Jerry,
1. I might be the only one who comments on this board about your ROTW, but I think it is a pretty good guess that if 5600 people download it each week, quite a few of them might be using it to structure wagers and if they are, they are losing for 3 months.
2. Me not paying for your ROTW is a stupid point. Check my account before you make comments about not paying for your product. $700 in a month is enough to pay T-Graph. Throwing in a couple of losing opinions in the ROTW is a "bonus".
3. You don't like me commenting about your ROTW on this board. Well, you are a public figure in the horseracing industry. You sell a "premium" product. You pick one race a week to give a 'seminar' on. Thus, you are "on record" each week. When you are way off or wrong, for an extended period of time, then you should expect to hear about it, from whichever of your customers feels like talking about it. Ignore the posts if you think they are out of line, but it is a bit unrealistic for you to think some people will hold you accountable for your opinions.
4. I took you to task for a "below average" Saratoga meet this year for your analysis product. One of your responses was that your ROTW is a better barometer of your handicapping ability and the power of your product. Hence, I don't comment any more about the analysis product (mostly because I don't buy it), and I have looked at the ROTW each week to see if this is in fact a better barometer.
5. You can talk all you like about the "seminar" value of the ROTW, as opposed to it being a "winner" or "loser" in the end. But if the seminar continuously gives out views/opinions that aren't validated in the race afterwards, then the seminar isn't successful, by any means. If I give a seminar building my case to buy IBM stock and the stock tanks 20% in the next few weeks, I wonder if I can tell my customers that the seminar was just a "teaching tool". Teaching what?
