Several Veteran Cappers were correct w/ SF 49ers...how/why???

[QUOTE=Lake Tahoe kid;12415][I]Everyone[/I] should appreciate old school's contributions to this site. Just because a few of us rib him every now and then doesn't mean we disrespect him in a any way, shape or form. Good luck with your picks this holiday season, and may you start out the New Year with your winning streak intact. LTK[/QUOTE] Why do you rib him?

[QUOTE=250 Gee;12417]Why do you rib him?[/QUOTE] Old school and I go back a few years, and we both have egos that sometimes need to be held in check. :) Most of the time it's his; but he's the one laying it on the line, week in and week out, not me. That's why he is much more subjected to criticism than I. Every time I try to be consistent on here the "Jim Morrison" in me always seems to prevail. Great imagination and potential intellectual success, yes. Once it starts to happen... Forget about it. Old school is the epitome of success, longevity and reliability as far as fundamental handicapping and market shopping is concerned. My compliments to him have been few and far between; but my utmost respect and admiration have always been prevalent. LTK

Nicely said.

[QUOTE=250 Gee;12422]Nicely said.[/QUOTE] Thanks. Without you...I never would've expressed myself. I'm still striving to be the next Steve Wynn of Las Vegas. LOL "Life is too short for irrational arguments. Constructive disagreements need apply." -- :)

Addendum. Mariah Carey said it best: "Sent from above." The bottom line is when you've got Steve Wynn-like dreams... the number one chick you've got by your side is Mariah. I've been breaking this whole thing down all night. The one conclusion I keep coming to is: PASSION. Play your favorite CDs; watch Mr. Wynn, the last figurehead in the modern-day casino era become extinct. I absolutely guarantee that the last "Robert De Niro" (Sam Rothstein/Steve Wynn) of our time will become another statue of immortality. I will bank this prediction as much as the Sand's stock will rise to $16 per share--after an all-time low of sub .99 cents. I remember several prognosticators on the Las Vegas board predicting the surge. Great call, guys. Congrats WTS, go visit Wynn.com to see the last legendary face of Nevada. You will never see another Steve again... Except Mr. Fezzik of course! :) Appreciate Steve Wynn while you have a chance, guys. The Chinese are moving in quickly, and the only thing they know is... "American lampshades". F'n politicians...
