Surick got early release and is currently in a halfway house in NJ.

His wife divorced him while in jail.

His brother ran a fledging lawn service company in his absence.

Rainman, what is a "real life"?

You talk about others spewing the same nonsense over and over.   You are the poster child for that.

Good morning m,

Let me see-

Work and make $$$

Hang out and seeing my horses that I own a part of at sunshine meadows in the winter and traveling to watch them race in the summer.

In my case I get out to bowl competitively with my friends once a week and forget about the world for a few hours.

Invest in the market and keep up with what’s happening.

Socialize with my friends.

Other constructive things.

Are you satisfied with the answer?

Harness Racing / Re: Sakit Suffers From PDS

He's a fake.

Meant to annoy.

Nobody is that dumb by circumstances.
Trigger,

We get it. And you should get that we're tiring of you and SCM using every other thread to boost him.

Personally, I'm especially tired of it. So fucking tired .

So,  ;D

I went ahead and asked grok:

"Is Shopping Cart Mike on horseplop respected?
[/i]

And grok said this:

No, Shopping Cart Mike (real name Michael Petrelli, often abbreviated as SCM) is not respected on Horseplop.com.


From the forum's threads and discussions (which is a major online community for harness racing enthusiasts, bettors, and insiders), he is overwhelmingly viewed negatively.Key patterns from Horseplop topics:He's frequently insulted with nicknames like "Shopping Cart Moron," "Sleazy Cunt Mike," and similar derogatory terms.
Multiple threads mock him, question his motives (e.g., "Is Shopping Cart Mike Really Saving Horses Or Does He Think He's Playing God??"), accuse him of hypocrisy, rage, or self-promotion in horse rescue/carriage horse activism.
There are repeated "emergency polls" and discussions about banning him permanently (e.g., "How long until Shopping Cart Mike Petrelli Gets Banned?"), with some users pushing for it as the "best way forward."
Posts describe him as untrustworthy, angry, harassing people (including elderly or women), or unreliable in his claims about horses/harness racing issues.
Sarcastic threads like "Shopping Cart Mike --- Great Harness Racing Career" appear to be pure mockery, with high view counts but no positive endorsements.
Even when he interacts or posts, responses often call him out as "scared-ass," "tough guy" in a belittling way, or criticize his behavior toward others in the industry.

Overall, he seems to be a polarizing, drama-heavy figure on the site—often the target of ridicule, calls for bans, and personal attacks rather than admiration or respect.

Horseplop consensus there paints him as more of a disruptive troll or controversial activist than a respected contributor.If you're asking because of a specific thread, incident, or his recent activity (as of late 2025 mentions), feel free to share more details for a deeper look![/i][/b]

I’m really not concerned about the wealthy!

All I know is I’m far from broke and living a real life.

Trigger is right!  What’s it like to live in a dungeon and spew the same nonsense over and over again and not having a life!

Harness Racing / Re: A Harness Racing Data Insider’s Exit Interview
« Last post by Calhoun on Today at 10:49:35 AM »
Greetings fellow harness racing enthusiasts! I wrote the following article late last year while still involved in the standardbred industry. The piece discusses my career in harness racing, where the game is at today and its outlook for the future. Although it never found an audience or outlet for publication, I though the content was relevant to share with those still invested in the sport. I look forward to seeing your comments.

Download PDF article here

Nice article.

But you left out the most important factor.

You include discussion of TrackMaster. But what you didn't go deeper into TM. You should have.

TrackMaster is owned by Equibase. Equibase is owned by The Jockey Club, old line BlueBloods and TRA (Race Tracks). 

These are the 100 PEOPLE WHO CONTROL HORSE RACING DATA.

Every single program you've ever read comes from these same people.

You want a DRF for 1 card... $6. You want data files to do analysis?  Tremendously expensive and they for sh!t.

I'm no data scientist like you but I know a few. They all say that there need to be 3 types of files that would include every last line item for all racing.

But TJC/Racetracks don't allow that. Shortsightedly, they squeeze every nickel because it's a mature to declining market the way it's run.

Look at the data available for baseball. Think about the data crunched by FanDuel, et al to provide live odds.  Your brokerage website data, etc...

DATA SHOULD BE FREE.

tldr

Try just not lying for once.

All your videos back to the first of the year...

All have ZERO comments.  ZERO.

Except your New Year's video that got you 3 (3) remarks.

You are dishonest. No doubt about it.

No wonder your family hates you.

Get a job.

69k views since January 1st. Guess you're forgetting about TikTok, there's a vid there with 128k views alone. And remember when you said I had a short that got zero views? Are you sure you're not Sakit? I gave you way too much credit. tmbz1

Thoroughbred Racing / Re: RIP John Sherrifs
« Last post by Papillon on Today at 10:43:36 AM »
in the late 90s--he trained a mare named Manistique--a winner of seven Grade 1/Grade 2 races in California

wagering from home was new and I was using YouBet to watch the races on my computer and using a Pennsylvania cell phone to wager on an ADW named Phonebet from my home in New Jersey before 4NJBets was formed

seems like a lifetime ago

banded...people typing this tell you all you need to know about them (and I get that it's a "joke"). But all bags.

Banning me accomplishes exactly the same as people talking about me here.....NOTHING  ngc3
