In the mail today, I get a postcard sent to me from a gambling service daytradesports that also promotes a site called dukewins. Well, I thought it was just a normal postcard advertisement and was about to throw it out when I notice that in the spot where my name is supposed to be, in its place is my most prominent ONLINE PASSWORD. Yes, instead of using my name in the address they put my password instead. If i find out which book or site has done something this stupid to sell my password to this service, I will never touch them again.
when i was 12 years old that guy known as the duke called my house and swore up and down on these 3 preseason games...the 1st was an under.....he said if he doesn't go 3-0 the whole season is free....the score was 3-0 at the half then he called again to brag....the 2nd half was crazy and they scored like 42 points and the game went over and he also lost the other 2 games....so he called me on the monday after to try to real me in...i said i thought the season was free...u went 0-3....he then said come on kid this is a bussiness u really think i'm gonna give u the season free...he then threatened me...so i told him i was only 12 and he went on and on so i then hung up....that was like 16 years ago....ever since then i've never called or listened to a tout service.
My buddy had a good experience with that ass. I have related it before.
He sucked the guy in, lost like 60% and then the guy stopped payment on the charges(when you could do it retroactively) So this clown calls him and asks for his address. Actually it was his "brother" who tries the nice guy approach at first saying he goes in the tank and offers to give him picks if the guy sends him half the original balance (western union) the guy telss him to beat it. So the "brother" gets pissy and thratening ans spitting into the phone, Then he asked for this guys address. He of course gave him a fake one donw on the waterfront.
He then calls me up, I get the number and call and start asking this guy questions. Then I asked him if he really thought he or his "boys" would come up to Maine for a couplehundred bucks? Then I aksed him where THEIR offices were. Because it was the winter and as fisherman we didn't have a lot going on so a nice field trip might do us some good. Needless to say the guy gets even more "tough". But fails to give out the address, or maybe he said somewherein Vegas. Which was bullshit since I am pretty sure they were somewhere in New York. But witout the internet back then and withoutthe "modern" conveniences we have today tracking that guy down wasn't possible.
But knowing me and my buddies we would have probably gone to find him. Afterall at about 22-25 and not a lot going on the story I told him was all that unbelieveable. We liked doing stupid stuff like that back then.
But he is a complete tool. I think he called the kid back one more time, then my buddy ended up calling the BBB (better business bureau)on him and the calls stopped.
I can't believe he is still around, damn that was about 14-15 years ago or so.
I LOVE THESE GAMES

Duke goes back a long way. Started in 1983-4 with the first batch of tout ads in USA Today. Seems to come and go. He will be around a while and very prominent then sink back into the woodwork. He was the first tout to ever tell me to go f' myself on a phone call. He was out of Baltimore back then. Not sure where he slides under his rock today.
Boy if this is true Pinnacle owes a big explanation. How fucking stupid is this Duke to do this. Guys, keep your cards if you didnt throw them away because if anything shows up missing in your Pinnacle account or even your bank account since you can e check Pinnacle now you know who is robbing you.
That scrawny little weasel needs his fucking ass kicked. Red Eye, all the names I called you I will transfer to that weasel.
