EXPOSING THE SCAMMERS AND IMMORAL SPORTS
HANDICAPPERS: OCT. 2ND, 2002:
 It's been awhile since I wrote an article
EXPOSING the Scammers and Conmen in the 
Sports handicapping business. But I get tons
of emails from you readers wanting more about 
WHO these guys are and how they scam. Well,
I first want to say that anyone I expose by name,
if you have a problem ....with me doing it...just
give me a call...I will meet you out anywhere...
anytime....I will say last thing you need to do 
is piss me off anymore than I am about 80% of you.
Some of you I include...not because I dont like you
personally...just I DO NOT LIKE your affilitation
you sell picks for. So you actually are forcing me to
expose you....as I cant let the good people out there
get punked over by you chumps who have to scam good
folks to make a few bucks. You should all be ashamed 
of yourselves anyway. If you are sooo good at Picking
Winners...you dont need to scam and hype people...just 
WIN BABY. 
 OK...first an update on one of the MOST IMMORAL
SPORTS OUTFITS in America-- Vegas Insider...and a update of
their so called awesome Cappers...this after one
month of action in College Football. Now they have
over 25 Cappers on board...but since 10 or so I never
heard of...a few who actually have a regular office job 
with them...and they allow them to sell picks too...
(what a joke that is!). After one month these so called
TOP CAPPERS are (-63) games overall...ALREADY...GEEEZZZZ.
Hey Peter Gold...this is the "information you advertise
the Sports Books dont want you (public) to know"??
(Trust me Peter you stupid fucking pussy...they love your
Cappers as they make a killing off all their losing picks..
they just wish your Cappers actually BET THE GAMES too...
then they would really clean up all year.)
          ******************
1. Ken White (-15)--this is STARDUST CASINO'S GOLDENBOY.
2. Tim Trushel (-13)---Tims at his normal losing pace overall.
3. Bob Donahue (-12.4)--This guy pulled the biggest scam in
         Sports capping history in Auto Racing...an act I feel
         he should go to prison for.
4. Trace Fields (-7.5)---lives in Oklahoma and is a Professional
         Sports Bettor...are you serious?
5. Dave Zenor-- (-5)---Gold Sheet guy...gives them 3 chances to win each week
         although between the three they NEVER had a winning season
         overall.
6. Gary Olshan (-6) --another Gold Sheet so called Expert. Hahahahaha
7. Brent Crow (-6.6)----heres another kid claiming to be Professional
          Sports bettor...for a living...lives in Alabama...lifetime
           losing record ...Tim Trushels best buddy...that tells you
           right there the kid is a loser...they have many of same plays
           over course of season...
8. DOC'S Sports (-4)---this actually a strong start for Doc. He hasnt
           won in nearly a decade...I bet against every play he makes..
            almost cant lose proposition...only Mike Lee and Russ Culver
           have lost more games the past decade.
9. Phil Steele (-2.6) --another of most overated of all time...this guy
           does put out nice Publications with actual sports stats...
              But he doesnt bet a nickel...nothing...ever...I mean 
              you should go to prison for advertising your the BEST and
              yet you dont even believe yourself your picks will win.
              A master of Marketing and Hype--second only to Root and
              Feist.
***********************
  Info on Russ Culver....
 Actually we have none...he's in hiding ...scared to come out...scared
to show us more losing picks...said he quit Vegas Insider because Root 
joined...I say that was your way out of people KNOWING YOUR SORRY LOSING
PICKS.
  Info on Tim Trushel and his barn of $20 bettors...
Tim...why is it when you post a guy has a HYPED Game of Year play and he wins
you post it right away it won...yet when the picks lose...you say nothing
at all...do you realize how PISSED off people get seeing that?? Is that
Honest like you claim to be?? I dont think so...I say thats smacking the 
poor sucker who bought the HYPED game right in his damn face. As I have noticed
you havent said your record or anyones really on the site other than Teddys
Hilton record...why is this?? You claim to have ten of the nations Best 
Cappers...if this is so....at least 8 of you should be kicking ass...
oh well....you and me both know thats not true...as if it was guys like
Mike Campanella wouldnt have a day job selling pools. Also..on your site
you have an Offshore Contest giving away money. On your disclaimer you state
no employee of your site can win...yet Capper Mike Campanella won in Week 2...
something looks verrrrry fishy there to me...I mean you continually claim
how honest you are...man O man....dude....that is as dishonest as it gets.
I have recieved a ton of emails from that IMMORAL ACT....trust me too..a few guys
are PISSSSSSSED OFF...and so I gave them your home address...they wanted
to meet you in person...I guess they will surely catch up to you soon...and
you can explain to them in person how such a thing can happen. Oh and...you 
still write how betting BAD TEAMS is solid value....is that why your off
to another horrible start..??  My man...you are a joke...betting bad teams
will lead you to the poorhouse....sure some may have a good ATS RECORD...
only because there are alot of bad teams...one has to cover against another.
But there is NO VALUE ever betting bad teams...to win consistently you must
select GOOD OR GREAT teams...in the right situations. After one month in NFL,
the five worst teams are now (8-15) ATS...many of the games being absolute
BLOWOUTS....why ?? Because these teams suck...there is No Value ever betting
teams who have shit QB's and Shit HC's....who cant pass, catch or play defense.
     Again...this is why your lifetime record is a LOSING ONE.
OH and I see your not monitered at Bigguy anymore?? How come?? Scared? I say
you got tired of everyone seeing your losing record...yeah..you get monitored
at Sports Monitor still...only because they dont show anyones record if your
losing ....pretty good situation there..if you win..send the people to that
site to see it...if not...just be quiet...lay low and nobody knows what your 
record is....because the Sports Monitor ....like you...is a IMMORAL BUSINESS to make money
off sorry Cappers who all mostly need HYPE and Scams to sell people their picks.
Keep up the great Scamming Timmy ole Boy...I am documenting everything you
and your site does..and your making my BOOK become a best seller. 
    


EXPOSING SCAMMERS AND IMMORAL SPORTS SERVICES: 
DEC 21ST---THIS IS TOO FUNNY!!

VEGAS INSIDER IS AT IT AGAIN:

Well folks ..I havent written much here in this
column lately but I have a few things I had to
write about because they are sooo funny and have 
to be the biggest CON of the Holiday season.
Over at VegasInsider....headed by Russ "The 
Blackmailer" Culver (who once again finished
DEAD LAST in the Sunset Station Handicappers
Contest)....I see they are selling a "Super
Special Bowl Package" of Russ Culver and Ken
White and Mike Lees Bowl Picks...every Bowl
Pick from all three for $199 bucks. They are
claiming this is a Postseason Power Package 
and the "same premium information and tools
used by the SHARPS. If you have been waiting
for the ONE oppurtunity to finish the year 
strong...this is it they claim.  Now the 
question I ask is this...How....can three
guys with LOSING RECORDS in College Football
this year be called Sharps?? Between the three,
they are minus 22 games overall...of course
as always with Clueless Culver leading at (-15) 
for the entire season. Now they are selling for 
a low price of $199....that alone should be a
RED FLAG as no guy with a solid winning mark
would sell that cheap...even by himself...
here....you get all three guys Bowl picks for
$199??....you got to be joking. These people have
no regards for you at all....claiming over
and over how they are Sharps....when really 
most of you and even your mothers could win 
more than Mike Lee or Clueless Culver. Now,
Ken White had a down year....but here already
they are off to a (1-4) Bowl start (Culver is
a nice 0-3 right out the gate). This site is
really taken the lead in the Capping world
as the Biggest jokers I have ever seen.
They said Culver was Hot when he won three weeks
in a row...but your NEVER hot if your losing on 
the year. And lets get one thing straight....
when you get down 20 or more games in a season...
your bankroll is empty...(and thats only betting
5% of it per game which nobody bets that low per
play)....meaning you cant really make a comeback 
the rest of the way...unless of course you simply
tout plays and not bet them yourself.  Again..how
can you bet the plays after a minus 20 start ??
You cant...your broke....but with Vegas Insider..
I guess your never broke...regardless how much 
you lose. These people are scarier than Bin Laden
as they talk to you (in their website) as if you 
are a complete moron. I have never seen a person
get as much good publicity as Culver yet lose more
than him.  And you read these guys Bio's on the site
claiming they make lines ...and are Sharps...when 
they are so behind the past decade its not even
funny.  I can tell you part of why I win sooo much
is I simply see the plays these losers have and I 
bet the opposite...I really think these guys 
(excluding Ken White) couldnt win if they had the
halftime score. And to make it worse...on their
website they use the best line for each Cappers 
pick...almost always getting the best line that
was out that day....I have seen many time where 
one Capper has +3 1/2 on a game and another one
has -2 1/2 on the other side of the same game and
yet both plays are posted at the exact same time.
Many times they use a line I never even saw exist
giving a much better chance to win that game. They
do this daily and so they surely won 5 or more games
with a "soft line" and they are still losing....I mean
that tactic alone should put them at least up a few
games on the year. Last year that site had major
layoffs and sadly for some workers there you have to
believe with another hideous season this year more
will be coming after this Holiday season. Note to 
Ken White: when you get tired of making no money
with Vegas Insider...call me...I am sure I can make
you more money in a month than they make you all
year long.

EXPOSING THE SCAMMERS AND IMMORAL SPORTS SERVICES - INTRODUCTION

This section is going to be specifically to show you exactly how Handicappers and Sports Services/ Touts use creative marketing to con you and take your money.  We will update some of the scammers each week and try to inform you how not to get TAKEN FOR ALL YOUR $.  We are not saying these people doing this can't win, we are saying don't let them "hype" you into believing one play is that much better than another one or that a "game can't lose" just because it's their highest rating game.  These people "hype" the games they sell to hopefully make you believe these certain games are sure fire winners. Of course they don't have to pay the bookmaker when the picks lose...you do!! Each and every week this page will update Handicappers "creative marketing" and the ways these people use it to take advantage of you.  Trust me....9 out of ten Handicappers DO NOT bet one cent on the games they sell you. And 99 out of 100 DO NOT have "inside information" or scouts at the games the way they claim.  I am not saying I win every game or that I am the best Handicapper of them all.....I am simply teaching you how not to get conned or scammed buying selections on any game in any Sport.  The more you know...the better off you are in the long run. Not all Handicapping Services are dishonest.....you just need to know what "tip-offs" separate the good and the bad. Even guys who claim to be honest.....aren't completely honest as they hide the entire truth and use "selective" ways to show you the winners they had, quietly forgetting to inform you of the losers.  Hiding the truth is misleading and to me it's the same as lying.  I will update many ways these people use to con and "get over" on you.  If you pay attention to these things...you will surely be better off down the road. Good Luck to you all this season. ******************************************************************

EXPOSING SCAMMERS PART 1 - SEPTEMBER 11 2001

*EXPOSING THE SCAMMERS/CONS* Welcome to one of my most important sections of my entire website. In this section all season long I will update you on many of the scams that are taking place each day in the world of Sports Handicapping across the country. I will try and teach you exactly how these Handicappers are scamming you and getting over on you. I will usually explain the actual scams and the exact ways these guys use marketing to con you. And many times I will also expose the actual Handicapper by name. I will add if you are a Handicapper who has punked me and my family over in any way.....welcome to the Big Leagues....trust me you are way over your head and out of your league. When you need to punk me and try to take food off my families table to make yourself look better and to make more money for you and your family... you are the lowest form of scum walking this earth. And as I have said before....if you do not like me exposing you.....call me now and we can meet out somewhere.....I would love to meet you...anytime and anyplace.....so I can personally kick your ass. (And if any of you ever print or say anything BAD about me....please know you will be very sorry--I simply will not tolerate it). Also, if you in any way deceive the public through misleading advertising....then you are just low life scum and in no way are you any better of a human being than the terrorists who attacked NY and Washington DC. Scam Handicappers affect many peoples lives by misleading them to bet on what they make out to be "sure winners" and really only put people in a position to lose a lot of money betting over what they can afford to lose, in turn totally affecting their lives and their families lives. I still have people say to me--"Do people really still fall for the scams some of these guys are pulling"? The answer is YES!!! Everyday I get calls and e-mails from people who have been scammed by these punks. My goal is to inform as many people as I can as to what really goes on in this business and let you know the "real truth" about what is going on. Make sure to read this column every week to find out who is scamming you and also how these guys get over on you on a daily basis. **************************************************************** ~~~EXPOSED: LARRY GROSSMANS RADIO SHOW~~~ This is one guy who in all my years in the Radio and Sports business really makes me laugh. This little rodent goes on the air 5 days a week here in Las Vegas and acts/ talks like he is running the most honest Show about Sports betting and Gambling in general. He has on all his buddies on a regular basis and makes the public believe they are "real life" bettors when 80% of them don't (can't) bet over $50 bucks a game. The worst thing though is he continually preaches how his Radio Show does not have on any TOUTS pitching 900 lines. Well, no they don't pitch a 900 line ...I will say that. But Larry, Larry, Larry....you little rodent.....what the hell is the difference between a guy selling a pick on a 900 line or sending the listeners to a guys website where is he selling his plays via the Internet and then also thru a 900 line they post on their website??? Can you please tell me what the difference is??? You can't...there is NONE!! Its the SAME thing. They are doing the same thing in a more "creative" way. Do you understand this Larry?? And you making a guy like Andy Iskoe....who bets $20 bucks a game or Mike Lee....who bets less than that.....or worse yet...Phil Steele...who never made a bet in his life....out to be "real life" Handicappers/bettors is an Absolute JOKE!!! If these guys are so called "Legends".....why aren't they betting $2,000 or more a game. Because they are far from being a legend and simply just TOUTS selling plays to make a living. They have all lost more games than people can even imagine. But I guess since they are your buddies Larry.....they are good honest guys and not scammers. These guys should be called Sports Statisticians. Yes, they can give us good betting information, but if you aren't betting the games for large amounts of money....you are not a Handicapper. Many people out there can talk about the games and give you their reasoning behind the plays. But you have to actually win over the entire season to be a "real" Handicapper. And as for the guys you have on your Shows that sell plays with HYPE and creative Marketing.....and you have a few of them too....they are not Handicappers.....they are simply Con artists. And you are just helping to make people think they really bet these games themselves when that is soooo far from the "real truth" and worse thing of all is you know exactly what they bet and how some of your guests are truly struggling to simply pay the rent each month. I have said this before....if you sell plays with HYPE (aka..."College Game of the Year" or a game with a Special Name or Group in an effort to make the actual selection(s) look better) ----you are a CON ARTIST and SCAMMER. Simply put.....unless you sell your picks with no HYPE....no Special names given to specific games....you are a CON. I will say I started in the business doing that....HYPING certain games.....feeling I had to do that to compete with these BIG Name Handicappers. But as soon as I realized how wrong it was...I stopped it totally. I know I can win without hyping someone. It is very tough to compete selling my plays without any hype.....but I have won and have faith my picks will do the talking for me. I truly feel those Handicappers who sell without HYPE are 80% of the time very legitimate. That means they can let their actual picks do the talking. Very few people can sell plays this way. Mostly because they cant win. Its very simple....most guys know they cant win consistently and just use "creative marketing" to make a live living. **MORAL ABOUT LARRY GROSSMAN: Just another guy claiming to be HONEST, and really just punking over all of Las Vegas 5 days a week. Be extremely careful of this guy and all his guests. He can make you believe they are "real life" bettors even though he knows they aren't betting a nickel on the plays they sell you for a living. This guy is simply a little cockroach who is saying one thing and doing the opposite. It's people like this that give the entire business a bad name as he keeps pitching us Honesty and in return he is really punking us all with his non betting Handicappers (some of who would not survive without his keeping them on his daily shows) and shameless pitch that his guests never pitch a 900 line on his show. That is "creative marketing" to its finest and this guy is as slick as they come. Shame on you Grossman......you have now been EXPOSED!! You may fool many people...but you will never fool me. ****************************************************** ~~~NEXT ARTICLE----I EXPOSE NATIONAL TV SPORTS SHOWS......ARE THEY REALLY SPORTS SHOWS?? .....OR SIMPLY 30 MINUTE INFO-MERCIALS???~~~ ********************************************************* SPECIAL NOTE: PLEASE EMAIL ME ANYTIME OR CALL MY OFFICE IF YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMED........I HAVE A HUGE GROUP NOW OF UNHAPPY PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN SCAMMED-----AND I CAN ASSURE YOU SOME OF THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT AT ALL HAPPY AND ARE GOING TO TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION. SOON THERE WILL NO LONGER BE ANY MORE SCAMMING IN THE SPORTS HANDICAPPING BUSINESS AS THESE GUYS WILL LEARN PUNKING OVER GOOD PEOPLE DOES NOT PAY IN THE LONG RUN.......IT'S FINALLY TIME TO PUT OUT THE GARBAGE FOR GOOD!!! **************************************************************** EXPOSED---PART 3--RUSS "THE BLACKMAILER" CULVER--AND VEGAS INSIDER Well folks as you know I expose the biggest cons and scammers weekly here and on my Radio Shows and with my weekly Football Magazine...but I have to say this one is the leader of them all. Living here in Las Vegas you really get to see first hand how easy it is to get over (or punk over) the public and the average Joe sports bettor. Anyone who tells you anything different than "Money talks" is a complete idiot. Spending enough money in the Handicapping business and having the money to pay off people who write columns in this town for newspapers is really all you need to totally con and mislead the public. Never before have I seen a guy and a company get sooooo much publicity for picking losers, losers and more losers. Its simply amazing. First we look at the kingpin leader of Vegas Insider...Russ "The Fat Blackmailer" Culver. In my entire life I have never seen someone lose as much as this guy has the past 7 or 8 years. And to make it worse...he also claims he is a linesmaker. This clown simply picks all the worst teams in every sport...using absolutely NO handicapping skills whatsover. He consistently loses and yet he is touted as one of the sharpest Cappers there is. Why?? How?? The answer is simple. He gets paid by CBS Sports to run a gambling/betting website. This salary guarantees he and his family eats. He simply cant bet his plays because if he did, when he went thru a two year losing streak of minus well over 300 games in all sports he wouldve went bankrupt. Now how come he is percieved to be a winning handicapper?? It's because his paid staff writes articles over and over claiming how great he is. He has been in tons and tons of Contests over the past 10-12 years and one time he has a nice run in the NFL and he wins a Contest and all you hear is "Russ Clueless-Handicapping Champion". But folks, if you give out plays all year and at years end you are minus...you are not a champion of anything. If you are in 10 Contests a year and win one and finish dead last in all the others...are you a Champion? Hellllllll nooooooooo!!! I laugh at the way they only tell you what he won...not what he has lost over the years. If you stick to a ridiculous way to pick games....once every ten years you may win. Trust me folks, if he wasnt getting a guaranteed paycheck from Vegas Insider---he would be working at Burger King. No way anyone can ever win picking only horseshit last places teams every week. And to see him pick 17 games a day in Baseball on VI..I mean how much of a bunch of bullshit is that?? No way he or anyone would bet 17 games in one day....but sure..its easy to tell people to bet or/sell that many plays to customers. No sane bettor though would ever bet like that. But the reason he gets away with that ridiculous way of picking is he sells you the plays and he doesnt bet a damn nickel. Then you add places like the Stardust over and over telling you how great he is and the public believes it. I am telling you right now...my mother could win more than he can. All I can say is...if that site is so full of great handicappers...why did they lay off soooo many employees?? If you have the best in the world at something.. then you should be making more money then you could possibly count. If V.I. simply wagered small bets of $1,000 on every Handicapper on their site...they would make a killing right?? Wronggggggggg!! In College Hoops alone last year...this group of so called Experts finished 101 games behind. Now maybe the owners did bet their plays and lost their ass and thats why they had to lay off so many employees. Its obvious that the people buying the plays the past few years got killed betting the Cappers selections and no income came in to pay the employees. Now I not only take off 23 weeks, but I expanded this year and hired another worker just to give out plays to call in clients. And here I am just a regular little handicapper. I dont know.. but something seems awfully fishy here. You see folks, big money backing you can carry you for quite awhile. That and being in a "Click" where everyone pats each other on the back and tells us (the public) how great they are. They make you believe they are all Great. Of course when your buddies with a guy like Joe Lupo and he puts you in a Contest over and over and a guy like John Kelly hypes you to the moon....you can fool alot of people. But you cant fool me or half the town as they see all the awful Contest picks you give. Really in life we have heroes and cowards. Russ Culver is simply nothing but a coward. He can move out of Vegas...but he will always be a coward. He cons people selling picks and blackmails good people and then moves out of state running like a little baby. Thats OK Russ...your nothing but a piece of garbage and you always will be. Maybe this week you can pick one team with a winning record....naaahh....that would mean you actually did some homework before you made your picks instead of just taking the 6 worst NFL teams every week praying they might cover the spread. Listen folks, it will be another ten years before CluelessCulver wins another Football season. That system wins by luck only once a decade. Maybe you can pick the Redskins again this week as your Best Bet???? Or maybe Rutgers in CFB? You are the biggest joke in the history of Sports handicapping. See you at Burger King soooooon....only a matter of time before Offshore Books stop advertising on your site and then you my man are HISTORY!!!! Can you say "Hello mam'-would you like that order Supersized?? You might want to practice that line-- you should be saying it alot very sooooooon.
