Beat: Am a freak and a very weird dude.

He isn't, and that's great. The issue is that simpletons like Nation and yourself seem to expect that we should. Heaven forbid that we point out that 1- his weight might be an issue in terms of corporate sponsorship or that 2- it's silly to suggest you'd trade places with him in a heartbeat.

You simply cannot exist on the internet if you can't distinguish these kinds of conversations from people insulting your son.

Man you're sooooo right with point 1....I mean I can't think of any overweight guys that have ever been signed by poker sites because it sets a bad corporate example.

Maybe we should ask Fossilman, or Benyamin, or Doyle, or Todd, or.....I think you get the point.

Did's attitude reminds me of my mom ---- when she was a smoker she was about as rude as you could get --- she lit up in the basement of a CHURCH and they had to ask her to put it out (this was many years ago fwiw) -- but then when she quit she was probably even ruder walking up to people in open outside spaces and telling them she could smell the smoke and to put their cigarette out ........ WTF

And if he does what they've done, then he might get picked up. But he hasnt, so the weight IS an issue.

raymer won the WSOPME, and the others were icons before they were sponsored. gobboboy is just some 'd00d' with a 2nd place finish in a foreign tournament, who apparently has a lot of fans in the 2+2 community (which is not at all FTP's target audience).

Since this thread has gotten so deep and people don't want to look back, there were plenty of posts before Dids' saying the same thing- this was mine about 10 posts before Dids said anything in the thread

boo [censored] hoo. If Gobbo were in the position Howard was in, running the company and really didn't want someone on the team, I'm sure he would say stuff about people A LOT worse than that. I think he's so particularly acidic because he's trying to get the point across, to keep the FT guy from emailing him Gobbo's retort or something like that.

I'm just curious.. and not reading this whole retarded thread.. but why does he need full tilt to back him? Since he got 2nd at Aussie Millions! He should be rollin in dough.. or did he eat it all already?
