LVAsports pleased to announce Alf Musketa will join LVA as our senior handicapper

Well said. Couldn't agree more. It is a waste of time. Move on.
Kudos Great hire, Fez & Anthony. Alf is a stand-up guy and a winning capper, both short and long term. You weren't kidding, Anthony -- this is truly a 'coup' for the LVA forums. Well done!
[QUOTE=anthony;15381]I don't care who posts what they "think" the record is.[/QUOTE] If records are unimportant then Fezzik should not advertising stuff like "I think Ken is something like 80% ATS on his picks over at our place." Even mentioning his "study" of Alf without supplying the VI record is questionable. On the other hand promoting Alf knowledge in particular sports is useful.
[QUOTE=anthony;15381]Likewise, I don't care who posts what they "think" the record is. But it will still be one man's reckoning and the inevitable that wasn't really available, you missed this play, that was only a lean, etc. will no doubt ensue. Point is, it will take something very special for me to take it as gospel. Further to that, I'm amazed that someone like Dreamer can throw something together and everyone says -- yes, that's correct. Baloney. It would take a couple of accountants to come in and get that right and complete. Am I afraid of the results? Not remotely. But I'm afraid of what goes along with the process, which is the reason for my stance.[/QUOTE] It's obviously time to raise the monthly rate to $50.00. That should buy us about another 6 monthes of peace of mind.

IE "Bet yada yada at Greek". Look for "X" number at this book.. Don't worry..any documentation using the numbers most of us post, will be very kind.
Understand. But unless you've run one of these, you simply can't imagine the potential fallout. Lord, it sometimes borders on insanity.
Anthony, great board and valuable. I need to change my membership to annual. What do I do? Thanks
