Hoss ? You’ll note that’s on $800 wagered. Certainly better than your last 2 years of 2 a days in the red. Right ?

Right ?

Hey Vic if you were getting paid to handicap a track and they had steeplechase races, would you do your job? Or cry it’s too hard and post No picks ? You know those big scary jump races that they have at Saratoga every year. And would you bully your cohost not to try it either ?

All because you couldn’t get free Phish tickets.

I forgot about the supposed lying about number of shows I went to. That's like the cherry on top of the cherry!

The guy was literally at shows in Memphis and Birmingham with me....but it's inconceivable that I went to over 20 shows a year for the 14 years I was touring. Math is hard.

HOSS

I can prove to you I think this is all in fun and I don't take it to heart.

Let's SHOCK THE WORLD and call a truce. A Detente!

From this post forward let's make believe we are both brand new posters.

That we know nothing of anything that has ever been said.

I forgive you for anything bad you've said about me or anyone else.

You do the same.

In the old days of bowling it was called a fence. Draw a line after the 4th frame and start anew.

I think this could be a great site if we were civil to each other.

Let's give it a try. How about a 30 day cease fire?

Just the trading of horse racing views and opinions without personal attacks.

Let's show DERBY TRAIL we can be bigger than the petty sniping.

Let's start right now with this olive branch.

Deal?

You’ve posted this probably 15 times over the years. You know the answer.

But you don’t take it to heart. LOLOLOLOLOL

I do get paid to handicap at a track. I would handicap camel races at Oaklawn if they asked.

What an incredible gift from god to be able to feed my family by going to the races every day and get paid to do it.

As for bullying. That person has stated publicly he was sorry for crossing the line that time and apologized. As far I'm concerned it's over.

Other incidents, where IMO the line is flirted with but not crossed is just good TV.

Nancy and I walk that same tightrope at Oaklawn and the racing public has responded very favorably.

Dan, I get that you're a very stupid guy. You forget, I know you, so I speak from experience. However, this is even moronic for you. The reason I don't make picks in the Steeplechase races is that I have no level of expertise in those races and feel the betting public deserves better than my lack of relative understanding. As such, I went out and hired an expert. It's actually more work for me, as I have to learn enough about those races to lead him during both Talking Horses and prattles. However, I respect the public enough to at least try to do what is best for them. No, I don't bully my regular cohost, this too is idiotic, as I have another cohost for the jump races, one who is an expert in the field. The people in charge of jump racing are, not surprisingly, extremely pleased that I take their racing seriously enough to do this. The idea that you can't make these logical conclusions for yourself speaks volumes about both who you are and who you think you are.

But, hey, keep tweeting this idiocy to Pat McKenna. He now knows what you are as well.

What a cop out. Why wouldn’t you even bother to give it a try at some point. They got rid of the last 2 fences so you have no excuse now . Does it bother you and Pat McKenna that the attendance at Saratoga is 99% white and there is no attempt for some diversity, only at generating more income ? Does it bother you that the prices for all the fancy spots up there are too high to even list ? You’re in a position to look out for the players, but you don’t. As long as you keeping grabbing that $5grand a week check, you’re good. Every man has his price.

I didn’t think you could make a more embarrassing post than when you accused me of preventing Byk from getting a TV gig.

I was wrong.

You're a posting tragedy. Even when faced with the honest truth you continue to embarrass yourself. I made picks for years, as you know, and they sucked....so I found a better way to present it. What's next, you pretending I don't take my job seriously? It's clear you are prepared to embarrass yourself continuously, so why not?

I've lowered myself enough responding to you. You're a bad person Dan. What you did to me is beyond disgraceful. I get faceless idiots smearing me. It comes with the job. We were friends....and you turned into a backstabbing piece of garbage because a late ticket request, on one of the biggest Saturdays of the year, wasn't fulfilled. You can pretend this isn't true, but you know it is, and so does every other honorable person here. If you have even one moment of introspection, you will see the sad truth in this.

Still, it's not too late. A simple apology and an ability to move on would be enough for a second chance. The ball is in your court. However, this offer only lasts until your next smear and lie.

This post needs to be examined further.

Saratoga is 99% white? Not sure where you get your numbers from since you're there for 2 days every year, but I digress.

What should they be doing to change that?

Steeple Chase racing will bring that Diversity.

Saratoga needs to become more like the bastion of Diversity.

Thanks for playing.

Drive home safely.
Did you fall and hit your head over the weekend? Your posting is getting stranger and stranger.

This is a 4 year old thread about a contest someone here was running. Why would you post about the KY Derby challenge here?
