Danny Mac referenced this thread on the air today. He said, "don't believe what some on a message board might say, but I had a great year". I stand by what I said. I have been listening to Mac for twenty years, but never for his handicapping expertise. He is down quite a few jelly beans over the years. He was thumping his chest, because he was in the black this year. I guess if I made horrible picks for twenty years, and then had a good year, I would probably brag about it, too.
I have been posting my picks here for years. I can have six great weeks in a row (picks actually documented before the game begins, as opposed to just saying I have winners), and nobody says a word. As soon as I have one bad week, someone lets me know about it. It comes with the territory, and thick skin is required. Certainly, a big shooter like Mac doesn't need to worry about anything I say, but judging by his tone, I struck a nerve. Sometimes the truth hurts. It reminds me of the time I took on Scott Ferrall.
