JB,

That was a lousy post by you on a number of fronts.

1. You are running a company. I know gambling customers are not treated like real customers by a lot of people in this industry, but still being insulting instead of gracious is just poor business. Yes, I realize that there are people waiting in line after every race cashing tickets, sometimes even your analysis customers....

2. You were wrong on the Travers period, and about Lionheart specifically. I read your analysis, you said box Lionheart, Sir Shackelton and Birdstone. One ran last, one ran 3rd to last. The other won, but he wasn't your "key" horse. You are now saying after the fact that both favorites were vulnerable. Then why use Lionheart? I know you threw out Purge, but why use a "vulnerable" favorite? Isn't that what we as bettors hope to find and try to beat. You identified him as a vulnerable favorite, then used him? That is actually worse. Better off sticking to the fact that he was fast on your numbers.

3. I don't care about Ragozin, but it is really ridiculous for you to criticize them for using Eddington. He ran a mediocre 3rd, but that is still better than 2 of your 3 picks. If you "crush" the race, like the Haskell, then gloat a little, but when you blow the race, don't criticize him blowing the race. It makes your other points against Ragozin carry less weight with anybody that isn't a T-Graph cultist, but rather an independent horse player.

4. You are posting about your good day and getting the race of the week right. Hurrah. You got the 9-5 favorite correct and the $16 exacta. THis comes on the heels of a ROTW in which you liked even money Pleasantly Perfect. I could give you credit for hitting a 9 to 5 shot. It is good to be right, even without getting a price. But not when you belittle the analysis I put on the board for the Travers, where I laid out why LH and Purge were throwouts and I put Birdstone on top and gave out the exacta and your pompous response is "the ticket lines are filled with winners after every race".

5. Gotta love people who craft an analysis/hypothesis and then when it is wrong, they justify the result within their own original analysis somehow. That sucks JB and at least some of the people on this board see that. Sure there are a bunch of people who post how they have made so much money using T-Graph and how the sun rises because of T-Graph every day. But increasing your market share and making your business successful isn't going to happen just because of that select few. There are a lot more of us that are open to theories and discussions, have no allegiance to any company or product, but are willing to listen to reasonable discussion and possibly be "sold" or swayed. When you go over the edge on credibility, you lose us. Maybe you don't care. That is your choice.

Like I said. A lousy post.
