We are going to shock the world and send Tom Brady back into retirement.
......just looked it up: Jim Feist is alive and well...still taking suckers money too. Looks to be early 70's
Big time racket then, him, SCORE, Goldsheet, Doc's, Tony Salinas, Mike Warren and many many more. Very interesting, Gorico.Little D--- from 1988-1990 i worked at Jim Feist sports....a legal "racket"....this was before 900 numbers and internet....we called ourselves sports agents but we were nothing but high pressure salesman...Feist was
worth back in 1990 over 500 million....dont even know if he is still alive...but he purchased names and phone numbers over 1 million active sports gamblers....and you start cold on one of the sheets until you build
a cliental ....but these people are addicted and just want to win enough to play the next game.....and no one in Vegas has any inside info....you only advertised you did...plus Jim Feist had a saturday morning TV
show talking how he knew who would most likely win the spread and put up an 800 number...so on saturdays each salesman get an extra 15-20 eager who wanted our service.....you pay money we tell you the game
to put your money down.....there were several of these businesses in Vegas because it was legal in Nevada back then...but i saw obituary notices of family members sending us their family member who killed
himself because we had a real bad week picking games...like 0-5.....Feist paid all the mathmaticians on probabilities when they make the line in Vegas.....and the boss in the room just wrote down the games
of the week.....once in a great while.....we would have a "Platinum"....hence Plats.....but overall no one knows anymore than anyone else...its a crap shoot...yes you can make educated guess that do include
real factors.....and the high pressure put on us was unreal.....they would ridicule you and shame you in some of the worst ways to see if they could get you to quit.....if you quit you were a loser.....and i was
young and had nothing else going on so i did not want to be a loser.....it was real hard to make it to the sales floor....but i had far worse things done to me in military "hazing" so i made it as one of 10
and every few minutes boss is smashing stuff because he is not seeing enough sales.....i chose to be an alcoholic and drug addict to cope.........its what i chose....i quit everything in
1992...but after two years of working in that insanity i had to quit......but Vegas does not have inside info on any games.....but you had to let the betters think you did without lying....lying was a crime in phone
sales....i never gambled cause i saw the destruction...that was one addiction i was fortunate not to get caught up in......but i put a double Plat Cowboys over Bucs....tired of Negativity..Go-Cowboys
nalam---never been Giants fan until they played Pats and Manning twice put a dagger late in 4th quarter to help get win....loved the Giants those nights[/QUOTE]
That is a bit too much , Loving the Gints , no , but was thankful for putting Brady, and Pats in place.

Not this again...Dear fellow zone Freaks---- i realize many of you ( including myself ) have been down on cowboys
front office during offseason...We let two potential stars go for pennies...Cooper and Collins....and
those two are where we are now deficient...and with LT Smith going down probably forever we have
been in scramble mode at LT and also LG...even if we sign 40 year old Jason Peters he wont be ready
for game one and he is 40 years old.....But remember Bucs down several O lineman and they dont have
Gronk anymore or Brown and Godwin not expected to play....they have aging Julio Jones and Mike Evans
Rcvrs and Leonard Fournette and Rachaad White RB's....Tom Brady 45 still throws ropes and last year
Bucs fewest on QB getting sacked around 26.....Here is why Cowboys will win....not because they are
playing in Dallas ( but helps )....but i know Dallas will help Tyler Smith at LT with Zeke or TE....and either
after a chip can slip out for safety valve.....and we know CeeDee with be double teamed and he must
win regardless ( i believe he will ) and Tolbert will get some wide open looks and i have always been
a total Noah Brown fan....he is much better than people think and a tough blocker too....plus now we
have Turpin who is very elusive....i know our OC will have many quick dump offs and quick screens
because Dak must be prepared not to have much time before He throws or runs....Cowboys like last
year did not try to continue to run ball when it was apparent they could not....but they will use both
Zeke and Pollard in passing game....we have a lot of weapons not counting our TE's who can block
and catch....I believe we wil be better on offense then people think and Now the Defense.....i believe
our Defense will keep us in the game they cannot be rolled over....our interior lineman are beasts
and Osa is total beast at 3-tech...Our DE's or rushman will be far better than last year..we have
a slew of really good rushman and 3-tech and interior wont be shabby.....It will be up to Quinn
to navigate through the game with all the weapons we have and our OC to have a game plan
that is not predictable and i believe He will........Cowboys will win by more than 7 points and
so we must Lay Double Plat and take no names and put the hurt on Bucs...We are better
than we realize and Dak not messin' around....and neither should we....if you are a Hater
you will have to find another team to hate because GO-COWBOYS

Oh you are fine! I was just commenting on the benefits of a writing class.Steve---but as much as i tried i could not remove put hurt on bucs and Plat guarantee...i agree TMI on some other stuff...apologies to you find folks
this is what I've been waiting on. I'm betting the house we lose now. Gorico's platinum is sure losses. Lol
Bucs are being grossly overrated by a ton of people. Good chance we beat them.
GORICO starting strong with the double plat.......... I like it!
It doesn't even matter, it's a sign that it's finally Football Season! It's kinda like seeing the first Robin of spring, or the changing of leaves in the fall, @GORICO throwing out Plats is the first sign of a new NFL Season!has he ever been right? Its like a double platinum curse.
Dallas is absolutely loaded w/ question marks.“Herd’s Hierarchy” had the Bucs 6th or 7th. Dallas wasn’t mentioned.
Dallas is absolutely loaded w/ question marks.
Of course. But if you count question marks, we have more.Most teams are. It’s a year to year league with no guarantees.
