So, then you're against betting exchanges?

It's interesting. I get the average jerkoffs on the internet that twist things others say in pathetic attempts to be smug. However, I thought, believe it or not, that you were better than that.

I was wrong. It happens.

Wow, I haven't been on DT for a while. It seems like the mood has gotten far angrier than usual.

I wasn't being smug or twisting anything. You said bets that require one to pick a losing horse never work. I then asked if you were against betting exchanges, which require that very thing. I mean, was it not a legitimate question?

So far, I have gotten three explanations for why my idea for a bet can't work:

1) Because it's stupid
2) Bets that make you pick the winner can't work
3) The name is stupid

Feel free to add to the list.

I didn't see the question mark.

That changes everything. Well, maybe not everything.

Who's angry?

The guy who alluded to me as a pathetic, smug jerkoff.

That would sort of qualify as cutting and pasting....don't you think?

I better go before someone mistakenly thinks I'm being serious and then decides to use the opportunity to take an idiotic shot.

Oops, too late.

So, then you DO like the idea of my bet? I'm confused here. Where was the mistake on the part of me and the other posters?

A title of Pathetic, smug jerkoff around here should be a badge of honor... certainly nothing to get defensive about.

I'm seriously considering only posting in the form of Haiku's from now on.

Yo Andy,

You're a hell of an handicapper and I really enjoy watching you on NYRA but you need to get over that small guy complex.
What's the deal with putting eveyone down? You have a career that most us on this site are jealous of so chill out dude.
