I wasn't through with you yet & I got concerned that you were either starting to fade away or had returned to your comedy gig on the Rags Bd. It is good to hear that you're starting to feel uncomfortable Raggie Dave. Rest assured that it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better.
Me cyberstalking you? No Raggie Dave. Cyberstalking is when someone with an agenda does 134 posts in 2 weeks & calls people morons, idiots, thiefs,etc,etc,etc. Since you still can't figure it out for yourself, what I'm doing now is a variation of what Seattle Slew did when he exposed you as a fraud & what JB did when he used you as a poster boy for the kind of ugliness & deceit he faces in the field.
Thus, you've seen fit to call 15 or so people morons, imbeciles,etc, so I thought you should be given an opportunity to demonstrate the level of your intellect, secure in the knowledge that you would once again not even understand what was going on. Your post doesn't disappoint.
Along the same lines, someone who criticizes everyone's handicapping surely deserves an opportunity to show, in his own words, that he considers the method used by all pros & serious players to be, as you put it, "arcane".
But what about the contest, a defining moment in the life of Raggie Dave? Unlike most, I don't think you're talking about it nearly enough & think it a tragedy that news of your magnificent "in the spirit of the contest" triumph has not reached a wider audience. I got in touch with some of my contacts at DRF & Brisnet to see if they had any interest in a feature about you & how you picked a horse without a sheet for a pretend win in a no $$ contest, although I admit that what I had in mind was a little different than the laudatory piece on the man you call a mope. They didn't, but that doesn't mean that you can't add a pretend room to your apt to hold all your pretend money.
You think my description of you is fantisizing Raggie Dave? An example of a fanatsy would be Alydar's comment about Ms Berry. Another would be you thinking that you know how to handicap. Funny a brilliant thinker like yourself isn't familar with caricature, a literary device which consists of exaggerating selected characteristics for satirical effect & which only works if there is some truth to what is being exaggerated. A few regulars have done lol funny ones about me Raggie Dave, which you might want to look up in the archives, since your attempt to imitate what I was doing doesn't work on any level.
Your suggestion re the Rags Bd was that people here should go there if they wanted a real handicapping discussion, so I naturally assumed that the Rags Bd was where you posted your handicapping insights. What I learned instead is that you have taken on the role of house clown. In your case, the only difference between there & here is that on the Rags Bd being a joke was your intent.
