For one, because it's stupid. Two, the name sucks. Three, I'd rather light myself on fire than give your latest attempt at attention any further thought. It's a lot more fun to just mock.

Not to give the leader for the third slot in the desperate for attention Trifecta on DT any undeserved credit, but bets that rely on horses running poorly will never work......for the obvious reasons.

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.

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.
