Some of you give me way too much credit. But, thank you so much for comparing me to Michael Jordan for a change instead of George Steinbrenner...
I have been blessed along the way with many former employees who have gone forward now to bigger and better careers...

Also, don't ever kid yourselves about something I know from experience. There are thousands of people with much sharper minds than I have who watch this place and other venues, thinking of ways to improve on this foundation...
While there may not be another SHRINK per say, I'd be willing to bet that someone else comes along with a new identity (no pun intended), that will make head ways in this industry and probably put me to shame...
One of the reasons I believe I have been fortunate is that I am constantly looking in the REAR VIEW MIRROR and I always feel that the competition is tail gaiting me...
I owe so much to the sports books who trusted me in the pioneer days and even today, to allow my presence amongst them while at their offices and at social gatherings...
Lastly, without the quality of posters that have been a part of our community, this site would not be amongst the leaders in this industry.
The General, Wilheim, Journeyman, Bucsfan, Fishhead, Dante, Lander and many others in the Board room work so very hard each and every day to help make this place a better one for you gamblers...
Thanks again for the kind words,
THE SHRINK
