Nice agenda, Fowler. You couldn't PM Andy and take it up with him personally? Now look...

1. I've hit many bets by following his plays on Talking Horses.

2. He almost always answers my PM questions.

3. My kids approached him in the paddock several weeks ago. Despite his hectic schedule on race days, and not knowing them from Adam, he spoke to them for a bit.

As my mother used to tell me, "Go do something constructive!"

Everybody has cold streaks. Most of us are fortunate enough to have them privately. People like Andy and Doug don't have that luxury.

To the OP- Sorry that your post got blown out of proportion. I got what you were saying.

The best message board posters/handicappers are gonna troll, and you gave them the ammo. But I interpreted your post as positive. I wish you didn't follow up with that low paying NYRA gig post, but I get the positive intent in the original post.

Trollers gonna troll.

He pretty much exposed himself as the troll and here you are defending him? His posts have been only meant to slight, as anyone with a shred of a brain can see.

what? The original post was that Andy Serling was cool enough to admit that his picks weren't good at Toga lately. That was the intent.

So it caused his friends to go broke. OK. But what the OP was saying was that he thought it was classy that Andy tweeted/admitted (which he did, I saw the Tweet) that his picks weren't good lately.

Now that whole thing about the low-paying NYRA post was really stupid to add, but the original post's intent was positive.
