Ruff, I'm very sorry about the loss of your good friend. He was always a gentleman when he posted on our forums.

It's always tough to lose a dear friend or relative. My thoughts are with you and I know how you feel. He was a fun player and it was a joy to try and figure out why he would pick the horses be did to win and even better . . . they'd often WIN?!

Very sad news indeed. Criminal Type never had a bad word for anyone on the forum and was quite creative in his posts. When he and Ruffian arrived at the Final Turn together they never ever missed a race day. The day CT didn't post picks I feared the worst. Add dedicated to the description that Ruffian provided. Criminal Type will be missed as part of our extended family.
