Mel one thing I’ve learned is, it’s never over until the clock reads zero

I’ve been very fortunate that you didn’t hit that big price

I apologize if you felt I talked down to you I truly feel I didn’t
could be my sarcasm

I’d be more than willing to give you a rematch at anytime

I learned a long time ago never to take things too seriously in a forum like this. Things we type can be taken the wrong way too easily. There's no way to type tone or sarcasm and be sure someone won't misunderstand the meaning. I never felt like I was being talked down to, by the way. You don't owe me an apology. I will, however, say that I didn't like the name-calling when you got into it with Michelangelo. I don't think that type of stuff has any place with this group. I come to this forum everyday because I enjoy the camaraderie as we all join together with the singular purpose of making a couple of bucks in this great sport. I may be naïve, but I root for every single one of you on this board that put your neck out there to share the results of your daily handicapping.
You played this contest intelligently, patiently, and deserve the "W". Thanks for an enjoyable competition. I'll be there for the rematch!

Mel:
I’m glad you never felt I talked down to you and you’re correct everyone’s “tone” doesn’t come through the internet

You’re also right I got a bit carried away with my verbiage with Michelangelo and for that I apologize to you and him

I should have just let it go
