I post here with my real name.

I share my honest thoughts.

Own them when I'm wrong.

I'd like to know about you.

Who are you? What do you do? Where do you live?

What makes you tick?

Why should we all accept your opinions as gospel?

You have the luxury of getting personal with many people. Passing judgment on them.

Tell us about DAHOSS

Wife, kids, job?

Normally it should be none of our business.

That's the sanctuary of the internet. But you've crossed that line so many times.

And not just with me. I'm only around for brief snipets. But I check in and see you being VILE and HATEFUL to legions of others.

Attacking them personally.

Let's hear about you.

Hey Vic if you were getting paid to handicap a track and they had steeplechase races, would you do your job? Or cry it’s too hard and post No picks ? You know those big scary jump races that they have at Saratoga every year. And would you bully your cohost not to try it either ?

What I ought to do. Is copy and post the private messages I receive on this site imploring me to not deal with you.

How they stopped participating because of you.

How they hate all the horrible things you say.

How they feel bad for me.

But that's where it stops. It's then I tell them I appreciate the sentiments. But I promise them it's OK. That I DON'T take anything you say to heart.

That it's the mindless distraction of the internet.

It's those people I feel badly for. They honestly care.

I could copy and paste 50 messages over the years from people who have been worn down by you and just given up.

Why does doing that to people give you such joy?

They're called PRIVATE messages.

I have respect for the people who sent them.

It does say alot about the power, well it's not power, intimidation is a better word, that people don't want to waste their time dealing with you.

They clearly are smarter than me.

Please tell the truth. You can't REALLY think I care about anything you say?

You can't REALLY think that?

I never post here any more because it's simply a no win situation. There are just too many a-holes here. Who wants to deal with guys like Da Hoss? They make the site a totally unfun experience. I put much of the blame on Steve. I have no idea why he allows all the bullying. If this was my site I would never allow it. I'm surprised you are willing to put up with all the abuse. Keep up the good work! And don't let the haters get you down!

Haskell or The Travers. Epicenter looks like a horse who could win another 4 races this year. I wouldn't want to risk that by running in the Preakness. What do you think? PS: It's a shame we can't have these discussions on the board. But there are just too many pricks on there.

Hello Mr Stauffer,

I see you had a nice exchange with
Derbytrail's dynamic duo.

I know I'm no one to anyone here,
but I know from personal experience now
that these 2 troubled souls
are not worth anyone's time.

Sorry you had to find that out too .

That's just the last few weeks.......

I can prove to you I think this is all in fun and I don't take it to heart.

Let's SHOCK THE WORLD and call a truce. A Detente!

From this post forward let's make believe we are both brand new posters.

That we know nothing of anything that has ever been said.

I forgive you for anything bad you've said about me or anyone else.

You do the same.

In the old days of bowling it was called a fence. Draw a line after the 4th frame and start anew.

I think this could be a great site if we were civil to each other.

Let's give it a try. How about a 30 day cease fire?

Just the trading of horse racing views and opinions without personal attacks.

Let's show DERBY TRAIL we can be bigger than the petty sniping.

Let's start right now with this olive branch.

Deal?

But you don’t take it to heart. LOLOLOLOLOL

None of that matters.

Are you man enough to move forward in a positive manner?

Just 30 days?

You can keep notes and rip me on the 31st day.

Let's do it for the other people on the site.

C'mon. Let's do it.

I think it will be fun.

The guy was literally at shows in Memphis and Birmingham with me....but it's inconceivable that I went to over 20 shows a year for the 14 years I was touring. Math is hard.

You’re back to pandering. Be yourself. Stop trying so hard to be nice. You’re not fooling anyone here.
