hey know ones saying the guy cant play poker. Or is your inarticulate allusion a homosexual desire you have for the pretty boy?

[/ QUOTE ]

how the [censored] does someone spell inarticulate allusion correctly and 'noone' so incorrectly in the same sentence rofl....

[/ QUOTE ]

How does someone attempt to berate someone on their grammar and then go on to look like a jackass himself?

"noone" is actually two words "no one"

And "allusion" is spelled with an "i" not an "a"

Default Re: Antonio The Magician .... which is the measure of the man ?

First let me say I work with Antonio and he is a good friend so obviously I am biased.

Second, I now run MagicAntonio for Antonio and that rocks and rings stuff is leaving. As a mark of who Antonio really is that was a marketing agency telling him what was best for him at the time. Obviously they were big time off. Antonio never complained, never said anything, even though he was being massacred by everyone. Including friends. When that site started Antonio was relatively new on the scene and while I can't speak for him directly what I have seen is that he gives companies he works for a lot of leeway. My guess is he gave them even more back then.

I moderate the comments on Antonio's blog. He doesn't want me to do that. Ultimately it is my call and I moderate them (I just want to keep a certain vibe on my site, a lot of it is people begging him for money).

I don't like the camel thing either. When I see Antonio I see an American. There is no question he is either consciously or subconsciously trying to get camera attention when he does it. That is my opinion. But without those moments I think Antonio feels the same pressure that a lot of guys on the show do, you want to do enough to keep getting invited back. Mori has said that guys like Phil and Antonio are shoeins for the show because of the energy they bring to the game.

Antonio is a smart guy. Most people would have freaked out when the rocks and rings thing happened. Antonio didn't, he just shut his mouth and sucked up all the criticism. It isn't just forums, when you are a guy like Antonio you hear it everywhere.

Ultimately I doubt my post will make a difference to anyone, people think what they think. But it sucks when your friends don't have your back when people are saying stuff about you and in terms of Antonio he is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. The incidents with Antonio are few and far between but when he does have one he learns from it.

His blog today is about the AA hand but it is in the hands of an editor at the moment.

The people I know who've played with Antonio have nothing but nice things to say about his play/attitude fwiw.

Wow you actually went back in my history to try to prove a point which I think you did expertly.

FYP

[/ QUOTE ]

For a person with 7 posts you made a quote and changed it in bold which is a thing I have only seen on 2+2 and you also used "FYP". I still don't even know what it means. Maybe its a fake account so it can sound like someone is agreeing with him. So sad...

Also, does Antonio call women Bettys because the ones that he dates all look like this?



[/ QUOTE ]

yeah, who says this besides him. mildly annoying stuff in the attempt to be really cool

he really needs to hire someone to write new lines for him. the last 2 nights on PAD the exact same things, word for word, were coming from him as the HSP shows. "it's a pleasure and an honor to be sitting among..."
