Different things work. The difference is that you are so dogmatic that you refuse to understand this and insist on mocking others for seeing many sides to the game.

Nice deflection on your Zenyatta nonsense. Then again, you can't answer the question, because all it does is further expose your built-in hypocracy.

I was in the office all day yesterday and have no idea about what happened at BEL. I'm not dogmatic-- I bet all sorts of trips. Clearly, you can't believe that someone who uses no figures, of any kind, yet has a competitive opinion would be 'dogmatic'? Is Mariano 'dogmatic' because he only relies on a single pitch?

I also don't think I mock any more than anyone else here.

Once upon a time you were a trip handicapper. Now, you're a NYRA and DRF/BEYER shill. You're indoctrinated and the best part of what you do/represent is suppressed for the 'cause'. You're clearly the Christopher Clavius of present day racing.

This is as laughable as it is disgraceful.

Now that I have the time to answer this crap in more detail.....

I work for NYRA, so of course I promote what we do, but whether you like it or not, I also happen to believe in what we are doing, whether they are the best of times or less so. I neither lie to nor deceive people....nor would I ever. As for the BEYER/DRF shill comment.....this is utter BS. I have used the DRF Formulator product for many years, and always felt it was the best available product, and am proud if in any way I have helped even one horseplayer by bringing it to their attention. As for Beyer, please find ONE other public handicapper that intelligently disagrees with specific figures, on the air, even 1/10th as much as I do. Just because I say why, and do it in a fair manner, does not mean I am shilling or defending them. And, feel free to ask Beyer if there is anyone that discusses differences of opinion over figures more with him than I do outside of his business associates.

As for the rest, where you suggest what I do has been suppressed....this is the biggest pile of sh it you have ever laid on any message board....and that's saying something. I am forthright in my discussion of races, trips, and rides, and I dare you to prove otherwise with actual examples.

This was a disgraceful cheap shot on your part....and frankly you should know a lot better. I don't care if someone doesn't like my style, or agree with my opinion, or even like me....but if you are going to criticize me, do yourself the favor of doing it with at least some accuracy.

Well, she is an interesting counterexample of how an owner that is confident in his ( or her ) horse can campaign it....especially if they aren't afraid to lose.

Then again, Rachel Alexandra already demonstrated that as well last year.

Holy cow man. How many times did you say "I" in that post?

You can't be this self-deluded. I think if I ever saw a thread in The Paddock that didn't include you repeatedly using the about someone or something, my head would explode.

Shouldn't you really be more concerned with the continued use of the
whenever you hit one of those 3:1 pick3's or 4's, rather than focusing on what I'm doing?

btw, where was my for that 31:1 shot?

Clearly, you jest, Joey. So now use of smilies is being held against posters?

Your shtick is extremely tired. Anything valuable you have to say is drowned by a sea of unnecessary jabs and attacks. Just like that 31-1 winner was drowned in Selections by about 400 missed "one number" exactas.

400? That's about what your pick3/4 combos look like for a given day. Remember, it's all about properly structuring your tickets.

And, actually, at least during one of those sequences, when you were taking multiple BOWS for hitting a 20 number or whatever pik3 or 4 that got you back 8:1 (or something like that), I hit a 14:1 one number. Of course, I didn't feel the need to take bows. And you're forgetting my one number 50:1 Lloydobler exacta. I get it, Joey: you don't like me. And you think that you're a better handicapper than me. On the other hand, you provide quite a bit of amusement with your post race comments. Sort of like the Eric Donovan of the board, if you will.

Shouldn't you be hard at work putting together one of those multi-race multi-number, super lucrative combos?

No one likes you. And this is a perfect example of why. You take repeated shots at how I play and the tickets I cash, when I never brought up handicapping or suggested I was better than anyone. Multiple bows? You've got issues. I say thank you, once, if people choose to say congrats on a hit. The day when I start caring about what some miserable degenerate thinks of my plays is the day I stop playing the horses. So thanks for the advice, but I'm good.
