Wayne Allan Root = Bitch!

So our local morning show guys were all set to have Wayne Alan Root on weekly to talk college football picks. They got an idea that they should test their picks each week against the spread against Wayne's just for fun. So they emailed him the idea and haven't heard back from the guy. They've tried calling and emailing and now Wayne won't respond.

What a fucking bitch! Gee, I wonder why he wants nothing to do with that!! Hmmm............

No, it couldn't be because giving someone his picks for a radio show would defeat purpose of charging people for them. It wouldn't be that would it?

How does paste taste?
Nope, nice try but you're wrong.

He was going to give some picks away (no, not his main games). He had already agreed to that. It was after they told him they wanted to compete against him that he refused to respond anymore.

Now would you like to try and take another guess as to why that is????

I have never understood why anyone would give two fucks what one of these touts has to say.

They have the critical, game-deciding information you need in order to crush your man, and they're releasing it FREE on a recorded message if you call now!

I agree Mook but it would be funny to watch them be proven as frauds.

Not that it would change anything, but at least the fraud would be documented for everyone to see.
Rick Reilly did this in a story for SI over 15 years ago.

Not that keeping track of it would be easy, anyway. Touts will take both sides of the same game, which guarantees at least some repeat business.

Yeah, I've been told they will give 1 pick to certain callers and take the other team to other callers. I think this has actually been proven true. That's how they get 90% on Monday Nights or whatever it is they claim. Technically, they are correct but they're not telling you that they also got 90% wrong!

Wayne Allan Root can't be bothered with such peons.

As the Libertarian VP candidate for the presidency, he has bigger and more important people to talk to; the weatherman turned political pundit on Fox and Friends.
