    Not sure why he gets the credit, hell he is posting someone else's picks!  Nothing better than blindly tailing someone who is blindly tailing phone calls!  This is the funniest thing I have ever seen and I will be here when the ship sinks..

    Should we tail you plays then?  

    I'd rather not......  You are pretty fucking clueless dumbass.  Why don't you just stay out of his threads..

    Thank you

    DOES HE POST "PHONE CALL" PLAYS = YES

    DOES HE HAVE INTEGRITY/HONESTY = NO
