Tons of incoming money from everyday horsemen and from Gural going to the SRF.

Mike does not have the ability to shut down anything.  He is doing a nice thing, but that's all.  Did SCM really get banded?  I enjoyed the banter and how he would fly off the handle just start cussing and calling names.  ngc3

I'm sure he did. Speaking your mind only goes so far on here. A certain mod loves playing with the banned and delete buttons.

agree
Thank you mr. pig land for doing a great job at getting rid of SCM once and for all. He was just no good for this forum. Keep up the good work.

His latest video (not 45 minutes long) has one asking if SEEING EYE TO EYE with Gural, Settlemore, and Cotes includes;

Petrelli’s view on the Standardbred Retirement Foundation.

And his working with PETA n NYCLASS on the defunding of harness racing in NY.

Or, is it an, The Enemy Of My Enemy Is My Friend situation?

That’s why I left the game, if you can’t figure out you are being swindled then you are the sucker.

And he got a free hot meal!  Congrats SCM!  tmbz1

But I do agree the BigM wouldn't be around if it weren't for Gural.  But what do you expect from greedy thieving horsemen?  Ungrateful!!!

A free meal & got his say. A good job by Mike.

I agree with many of the things he talks about.  I love busting his balls because he is full of himself for whatever reason now.  And no one takes him seriously, including Gural and co. due to the way the talks to people.  Who could take someone serious or donate to someone that uses that kind of language in his videos and a public forum?

I agree with some of your points. Bad language ? Yes.  Full of himself ? Yes. But NO ONE  taking him seriously. ??  Sorry.  The groups that want to do away with racing would love to talk with him and how many people could get a meeting with Gural and Settlemore ?
He has rocked the boats of several people and the USTA by saying exactly what many in the business think but don’t speak out because of the repercussion they would be subjected to. 
Like he says “I have nothing to lose”. 
He could be very good for harness racing or very dangerous.  Time will tell.

Good for Mike.  He started taking advice from me and others here.  That turned things around for him. 

Perhaps God has sent harness racing its savior?

That all said, in the video he looked like he could use a hot meal.

He plays a little lose with language. Example “….seeing eye to eye….” I questioned that on a couple subjects SRF and Funding in NY (because that seemed a stretch to me)
He comes back with a follow-up (which is good to do) video explaining that seeing eye to eye isn’t “agreeing”. I had to look that up on the internets just to make sure my Biden hadn’t taken over (thankfully it hadn’t).
Anyway, asking for clarification …. or calling him out …. Makes one a troll. I guess I am, since I do spend way too much time viewing his videos. My question is; if one views his videos without questioning, are they still a troll?

Guy just wants to hurt people in the business, the saving horses bullshit is a smoke screen for a degen that needed cover for how much he hates the industry. “I’m ending horse racing for horses” is complete bullshit. Where are they gonna go? PETA kills 75% of the animals it takes in. He should hand his rescues over to them, and see what happens before he tries to hand everyone else’s horses over to their tender mercies

Get the FUCK outta here with your nonsense. He could hurt or help harness racing. Nobody gives a fuck what that ass clown says. He is in the next round to be indicted. Mike was pre racing horses with his brother frank at Golden shoe a few years ago. Yeah sure someone is going to listen to a guy who can’t afford to buy a new pair of pants and they’re scared of him. Tell me what he’s accomplished or done so far? How has he helped or hurt the sport? He cheated a few guys out of money to save a horse. Good for him. Horseplop put the guys name out there but you see what happened when he got called out over here? He ran away with his tail between his legs.

This is all 100% about a pissing contest with Mark Ford and a few others.  He got told to hit the bricks because he had a big mouth.  He claims it was over track conditions, but I was told that was well after the fact.  He is hoping this nice guy act of saving horses deflects from why this all started.  And yes, he is fostering some horses...good for him.  But this about a grudge!  He is a bustout loser and wants the sport cleaned up...but only if you have a different last name than him.  Somehow that's ok isn't SCM?  tmbz1

I completely agree with that.  But you are fooled by his motives.

He now refers to himself as Shopping Cart Mike   ngc3

I'm pretty proud of that.  I should have (TM) the phrase. 

That aside all he did was beg Calhoun to send him even more money so he can give another horse a bath and a massage.

I love the guy.
