They helped me to a 5th place finish in the BCBC and a return of $165,000. That was preceded by finishes in 13th, 9th and 7th place.

BTW I thought your daily handicapping during Saratoga was quite good. That said I'd still be happy to go head to head vs you for any amount you feel is appropriate.

Or better yet. Loser has to agree to walk away from ALL social media for life. You man enough to risk your $$$ or DT life? Doubt it. Too much fun trying to make each and every person you deal with feel horrible. @thetriptracker
You're an outstanding handicapper. What is weird is I am jealous of your success in this space. Typically, I don't have a jealous bone in my being; I am thrilled when Nick's horse wins, or Andy's horse at 8/1 runs tremendous, or when Scully(never met, never communicated with) hits the pick "whatever". For some reason, I am jealous of your expertise and success in handicapping, and I guess it says more about me than you.

We all know duh hoss is way too chicken **** to get in a handicapping contest with Vic. After all, a proven loser has no chance against a skilled proven winner like Vic.

I have an idea! The winner gets front-row tickets to the next Phish concert on me.

Seems like a SHARP POST to me.

To quote the GREAT actor Rod Steiger from the iconic film IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT

To DA-WHATEVER and ANDY " I don't think this is an opportunity you can pass up"

The chance to kick my butt at the windows and shut my POS, arrogant, narcissistic, blowhard et al mouth up.

How can it get better?

Two against one and a decided home court advantage.

Saratoga is FAR from my wheelhouse. My comfort zone is OAKLAWN and SO. CAL.

Banishment of me from all forms of social media is on the line still as well.

And I'll put up $110 for every $100 you risk.

You did the work last year, which was superb BTW, so this won't be any bigger burden of your valuable time.

Just tell us if you accept or not.

No need to reiterate what a horrible POS person I am. We got it.

This is time to put up or explain why you're too chicken to try to knock me off my high horse.

On Twitter you can still read the Tweets of people who you've blocked.

I've read yours.

A very small fraction are about me.

The rest are cruel, hateful, disgusting and worse.

Seemingly from a very dark place.

Aren't there any people in your life that you wouldn't want to see that hate and vulgarity?

People who look up to you?

Seems odd to block someone and then read their tweets. Almost like I'm in your head or something.

The rest is so laughable it's not even worth my time.

Cool tattoo by the way. You should have gotten a tattoo on your lower back that reads "The Panderer"

Lot's of things you don't seem to want to respond to.

Your behavior and how it impacts the people around you.

The offer of the Saratoga contest?

Truth be told if you could replicate last year I probably wouldn't win.

You were close to $2.00 ROI which taint easy McGee.

But I expect we'll never know because you don't have the guts to take me on.

Glad you liked the tattoo.

I'll take the "panderer" suggestion under advisement.

Thanks for the kind words. I've never understood why but for some strange reason unless it's a family member or VERY VERY close friend we handicappers tend to sting when someone else wins. I'm guilty of that myself. I hate that I feel that way. But it does happen. Maybe it's because tackling the windows is such a competitive thing. I don't think it says anything bad about you.

I hope everyone wins. Even people I don’t like. I can’t root against anyone.

I don't mean rooting against anyone.

I don't do that.

It's more the jealousy you spoke of.

I feel it too sometimes.

I wouldn't kick yourself too much for that.
