    At the end of the day, shrink rode in on his white horse, forcing the hand that feeds him. It will blow over.

    The funny thing is Oddsmaker will probably renew their advertising contract, after getting crucified on the forum. Guess they're counting on most visitors to the EOG site not bothering to delve into the forum part of the site.

      Yes, and I believe the employment door is open to him here if things go sour over there.

      Something for you to ponder.......

        That would accomplish what many have tried to achieve here.

        I would never post here again. LOL. Seriously.

          Bread, it could happen.

          If you don't believe me, ask SBR John.

            SBRJohn did state that Mo was not an "asshat".

            But not much of anything that John says makes any sense anyways.

                When mofome was working here I was scarcely posting. It was the worst 6 months in SBR's history. You think now things are bad? When mofome was here it was unbearable to watch the forum go down in the gutter.

                If they bring mofome back I'm going for good this time.

                  14 hrs and 500 posts per day appeals to some forum owners, even if a good deal of those posts
                  are letting others know how worthless, clueless and useless they are.

                  Nice direction, shrink.

                      Look guys Mo is just a fellow doing a job over there. Ive said he has talent but right now his manager/coach is using him to just post like crazy. He's burned out and lacks direction to become something more than a power poster.

                      Anyway, I have nothing to do with running the forum these days. And I think Bill is very happy with Willie, Lou, Dave, Justin Pete and the rest of the staff.

                      I said early on that Ken should have told Mo to stay far away from that Oddmaker scam attempt. He was over his head and now he is damaged goods that is made worse by trying to spin out of it. Guys would respect him a lot more if he came public and said just five simple words; I'm sorry, I was wrong. I hope he does and keep in mind he didnt stiff anyone he just did his best at his job. Most of you would have done the exact same thing.

                        SBR John you obviously have zero idea what you are talking about. You are clueless and have no idea how hard Ken and I have worked to resolve this matter for the player.

                              John, I figured you had a soft spot for the lad, and despite the retirement talk, still had
                              some say in operations.

                              Just my opinion, misguided as it may be.

                                  Well not a soft spot. Forum positions take a very specific job set qualities. He has them but needs direction. Maybe the EOG is the best fit because he does seem to prefer the power posting style.

                                  I may have some influence on future projects, or like to think I do, but the running of the forum and day to day operations I really don't.

                                    You may want to consider hiring a tennis capping tutor for Crazy Lou as one of the improvements that can be done at SBR right now.

                                      Of course I did, and while I understand that Oddsmaker values the relationship with EOG, you can be sure the call to change the tone and pay came from OM to EOG, not the other way around, if you know what I mean.

                                          I had never heard of nor visited the eog website until this. I have to say that i find it incredible to rule against a player on the basis that he was abusing or trying to abuse the bonus and then to make posts as if they've managed to overturn the books ruling and, by default, their own ruling. And somehow the blame lies with SBR for posting negatively about Oddsmaker and forum users who called it theft? What does that have to do with siding with a book's rules?

                                          It certainly doesn't help players to have sites bashing one another to try to gain the upper hand - the way to gain the upper hand is to be thorough and fair in your conclusions. Maybe that site has done good work in the past, I have no idea, but my first view of them is of a really unprofessional outfit apportioning blame to deflect their own shortcomings in this instance and if I worked there doing good work, I'd ask that the focus is on the player and book and not on other internet users or websites - stick to the actual issue and don't dig holes when you get it wrong.

And somehow the blame lies with SBR for posting negatively about Oddsmaker and forum users who called it theft? What does that have to do with siding with a book's rules?

                                              It certainly doesn't help players to have sites bashing one another to try to gain the upper hand - the way to gain the upper hand is to be thorough and fair in your conclusions. Maybe that site has done good work in the past, I have no idea, but my first view of them is of a really unprofessional outfit apportioning blame to deflect their own shortcomings in this instance and if I worked there doing good work, I'd ask that the focus is on the player and book and not on other internet users or websites - stick to the actual issue and don't dig holes when you get it wrong.
                                              This is what I've been saying for a year now. Great post.
