These guys are not new.There will always be guys trying to make money off of cappers.They are the Carlton Sheets of the horseracing world.Like him,they claim to make $$ from doing something,but in actuality they make money by selling books,tapes,and articles on "how to" do something.If they were so great at doing this "something,"then they would just get paid from doing that.They make money off of other handicappers.Do you dispute this?
Probably the most offbase comment that I can recall seeing from someone that is a regular. Should they just print the form as a charity? Of course they make money on selling their information. I never hear them tout their products in a "Carlton Sheets" manner promising to make you rich. Also I don't recall them claiming to be making money from handicapping.

Question for you, how do you go about handicapping without purchasing information from some source? I don't think you can just wing it or have the time to collect your own data. Are all data services therefore parasites?
