***Ferringo Declares IC Victory***
Robert Ferringo, expert sports handicapper, defender of the faith and gifted with precognition, declared (Sunday 3/4) IC's victory over Faders. We will overlook the fact that Mr. Ferringo boldly made his prediction 18 days into our 30 day fade program when IC was up about 8 paid units on the Faders.Mr. Ferringo's excerpt from March 4 Fading IC thread:
"...I'm not calling the game at half-time. This game was played three days ago. And you're watching it now on DVR and pretending its live. See, I know the final score. Because I've worked with him for years. I've seen who he is, what he can do, and what he is about. I generally don't praise a lot of other handicappers. But he is legit and I have no problem backing up my homeboy."Another Robert Ferringo excerpt:
"So do me a favor, when his next big run wipes you out and you finally give up this fool's errand please start a "Fade Ferringo" thread next."Faders response:
We hate to fade a handicapper who knows the final scores. However, business is business and for an upfront payment (to be negotiated) we will start a 30 day "Fade Ferringo" tread. Discounts are available for longer term fade threads. Immediately call us or visit our web-site to order your uniquely personalized fade thread. Current Special: Get 1,000 FREE bumper stickers with each 30 day order.Sample bumper sticker and fade thread title:
