Interesting Development In California

As much as I hate to agree with Dahoss, how can anyone think what Stauffer did was OK.

Stauffer wanted the job. He knew the job was recently filled by Wrona. Instead of badmouthing Wrona and explaining how stupid the board was to give the job to anybody else, Stauffer uses a surprisingly smart technique by writing some puff piece extolling how much he loves Fair racing and how much he misses it and how it was his family that forced him to leave a job who would have done for free. Did he mention Wrona's name? No but who cares, he didn't have to nor would it have been a smart move to do so. Instead he prays on the soft side of the people on the board and asks them to be the callous assholes that he is by removing Wrona and bringing back himself.

Nice job Vic. You are a real class act.

Its not as simple as who cares? Its really not even news at all, someone clearly had an axe to grind. 3 different boards, the exact same post, by the exact same poster. Is that OK? Is it out of line for me to bring that up?

What does Rocktard get paid for the handicapping gig? Chocodiles?

Two boards. Since I post at both, I thought I would post it at both.

I realize you make it a habit of NEVER telling the truth, but I won't let you get away with your lies.

He has no axe to grind. Dahoss is simply pointing out something that happened in this industry that was a scummy thing to do that was perpetrated by someone who has been mired in conflicts of interests throughout his career. I, for one, am glad that Mr. Dahoss has brought this to all of our attentions.

considering your posting history, i'd wager many would say yes to that question.

I don't know who's stupider. RTH for being himself, or Hoss for letting himself become engaged in a prolonged dialog with RTH.

I don't know man. You've actually talked with him and helped him out with stuff right? Where does that put you on the stupid scale?

Im not sure whats hes still saying, because hes been blocked for about 10 days now, but are you blind? He follows me around EVERY THREAD, ON 2 DIFFERENT FORUMS. Its crystal clear, at least a few people see it.

Pretty surprising you are making stuff up. So unlike you.

Yeah. My experience with him was that he would say whatever he needed to say to deny any responsibility for himself. I think he actually would believe himself too.

Glad to see that things are going good around here. Hi Hossy!

In re-reading it I am understanding more where you guys are coming from.

Specifically the part where he says he will do the job for half price or free. That is crossing the line when someone else has already been hired to do the job. I still have no problem of expressing your desire to do a certain job and trying to help yourself out in the future, but the lines about the pay should not have been in the letter.
