover 7 straight games, still to much for LA to overcome.

The double digit number got me and I am man enough to admit just a pathetic call with the Lakers last night.

However, don't lose sight of the big picture.

5 of 7 winning days.

7 of 11 winning days

40 dime winner CAL two Saturdays ago

30 dime winner Texas A&M last Wednesday

2 straight winning weeks

So despite the efforts of the Lakers last night, still in a great groove, overall my opinion is right there and what is happening right now is what is called a basketball winning streak.

Yes, every once in awhile even when you are on a great winning streak you will throw in the occasional clunker as I did last night but my numbers the last 2 weeks should tell you, show you, my opinion is right where it needs to be.

And seeing as this is the biggest money making month of the year in hoops, I am 100% satisfied with where my basketball opinion is heading into this game today.

All about seizing back the winning momentum tonight, get winning day # 6 of the last 8 and roll into Thursday.

5 DIME - OKLAHOMA STATE

They are just flat out the better team.

At 21-9 and some would say on the NCAA tourney bubble, the Cowboys probably have to win two games in this tourney to punch their ticket to the big dance but most certainly they have to win here.

Over their last 7 games they are 5-2 SU and ATS, with the two losses on the road at A&M and Texas.

This team is capable of big things as evidenced by their 85-77 home win over Kansas and a 7 point home win over Baylor.

In the two meetings this year Oklahoma State led at the half at Oklahoma eventually squandering a 2nd half lead and then losing by 5 in OT.

However, a little less than a month ago at home they tattooed this Sooner bunch to the tune of 97-76 in a game that wasn't even that close. As you can see, the Sooners are ready to call it a year as evidenced by their play to end the year losing their last 8, and 10 of their last 12.

To make matters worse for this ballclub who has obviously quit, 9 of those 12 losses have been by 7 points or more with 7 by double digits.

This tourney game today is about one team knowing they need to win to get to March madness and another team that knows they are going nowhere playing a team they know they can't beat.

Where is Blake Griffin when you need him?

Oklahoma State rolls to another double diigit win over the Sooners tonight.

40 dime winner CAL two Saturdays ago Quit living in the past, I picked the Super Bowl winner but who cares!

30 dime winner Texas A&M last Wednesday Again, that was then, this is now and what have you done lately.......

2 straight winning weeks WTF is he talking about.......:puke:

Brandon According to Stiff.....:

As of March 9, 2010:

IF YOU HAD FOLLOWED LANG: 5-5 / -1 dime

IF YOU HAD FADED LANG: 5-5 / -11.5 dimes

FREE PLAYS OVERALL RECORD: 4-4

[Stifler's Mom]

That's how he manipulates his record.

The reason he actually DID have 2 straight winning weeks is because his weeks run from Tuesday to Monday, for some reason. Maybe because of MNF during football season? So even though he is slightly in the minus from March 1 until the present, with the way he calculates his weeks, he did come out ahead at the end of each week.

He's just releasing one play a day lately, and when he hit the bigger unit ones and he got ahead, all he did was release 5 dimers the rest of the week so win or lose, he'd be able to brag up his winning week. I think he's doing this to say he had 3 straight winning weeks (if he's able to get another one this week) just to lure dummies into buying his March Madness picks. I'm guessing that during the tourney his dime values will skyrocket, along with the number of plays per day just like they did during NCAAF bowls, NFL playoffs, etc. He just wants to draw people in, then give em what they want....lots of plays on "public" sides for big dime amounts. That way he can brag if he wins, and if not then his "followers" can sympathize right along with him because they probably liked the same plays anyway, and will feel like it was the right side anyway, despite the loss.

My guess is that if Okla St loses today and he's down 11 dimes for the week, he'll come back with at least a 15 dimer Thursday to chase those losses. That's his style, and that's alot of the reason why his dime units always end up way in the red eventually, because he bets BIGGER on a LOSING streak, increasing his losses....and LIMITS his amounts on a WINNING streak, limiting his profits. That and the fact that he bets huge amounts on every "big" game, not because the play is stronger, but it's because what his "clients" want.

Right now he's doing ok, so the plays are limited and the amounts are down, but if he gets behind, the units will increase and the extra plays will fly, imho.

I agree about living in the past too. I mean how many times is he going to tout that 40 dime win on Cal win from like 2 weeks ago? :puke:

Thanks for posting that Joe, I always though he's been on the losing side and in the negative profit wise. Best line to date.............

"Flat as a pancake from Waffle House". He should REALLY quit his day job and go night club comic.:pud:
