Funny, very funny.

:houra

It would be if he hadn't stolen it from Adam Carolla, who he saw on The Apprentice this year. If you all recall Jeff made a thread about the show here @ EOG... and that's a joke Adam Carolla makes on the first episode.

Get your own material, Jeff.

Re: Jeff Jones- Hit 60% and I'll donate $300 to Dinky's charity

Why don't you guys make a better offer? Donate $300 if he hits, and $100 if he doesn't. That way, you guarantee the charity something, and smoke Jeff out of his spiderhole. From Jones' perspective, he probably figures he won't hit the number, and the entire exercise becomes a JJ bash. Not that he can't take the abuse, but nothing is gained. Just my .02.12io4j2w90

I'll kick in $ 250 for this challenge... no way JJ can pick 60%. Hell, I'll donate if he can hit 55%. i'll do the same if Teddy can hit 55%. Neither one of them can hit anywhere that number over 100 picks. Alll JJ can do do is look for chips the tourists drop. And Teddy can't find his way home most nights much less pick winners at a 55% rate.

Really think this is the worst I could have done, imo I only had 2 lucky wins but 6 bad beats....throw in those 2 baseball overs/guesses when I was drunk off my ass and you get the picture.

Thanks Reagan and Peep for letting me clutter the main page with a pick thread

Posted 100 plays in one spot and you haven't posted 100 plays in your 10+ yrs on these sites.

Really it should be you getting a challenge from Kinger not JJ......

I'm assuming you are the poster 'rusty james' since you posted his record. If you can pick at that rate then why does your mom have to bail you out every couple of years?

I'm a grinner
I'm a lover

I'm a joker

I'm a mid-night toker

Re: Jeff Jones- Hit 60% and I'll donate $300 to Dinky's charity

I tried a contest with another EOG poster years ago. The deal was that he could pick anything he wanted using the WA line, and I would take the other side.

He quit after his first day's results.

If you wish to give money to a charity, give it.

What's the big deal? You're a posting legend for good or bad, and the boys just want to have a little fun, no cost to you. The mere act of you posting picks would increase the pot and make someone very happy. Think about it, most guys would never just write a check to a good cause, but if you attach a golf tournament or some other catch, voila, you have a nice donation. Why not name your own charity? I can't believe you don't see the upside to this, with no consequence to you. It's not like you have to put any money up. Nobody thinks you can select winners anyway, so it's a no-lose proposition.

Re: Jeff Jones- Hit 60% and I'll donate $300 to Dinky's charity

Re: Jeff Jones- Hit 60% and I'll donate $300 to Dinky's charity

My picking days ended with The Executive Club in the early 2000's on what was then the site, Fezzik's Place. My staff of analysts, Carlos and Shecky, are in the wind now, but we had a great run in our day in both football and basketball.

But I have learned much more about betting on sports since then. Always let the other guy pick the WA line and then fade. No need to pour over stats all day crunching numbers unless you just like to do that.

So, if you want to use me to raise money for charity, that's fine. Just don't make me do anything.

If you want to set a 60% win percentage as the bar, ok. But the only possible way I can do that is by having the EOG snuffies pick, and I get to fade the pick. It's like being the bookie without getting the vig! What a deal!

So, if you really want to raise money for charity, have some poster (hell, it can be a different poster everyday) make his picks against a fair line, and this persona "Jeff Jones" will take the other side.

It really would be a lot of pressure as there are only two outcomes....

1) Fading your picks propels me to 60%, and I become the Mother Teresa of all charities.

-OR-

2) I fall short of 60% in my non-gambling endeavor, and many worthwhile charities are left out in the cold because you couldn't constrain your inner-Sharpness.

Now do you want that to happen?

If you bothered to read the last few replies, you'd see that it's a no-lose situation for you AND the charity(s) so your point #2 is invalid. I'll volunteer to be the EOG 'stooge' and you can fade away to your heart's content. I'll PM you a pick each day and you can just post the opposite. That's about as far as I can imagine going with this, it takes you off the hook completely, and gets some money raised. How about it?12io4j2w90

Putting piece of shit trashbag hobo Jeff Jones on ignore was the best move I ever made here. Makes the site much better.

Anyone who thinks that Jeff Jones symbolizes anything other than what is wrong with America is blind. He's a pathetic loser that's bitter towards anyone with success because he himself is a life longer loser.

I meant to say picks, not pick. Post all you want. Somebody can keep the bookkeeping. Not me. Tell me if I won, and remember, there are some very deserving charities counting on me to get to 60%.

You guy's are brutal........Basically Kinger and some others are offering (very least hoping) that Jeff hit's under 60% (hoping for 40 or less) so they can do two things....

Say that they gave to charity without ever mentioning Jeff's participation

and

Hold his performance over his head on this site for ever.

Great Deal for Jeff....:shoot:

You gotta give it up. This post has been done numerous times over the years by posters quite a bit better than you. It just goes in my Gary Greene scrapbook.
