In Response To: More Observations (RD)

Very nice post, but

"StevieY has shown proficiency handicapping over the past year, but he loses some respect when someone gets under his skin and he resorts to making unsubstantiated claims. He needs to let his selections and analysis do the talking. No one really cares whether or not he made six figures last year betting sports, but when he uses this to justify a position on another subject (bet sizing), he loses some stature"

I didn't mention that just to say it, and it was on the subject being talked about at the time. This is the quote from Fez I replied to.

"Show me a guy who flat bets and I'll show you a guy that is NOT getting it done making 6 figures/year"

I have been the one from the beginning who has stated that past years results don't mean anything if you don't stay ahead of the game. I could hit 70% a year for the last 6 years, but if I don't do it when it matters, then those years really don't matter to anyone but me. No where on my pages, or on the free pages will you see "well this worked for me the last 6 years, I don't know why it isn't working now", "I made such and such on a pick I didn't post", or "I made such and such the last 3 weeks, come on over". It just doesn't matter. You are only as good as your upcoming picks, and no one cares what you did, only what you do. I am not a tout and I will not act like a tout. Name one that would stay up half the night getting information for a question someone asked? I do and will continue to do so for no other reason than to be helpful.

Yeah, I have a little(big?, been told I should get off the Xenadrine :) ) temper, only because I am a perfectionist(gee, thanks dad :) ). I don't stand for mediocrity or doing things wrong. If you are going to do something, you might as well do it right. You know you won't get any BS from me, whether you agree with me or not. I don't feel good about any of my picks I give to people losing, even though slumps happen to everyone. Sometimes you have to weigh the good with the bad, and hopefully I come out ahead.
