Is this really true??

[Spix]

--from m a j o r w a g e r.com--


I hate to say it , but Lou D has and is exposing some major BS between Don Best Sports and Wayne Root.
I DO NOT agree one bit with Lou's distasteful comments or personal vendetta's!

Instead of lining my post with accusations and tangents, I will bring only the truth.

The truth is from the actual business model that Wayne Root and his company esportsentertainment.com are circulating at this very moment.

I REPEAT THIS IS ALL FACTS

****The ONLY reason I am doing this is because it sickens me to see Don Best Sports become the #1 high traffic media distributor of this long running scam!********

THEY ARE DEPENDING ON DON BEST AS THEIR #1!!
They will have ad's in USA today, Jim Rome, Ron Barr, and other radio spots too. BUT NO OTHER MARKET IS MORE SUSCEPTIBLE THAN THE ONE SERVED BY DON BEST.

As everyone knows or will soon find out, "THE BULK OF ALL HANDICAPPING ADVERTISING IN THE DON BEST SPORTS FOOTBALL SCHEDULE, DISTRIBUTED TO OVER 500,000 SPORTS BETTORS WEEKLY, HAS BEEN PURCHASED BY WAYNE ROOT AND CO.

This is an undisputable fact! If you doubt it just wait a couple of weeks.

Fact number 2= In the advertisement Wayne Root claims," to have hit 74%(?!?!?) winners over the past 10 years.

Fact number 3= How about we quote Wayne's ACTUAL background and expertise that is distributed to investors in his new company.

"" Wayne Allyn Root, Chairman & CEO, Management believes that Mr. Root is one of the largest generators of television revenues in the sports service industry. He has been featured on Proline for 10 seasons, producing substantial revenues annually. HE BELIEVES HIS FOLLOWING IS YOUNG(19 TO 47), LOYAL, UPSCALE, EDUCATED, AND WILLING TO SPEND SUBSTANTIAL SUMS OF MONEY.
It closes with this dandy.... A BUSINESSMAN FIRST AND FOREMOST, HIS BROADLY BASED FAME AND YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE SPORTS HANDICAPPING AND GAMING BUSINESS MAKE HIM A UNIQUE AND EXTROADINARILY VALUABLE RESOURCE AS A TALENT IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA.

Excuse me, but why is his record in the success of the product he sells not in his bio? WHY?????? WHY??????? WHY???????
I mean 74% is impressive enough for me to update my personal resume on the spot.

IT IS NOT THERE BECAUSE IT IS A FRAUD!!!

A FRAUD THAT DON BEST HAS NO PROBLEM IN PROMOTING FOR A LARGE FEE!

Want some more juicy s hit?

How about a prime revenue source from the company?
PAY-PER-CALL REVENUES ( 800 AND 900 NUMBERS) ARE GENERATED BY THE COMPANY'S TELEVISION,RADIO,PRINT,PUBLIC RELATIONS, AND OTHER ADVERTISING, INCLUDING THE USE OF ***PURCHASED MAILING LISTS FOR OUTBOUND TELEMARKETING CALLS*****

Don Best must have some juicy mailing lists!!!!


Another fact-
I have seen the TV pilot. They have a roundtable of "prognasticator's" where they pick both sides of games! This is a new low for Don Best to be involved with.

Make the touts print their own schedule's!!!!

I can go on and on. Yet I am not here to scold somebody's business.Wayne Root does and will do as he pleases.

We are in America.

I DO feel that Don Best carries integrity and should not promote LIES FROM ANYONE.

I also want to add that this is NOT a personal attack on Dana. I am though questioning Don Best Sport's business practices.

What will bringing this out do?

Thats up to you guys!!!!!!!

Even if this is true, who cares? Why should I care about what Joe Shmoe bets on which game? I want to buy it back after he forces it up to a wrong number. I, Segundo, need every square and sucker in the world to send every possible sportsbook as much money as possible so that these same books stay in business after the beating I am going to give them. If there were no suckers, there would be no books and then there would be no Segundo posting here.

As reno's favorite essayist Bob McCune said: "As sports betting proliferates, and pertinent information is more widely disseminated, Public Opinion becomes more general, leaving fewer and fewer wise guys. In other words, winning becomes more and more difficult. This is to the advantage of the bookmakers, not the players".

(The previous paragraph's reference to bookmakers was not meant to include Bowman's International)

I second everything that Segundo says. In fact, I am personally rooting for Wayne Root to hit 74% losers, and to have tens-of-thousands of loyal customers. If Wayne can actually hit a documented 26% winners, I'll fly out and personally congratulate him for making the sportsbetting world a better place for bookmakers and wiseguys.

Yawn.........

I guess that makes the Scamdicappers heroes in your eyes'. The 2 wiseguys playing the trickle down theory with scamdicappers. "Gee, let the scamsters make their fortune, misleading suckers who will hopefully lose millions on their bad picks so I can get a little steam going and pick up the middle or value on the other end every now and then". You 2 are all heart. Why bother betting at all, why not join the Johnny D team. Your attitude is no better than his. Hey, you can go even a step farther, bet one side, then release the game, and buy back the other side. This should work great for you Reno.

I understand the nature of the game. The masses lose, while the few wiseguys win. I have no problem with that. That is the game we all play. The way I see it, most guys bet games for the entertainment value, and the juice they lose over the year is the entertainment expense. But I do not want to see anyone getting ripped off by a sports service that lies about it's record. I do not want people overbetting games because they are misled into believing that the tout actually hits 74% winners. I do not want to see highly respected services like Don's Best, legitimizing services that blatantly lie about their record.

Let the sucker's bet Wayne Root's games knowing he hit 54% or 46% whatever the case may be. But everything I lectured Johnny D about applies here.

By the way, Segundo(T),

News Bulletin ) If you are sharp enough, does not matter how many suckers are playing.
I don't need Wayne Root misleading suckers to hit 60%+ winners. Most games I play are at overnight numbers. What does that have to do with Wayne Root or Johnny D or any of the others. NADA, despite what Bob Mckune's essay says. There is plenty of money being lost by the masses and there is plenty of money to be made by a sharp bettor, even if there are NO scamdicappers.

Spix, the thing is that touts have been made up the vast majority of advertising in rotation schedules for many years. And MOST of them lie or make deceiving statements about their records (not just Wayne Root).

I just don't feel that Don Best is advocating these bozos just because he takes their advertising dollars.
