Apparently you forget how one gets their....My winning total in NY is still the highest total ever in 20 contests in their history and I am still the youngest person to ever win one of their tournaments as well. But ok Scavs.

He hardly needs me to defend him, but seriously? You think your handicapping accomplishments > his? What channel can I catch you on again?

Its not about accomplishments at all in fact its about money. And you don't make money in this game routinely betting favorites. I took a stand on a horse 4 years ago and was wrong. If Andy had more of a life he wouldn't be digging up 4 year old posts. Says more about him than me but whatev.

All I know is that both GBBob and Pweizer know that I let them finish ahead of me in the NHC that we all played in. They were too nice for me to not let them beat me. All I got was a NTRA goody bag, if I had been in line to get a trophy like Scavs I certainly would have handicapped more the night before the final round instead of calling that girl whose name DrugS gave me.

I don't think you've got a shot at getting a trophy just like Scav, you're in 63rd in the Derby Trail Contest... I don't think you'll be able to catch Duvalier this year.

But play again next year, I think you'd have a real good chance.

Nah, I'm cheap speed. I had been given a pair of new shoes by Marty Wolfson prior to my NHC qualifying win. Now I can barely get out of bed in the morning.

I finished in the top 50 in the Red Mile Quarter Horse handicapping contest once.

I think there were 60 entries that beautiful night... I'll never forget my sense of accomplishment.
