WHAT HAVE BEEN THE BIGGEST BONEHEAD MOVES IN THE OFFSHORE INDUSTRY?

[TommyMullins]

FOR SOME REASON I BEGAN THINKING ABOUT THE IDIOT WHO NAMED HIS BOOK "YAHOOPS" AND WAS FORCED TO CHANGE IT. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE OTHER ALLTIME GREAT BONEHEAD THINGS DONE IN THE INDUSTRY?

 

[TommyMullins]

HERE ARE A COUPLE I CAN THINK OF OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD:

1- THE DUMBASSES BETTING THE SUPER BOWL AT ACES GOLD RATHER THAN REALIZING THE SHOP WAS IN DIRE TROUBLE AND GETTING THEIR MONEY OUT

2- THE SECUREBUXX MORON FLOODING HIS MEMBER BOOKS WITH PHONEY ACCOUNTS

PLEASE ADD MORE!!

 

[Buzzsaw]

No way to top those two. Further down the list would be:
PanAm taking on Pinnacle with their lunch money

MarkDel going from poster to bookmaker for sharps & angle shooters

 

[TommyMullins]

THAT MARK DEL POPPOLO THING WAS A TRAVESTY. DOES ANYONE STILL GET MAIL FROM HIS FATHERS TOUT COMPANY?

 

[TommyMullins]

HOW ABOUT THAT DUFUS WHO CALLS HIMSELF STING IM SURE SOME OF HIS ANTICS SHOULD MAKE THIS TOPIC NO?

 

[JimFiestSux]

BetCBS.com forced to change name!!

 

[TommyMullins]

YEAH THAT CBS THING WAS TOTAL BONEHEAD MATERIAL. AT FIRST GLANCE I WASNT SURE WHAT WAS GOING ON THERE. THEN I SAW THE CBS LOGO WAS IDENTICAL TO THE BROADCAST COMPANY! THOSE GUYS ARE IDIOTS!!!!!!

 

[JudgeWapner]

TM,all of those rank up there.

 

[JimFiestSux]

Actually I'm surprised that FF (First Fidelity) isn't sued and forced to change their name!!

 

[Marco]

JFS....I don't know about the rep of First Fidelity or how they print thier checks, but if it says "First Fidelity" on it, I'd feel better about it if I got one Fed-Ex and went to my local bank to deposit it....

....probably draw less suspicion, what with all the anti-gambling laws and banks being leary of gambling transactions....

 

[TommyMullins]

HOW ABOUT RON SACCO GOING ON 60 MINUTES AND SNUB HIS NOSE IN THE FACE OF THE AMERICAN JUSTICE DEPARTMENT?

 

[JimFiestSux]

Marco,
I understand your thinking! I've used First Fidelity for 8 years now! Every transaction says sender as First Fidelity but from Costa Rica should bring red flags,lol!

 

[JudgeWapner]

The not so Securebux thing has to be up there.

 

[TommyMullins]

FIRST FIDELITY SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT COMPANY ITS SUCH A SHAME THEY HAVE A JILLION TICAS MAKING COLD CALLS IN THE MARKETING DEPARTMENT. THAT REALLY DIMINISHES CREDIBILITY IN A HURRY!

 

[BoratSagdiyev]

Actually IMO betcbs and yahoops although they were forced to change their names,probably benefitted from the confusion or association with those established brands. Sacco has to take the prize.

Ron Sacco's lawyer worked a miracle on the justice department. I would not question anything he ever does. Just my opinion.

 

[JohnnyDeMarco]

TM
First Fidelity would not make those calls if people did not respond.

Could you or someone else elaborate on this? Sounds interesting.

First Fidelity checks do not have that name on the checks themselves. But it good to get familiar with them given the very high neteller fees they can charge without disclosing them on their site.

 

[TommyMullins]

JOHNNY IT WAS A DUMB MOVE FOR RON TO GO ON 60 MINUTES. WHAT THE FUKK WAS THE POINT OF THAT? ALL HE DID WAS ATTRACT MORE UNNECESSARY ATTENTION TO THE INDUSTRY AND HELP LAND HIS ASS BACK IN THE CAN!
