Tampa radio sports jock reads RX story

[Mr. Jones]

"Big Dog" Steve Deumig, of Tampa's Sports Animal 620 AM, read word for word the entire RX page one story "10 THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE SENDING MONEY OFFSHORE" this afternoon, giving proper attribution and encouraging listeners to log on to this site and the others before sending out money. Particularly urged "newbies" to do so.

I think he mentioned something about morning guy Chris Thomas doing the same, although I caught a bit of static and may not have heard right.

In his own unique way, reading slowly and pausing often for dramatic effect, Deumig particularly stressed reading the rules and dwelled upon the "wiseguy/syndicate" clause as an escape clause for a book to not pay.

BTW, exactly which share of the market is BetPanAm looking for with that same clause in their rules?

[Angelle]

seriously????

WOW

[Sr Muny]

One of BETPANAM RULES

If a member’s account remains unused for a period of twelve months, the company reserves the right to close the account and assume ownership of any and all outstanding balance left in the account

OUCH................

[Journeyman]

He was a Sports Anchor in Baltimore about 15 years ago...He moved on to Fla. I wonder if its the same guy?

[Mr. Jones]

Has to be. He's the most cryptically funny guy on the radio, owns horses and talks about Pimlico all the time. A nerdy looking, skinny legged Irishman.

[Journeyman]

Has to be Chris Thomas! He was always a wise guy, funny man...He was the best local sports guy we had...I`m sure its him by the description!

So I guess he reads TheRx.com

Hello Chris Thomas if your out there, sign in and post!

[Patrick McIrish]

Chris Thomas is a good guy. Can't go to the tracks without seeing him around, I've talked to him a couple of times as a buddy of mine knows him real well. I listen to those guys sometime but didn't hear where Duemig read it.

Steve is okay too, my only beef with him was I thought he went over the line on his attacks with Dilfer. Those two put a new definition to the word hate. LOL. Anyway Dilfer is gone now and both these guys talk gambling so I am fond of both of them now.

[Mr. Jones]

He really is a good guy Pat and about as funny as can be. I agree that Deumig went overboard with the Dilfer thing, but I'll tell you what his post game Lightning show was a class act until the took him off of that. Lightning loses haven't been the same since.

Thomas's 5 Star Handicapping show on Friday and Deumig's Vegas Insider Friday afternoon are not to be missed. Yea, Deumig did do this today I caught it from point 3 on, as I was driving in Hernando County bringing my car home from the body shop.

[Patrick McIrish]

I believe you Mr Jones, I can tell the way he talks about his daughter and all he is proud of her and probably a good father. I also certainly agree about the Lightning show as well, he did that very well. That was some goober (to use his word) who took him off that. I have been critical at times in the past (almost entirely about Dilfer) but have said my piece and moved on. I probably agree with him on the majority of everything else he does. Like everyone else I am sure he would be the first to tell you that you got to have thick skin in his business.

Matter of fact my wife spoke with him the other night while he was doing his show and was very impressed. Even talked to him off the air she said about various things. Yeah I can't say much bad about Chris or Duemig, being a gambler hell what more can I ask for. I'll go down with Chicago Billy once or twice this year and hear his Friday show like I did last year.

[Patrick McIrish]

BTW welcome to the site sir. You live close enough to hook up one day for a cold one. Let me know if we can assist you in anything or you have any questions about the site, the books, or anything else.

[2006]

Some of the best local talk you will hear. Not even a contests between them and ESPN for pure sports talk/sportsbetting. Speaking of ESPN they have resorted to discussing gay sitcoms in an attempt to increase their market share. This network has gone to shit.

[Mr. Jones]

Pat if you're talking about Chris' show Friday morning, I try to get to that a few times myself. Tell you what,look for a beard under an Orange Vols hat thats been beer soaked a few times. Never too many guys wearing one of those.

[Hache Man]

Yes Journey, he has to bet the same guy, when he was still an anchor on channel 8 down here, he always brought up the Orioles.His radio show at 10 AM every morning is great, and consists mainly of gambling issues, and he very quick to admit he's a big gambler.

[Fishhead]

McIrish- Is this cool or what? I barely ever miss Steves show and today had to be one of them.....12-3 with Rome and 3-6 with Steve.

[Patrick McIrish]

Fish - this is cool. They know people are going to gamble and by sending them here they have at least a chance to not get stiffed or play into a bad book with a history. Very decent of them to do this.

Jones - exactly right, I was referring to Chris Thomas and his handicapping show. Not to make this sound like a 620WDAE commercial but those two guys do great, part of the show is to induce callers to call. You can't always have the listeners agree. Neither of them hide behnd that PC crap and I have always liked that. I even like Ian a great deal when he gets in.

Only bad part of the day IMO (when I could listen more) was when Rome came on. I have no idea why we had to listen to him, made Sileo sound like a Hall of Famer. Of course others may love Rome but I just can't get through a whole show of how great he is.

[Fishhead]

I have been telling people this for years.....the JIM ROME show is great for handicapping. Lots of juicy information is to be had on this show.

[Hache Man]

Pat, Chris doesn't really like Rome either. He has agreed with several callers who suggested the station stop broadcasting Jim Rome many times, but he always says "we just can't do it".

[Fishhead]

Jim Rome is GREAT!
Best interviewer in the business by far.

Now that punk Jeremy Schapp is the guy that needs a new career. I would rather hear nails across a chalkboard before listening to this wannabe. Was born into his job...shameful.

[Mr. Jones]

Irishman and Fish, I've been out of town for awhile and it's great to be back and hear these two again. But I'll tell you one thing you can have that Penner guy. I don't even know if he's on the air anymore, cause I don't get up that early. But that rat bastard almost caused me and the wife to expire on that Body Solutions shit awhile back.

We lost exactly zero pounds and were physically ill. You know there was a class action suit somewhere in regards to that shit. But, I personally know Al Meilus and that's one hell of a good treatment.

[Fishhead]

BODY SOLUTIONS!.......your killing me Jones. LMFAO. Those were funny commercials.

[Patrick McIrish]

"Rat bastard"...... http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Jones that story is killing me. Hi Sandy Penner here with Body Solutions...... LMAO!!

[Mr. Jones]

Yea Fish, and Penner almost killed me. But listen I just don't get it with Rome. I guess I'm too old. The guy is to full of himself and to full of "SOCAL." God I hate that phrase.

Here's what finally made me turn Rome off. He was interviewing Chad Millman you know the guy that wrote "The Odds One Season, Three Gamblers, And the Death of Their Las Vegas."

Great book, I'm making the assumption every even half serious sports gambler has read it and if you haven't run don't walk to a bookstore and get it before it goes out of print. All about Bob Scucci, Alan Boston, the Stardust-got to read it guys.

Well anyway, Rome gets off high and mighty about what an ahole Rodney--a young Vegas gambler--who is actually making it in Vegas on college hoops is. Then gives a 10 or 15 minute sermon about the evils of sports gamblimg and how it is absolutely impossible to win. I know his demographic is college kids but WTF.

Sorry Fish a year or two ago, I'd switch to the Sportschicks 12 to 3. I think they were on about that time.

[Fishhead]

Wish I would have heard that episode. Darn it.

Thanks for sharing.

[THE SHRINK]

Does this mean I should write more? http://therxforum.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

[Stephen]

By all means http://therx.infopop.cc/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[jwunderdog]

Rome sucks, Bruno is the real deal except when talking about Philly. Over 1/2 of Rome's show has nothing to do with sports, it's like a Jerry Springer Radio show.

I like Steve (Big Dog) because he's not afraid to tell the truth, even if he catches hell for it from "certain" callers.

http://www.620wdae.com/timages/page/Big_Dog_Nameplate.jpg

I have personally talked with Big Dog about The RX in the past.

He checks "both sites" on occasion, but says he will never post on any online forum.....

[The Pig]

I can't believe I just listened to an hour of that garbage...

[Black Bart]

Duemig did post once upon a time. The best part of getting xm radio for Xmas was not having to listen to him on the way home.

Thomas was unmatched in his knowledge of gambling. His Friday football shows were better than a regular paycheck. When he passed on, Steve tried to take on that role.

A lot of people really buy into his act. He tries to portray himself as "sharp", but he really doesn't know what he's talking about. He contradicts himself constantly, sometimes in the same call or segment. He puts some touts on and tries to make himself sound like one of them by throwing around some Vegas-sounding language around. It's embarassing to listen to him. As for picking games, he's the king of the after-the-fact "I had that one last week". Again, he contradicts himself so much that he might have had all sides of every game by the time the week is over. A sober Whitney Johnson (if there is such a thing--doesn't he always sound drunk and incoherent?), a rotation schedule, and a dart board would get you more winners.

Steve's a nice guy, but he's about as "sharp" as a marshmallow.
