Andrew Beyer's comments about TVG

[The Bid]

I think TVG does a fantastic job, the only thing I would have an open complaint about the West Coast bias they show. Im speaking of watching a 6k claimer at Golden Gate, while there are meaningful races going on somewhere else.

I dont think much of Andy Beyer, or his numbers. Andy Beyer has made a nice living selling his figures to the general public, people who cannot make a speed figure. Hes also inticed the public into thinking they are the end of of handicapping, when infact they are just as objective as you or I picking a horse we like more than another. When the variant changes, they choose to change it, maybe another handicapper wouldnt see fit to make a change in variant? Who knows, all Im saying is they arent as important as he would like to think, and to me hes not as important as he would like to think.

Now Todd Schrupp on TVG, hes too opinionated for having no clue what hes talking about. Matt Carothers is a good handicapper, B doesnt show you everything on the air, Simon is actually pretty good, and Frank, well Frank should stick to just telling you which ones are pretty. However, I would much rather here the guys talking over at TVG, than Jeff Siegal, or Milie Ball, or any of those jerkoffs on HRTV. Not to mention HRTV shows tracks Im for the most part not interested in.
