No one specific Jonnie, just general comments



I can only speak from observations and imho A Serling and rest of guys at NYRA seem ok to me.


Anyway, AS don't need my help from what i've seen , so i is done.

I haven't been up to speed on just who it is you is but how you're able to make that statement after reading some of what I just did, having the misfortune to spend 17 minutes at your site, is beyond me.

You're a walking, talking infomercial for a garden variety tout service, envious of any attention given to others. Particularly those that don't have to run around hawkin' a service that is clearly sub-par.

Nice, you being able to be forthright with your potential customers with this slice of idiocy:

Because you're trying to get someone in the industry to notice you and your product, are you not?

So would that amount to a couple, or as many as a few?

I guess you have special clearence to call me an idiot, it doesn't appear to be based on your own genius. First, the number one complaint on this board with regard to me in connection with my ratings is that I will not make a selection, for you. You somehow think that I am operating a selection service.

As far as claims go, I claim that people can learn more about horse racing in a few months with my ratings, than they could by reading a roomful of books on handicapping. You somehow think that I am operating a selection service.

So, go ahead, call me an idiot because I'm doing something different than you are. I'll call you genius, because you obviously know everything there is to know.

In 2008, yes. And, due to my own failure to understand the big picture, I made a few final pitches at this time last year. Through these efforts, my ignorance was cured as I could then see that it would be highly unlikely that the industry would ever welcome my product. This is only true because the industry has noticed my product.

I think Patrick's nickname should be "The Industry."

You know, I looked at Jonnie's method very closely a while back, and he explained some stuff to me off-forum.

I was impressed. The methodology made sense, and the way in interpreted the two sets of numbers together was really smart, I thought.
It made sense to me.

I just think the better way to promote it would be to promote it and stop putting down others. Stand on your merits.

Within the industry you have your public handicappers; AS, Mountainman & the like. Software vendors Jeff Platt, Ken Massa, D. Schwartz, et al. Figures folk like cj, Sheets, Thoro-Graph and I guess you.

Nowhere do I see anyone using lines like:

Making such statements is not only dishonest it's hucksterism plain & simple.

I haven't a clue why anyone would want to get into a business selling info to this demographic. They're cheap and skeptical. But there is one thing I find insufferable and that's when I see people making bold claims that are patently false. Giving a player a fanciful impression of the nature of this game to sell a product is corrupt & sordid. And then to have the gall to come in here and try and ridicule AS when you adopt a business practice like that, is, for lack of a better term, idiotic.

The "group" show parlay went down....gee that's a scoop. Don't they always? Why is it always the "fun" from the play that takes over and rationalizes the money loss?
