Harvey Pack should know
 

The handicappers on OTBTV are pros and do handicap everyday of the year.

If it wasn't for OTB, Mr. Pack would not be in our living rooms.

And, exploiting children as handicappers on the "air" is not good TV or a responsible act.

WTF are you talking about??

I'm not going to lower myself to what you are desperately attempting to stir up here, but Harvey had zero to do with Jake Romans being MY guest yesterday. How exactly was Jake " exploited " yesterday?

And, furthermore, it was Jake's father, Dale Romans, who spoke to me about Jake being on. I was more than happy to have him as a guest and hope he can come back next year.

I enjoyed the show yesterday, and thought it was great seeing Jake up there.

Your not really serious about this one are you????

Your Screen Name "stall Mucker' Is Very On Point. What Freaking Balls You Have....this A Very Weak Attempt To Start Shiet..90 Perc Of People Who Would Care To See The Siros Seminars ..would Think Its Very Interesting To See A Kid Who Has Some Talent In Picking Winners At The Track..just As A Opra/or Classic Concert Goer Would Be Impressed At A Child Prodigy Musican..

oH reallY?

Simple, common sense professionalism.
No desperation Throat. No stirring. I like Harvey. I think he's a real character. Sometimes he throws shots at others that don't come across as funny as he's trying to be.
As far as the young lad, I just don't think it was a good call.

whO dO yoU thinK yoU arE? rogeR eberT?

capps lock off..:rolleyes:

No Coach not Roger Ebert. Roone Arledge.

I picture him more as that fella...

Really, who gives a sh1t what a 10 year old kid is doing on a summer day at 12 noon?

They have kids on CNBC picking stocks and on Jeopardy!.

Did the kid pick a couple of winners?

He is a much better poker player than handicapper, btw

did the kid give out any winners??


I dont know whats up with this supposed moral authority here. There has been a million stories on here about Parents taking their kids to the track... or people here who used to go way back when... I cant see anything wrong with having Jake Romans on the show. I'm sure it will be a memorable experience for the boy also.

Is he a connoisseur of food like his father?

I took my daughter to the track quite frequently.
A good way to get kids interested in numbers.

Of course now that she is a tatoo artist I blame myself.

I took my kids to the track as well, even bet for them. I now take their kids to the track.
I probably agree that children on TV handicapping is not a good idea.
