Yep.

Save, the Big A who is a wonderful person, all of Andy's partners have raised their game and become better at their job. While in a sick demented way I would love to see you and Andy do A show, I am not sure either of you or the audience would get much out of it save the entertainment value. We have enough gimmicks in racing.

Serling would have to pick up his game with a superior capper like Vic on the desk. If the Fox TV people were interested in helping the players, Byk and Vic are the 2 best around, and should be the first team.

The village idiot thinks I need to raise my game.

If only I had interrupted a busy Whitney Day to get him those Phish tickets. If I had just done that, he wouldn't make such a constant fool of himself all over the internet.

Anyone have a spare time machine?

You don’t think you’ve lost a step ? Still think you’re above handicapping the steeple chase races huh ? You don’t think all the hate for you out there is because you’re so good a capper ? Your personna on Fox as opposed to talking hosses is so different. You know that berating of mr. stabile would never fly on Fox. If you’re gonna play the villain, don’t be such a baby. Go block yourself .

Thank goodness I don't count on him to handicap he sucks 67.5% of the time maybe 64.7%. He doesn't make a living because he is a great handicapper he makes a living trying to be the best handicapper and helping others do the same.
Bro, I have two in section J for Whitney call me I got you

The idea that Stabile needs...or even wants Vic and Dan the Village Idiot defending him is laugh out loud funny.

Not as funny as thinking someone is above handicapping steeplechase races, but close.

You know me, I'm lazy and shirk my responsibilities. I guess admitting you aren't particularly good at something, and going out of your way to get someone better, means I'm above it.

If that guy ever gets even one thing correct it will be a miraculous accident.

Why would it be a gimmick Freddy? We're both good handicappers. I assume if pitted against each other we'd get even better.

One thing I think both Andy an I have in common is to teach rather than tout.

Explain how we got to the selections.

I think that would be beneficial to players who are looking to learn.

This is either the most elaborate troll job of all time or the worst way to try and get a job I’ve ever seen.

The funny thing is, what you’re really trying to do usurp Stabile. Which, as we know is something you’re notorious for.

But doesn’t that kind of make your “defending” of him make no sense?

Either way, I can’t imagine Tom Durkin doing all this schtick. He let his calls do the talking. He didn’t feel the need to pander and self promote non stop and everyday.

Imagine Durkin getting on a message board and telling people he thought he was currently calling better than at any point in his career? Imagine Durkin saying his calls have been clear, concise, accurate and exciting?

We get it Vic. You think a lot of yourself. Maybe if you took a break from telling everyone how great you are, others might feel the same way?

Just a thought.

One of the many things that make Tom Durkin the GOAT. Is he's much too smart to ever get involved in social media.

I on the other hand am not.

I've always enjoyed the banter.

Tina thinks I have a screw loose. She's probably right.

Since this thread is supposed to be about Secret Oath.

What do you think about the rider switch from Contreras to Saez?

Lukas made the switch one race too late.

Nothing against Contreras, but he's not Saez.

Take off a guy who had just won 3 in a row on her? Two of them Stakes. And worked her every time she breezed for three months?

I don't know any trainer that would make that change.
