Jerry,

This board has just gotten silly. Obviously, some of these posters are agents of Rags or else they wouldn't spend so many hours posting this one-sided crap. Jerry Jr's post about no one doing ground live at Calder comes from insiders in the figures game. I really wouldn't care if you wathced it on tape or not. I assume it is easier to focus on all the horses using tape then watching them only during the race. What a poster without ties to Rags would gain by slamming this board with negative posts is beyond me so I must assume you are right about their agenda and their unrelenting zeal must logically carry over to the track where they must spend hours bad mouthing the TG product. It must make it hard to handicap when they spend so much time blasting a competitors numbers.

I will probably always be a TG user because Rags does not offer downloads of his product, does not give multiple track discounts, offer the multitude of statistics that TG does and I find his sheets to be nearly illegible. However, I would never bother blasting his product to anyone and couldn't care less if someone likes Rags more. However, this board should be renamed, "ask the Rags' Sycophants". This board will never be able to sustain handicapping threads as long as you allow a few zealots to monopolize the board and run off legitimate posters with insults and illogical arguments. Use your new software for its intended purpose and ban Soupie Sales and Jerry Jr and let the grown-ups talk for a while. I do have to admit that at least Soup seems to want to discuss handicapping occassionally as opposed to Jerry Jr's unrelenting terrorist attacks.
