TVG Todd looks like a slob

The set looks like my living room. They are getting a little lax. Is grunge coming back?

Maybe they started basing their pay on the ROI of their picks.

Last time I criticized a TV host......

I started a thread a month, or so, ago poking some fun at an HRTV presenter's limited knowledge of elementary US history.
Thread got shut down. Imagine that.

Perhaps, the presenter you are having a go at here is less well-connected than the one I took a small shot at. Mine has had substantial investments in bloodstock enterprises over the years, so he carries more clout with the powers-that-be on this website. I believe that Mr. Schrupp is not held in such high esteem in these parts. He is looked upon by many as a college educated, smart alec type, who would never have an affect on advertising at sites like this. My guy just might have, I guess.

I think you're safe enough, Teddy.
I just chose the wrong guy.

If that was the case, Shrupp should be doing his show out of an abandoned building in the Bronx.

They want to look like slobs so most of their audience will feel they have something in common with their hosts.

People don't bet from home wearing a suit and tie.

I'm thinking something between "suit-&-tie" on the one hand, and "I sleep under a bridge" on the other hand, might be the ticket.
