Well, then, we were right.

However, I doubt I said he was an " obvious " toss. Not, however, the kind of horse I would bet.

Assuming they go:

Dr. Decter has to be a BET AGAINST.

and...


I think it's far from 'nonsense' to call Dr. Decter a bet against. He obviously can win, but is an almost certain underlay.

The only reason I bring it up is that as a group we were not that far of from hitting the damn thing. If we were more focused on the positives from the efforts the group would likely make a ton of money instead of dividing itself into fractions of ineptitude of which I am as guilty as anyone here. Let's get something going for omorrow and put this nonsense behind us.

So no one can say anything about the card unless it's Pick 6 related? I don't remember that being the rule.

And I was one who almost hit the damn thing, so I obviously never would've called Dr. Decter an obvious toss.

I agree though, that it's time to move on to tomorrow.

What this really sounds like is a redboard. As a group? Huh? Was there some mythical $20K ticket that was being played with everyone's opinion that would have hit this thing? Because, even if Dr. Decter was singled ( a pretty brash assumption ) then how exactly were all the other winners going to get on a ticket?

Anyone that thinks my opinion ( I can't speak for the Fat Man ) suggested leaving him completely off a Pick-6 ticket would completely misconstrue my thoughts in this thread and just about everything I have ever said publicly. He was clearly an A in any serious Pick-6 play....just not a horse I would key on in individual race bets. These are two very seperate concepts.

with all kidding aside..the heated jabs are getting old.. if people suggest that a horse has a chance in a race lets lose the big head and discuss the reasons why..the intolerent or the more expert cappers would do well by steve and all to teach and mentor than ridicule and scowl..the reasons we all love this game differ. but some of the board members might enjoy an open exchange of ideas....i for one will do my best to help this transition ...

hooves..
