He's saying that the free play doesn't represent the value of the service.

My take would be that even if it doesn't, how else does a prospective client judge the merit of possibly subscribing? Just a thought.

Good idea. Maybe next year at this time we will post the tally.
I'm not going to redboard the past year's results.

I'm not saying that at all. I did not say:

"the free play doesn't represent the value of the service."

In fact, I said the exact opposite.

It's not redboarding since you post the selections ahead of time on you're website. No reason not to do it.

I apologize. I totally read that wrong. Everyone please disregard entirely my last post.

Why do you make an inference like this?

Our plays over the last year, or over the last 5 years for that matter, have returned a positive r.o.i.

Hey, the plays are free.
So is the Watchtower.....when you get a copy, do you feel compelled to convert?

Duh.

I have to agree with Tom. If you don't like the product or how the advertiser chooses to operate then don't purchase it. Simple. If anyone is such a weak handicapper that they need to rely on free picks...well...perhaps they should take up another hobby.

Most people fail not because of the tools but because they don't know how to use them properly. And sometimes the tool that works well for one person is not a good one for somebody else. The truth is that most handicappers want to blame someone else for their complete suckage at playing the ponies.

I invite Cbedo, dansan, and Speed to be free guests to our Members Area.

Just contact me by PM, and I will give you details on how you can access our Members Area. FREE. No strings attached.

At least this way, if any of them have anything to say about our products, they will know of what they speak.

Thanks,

Kevin
