In the last 5 years I have been secretly  taking online classes at various schools across the country. I have taking classes and have various degrees in herbology, holistic medicine, aromatherapy, basic nutrition, naturopathy, medical terminology,
physical education, health, herbalism I have degrees from Natural University of Health Sciences, University of Phoenix, Kaplin University,Bastyr, University of Louisville, Ashford, Virginia College online, and have taken many basic courses just for general knowledge in Business, Education and Technology and tennis management.
 
   Yes i should of probaly took a few in writing, not my greatest thing. I also am a certified personal trainer and have trained many people online, through email, skype, over the phone and in person. I am certified through The Athletic Certification Training Commission, The National Council on Strength and Fitness,  and have read and basically memorized all the other certification programs. 

 My theory on being certified is that anyone can become a certified trainer. There are good and many not so good certification programs. Who certifies the certifier and who certfies them? The answer to that is noone. Anyone can open up a gym, anyone can open up a health food store and anyone can become a certified trainer.

 Just because someone is good at something or they have a degree or alot of experience does NOT mean that they know what they are doing or  that they know how to help other people in their field. In fact if your wanted to start your own personal training certification program tommorrow, you can because nobody certifies any certification programs.

 I have helped many many people the past few years and yes I have more people that don't want my help at all. They will have problems and will use excuses on why they should continue training a certain way or why they should continue to drink, smoke, take drugs , etc and try to find faults about the person that is trying to help them as justification in not listening to the person trying to help them.

I do not even follow some of my own advice and what i have learned. Most people see results or succeed in their field because of luck, genes in regards to sports and exercise,  who they know,and  motivation.

Many smart people never go anywhere in life because they are not lucky enough.
Luck and timing plays a big role in someone's success. Luck alone may not get one somewhere special but a little bit of luck will go a long way to get them to a better place.

  In school, following the rules helped them get great grades. In the marketplace, following the rules to the dot will help them lead a “successful” life at best. In average cases, it will lead them to lead a mediocre life.  At the center, you are safe but there is no premium.At the edges, there is less safety but the chances of getting a premium is high. In a “safe” or sandbox environment there was no need to take big risks. In fact, taking risks would not be rewarded.
The thing about risk is that you keep avoiding it and you will get used to avoiding risk. After a while, it becomes VERY uncomfortable to take any risk. And, then – it’s end of the road.

They say success begets success. But they never said “sandbox success” will beget “marketplace success.” In fact, success begets success only when you are willing to adapt to the new situations very RAPIDLY. What worked in their past gives them a feeling that following what made them successful in the past will make them successful in the future.


Early success (even in a sandbox environment) can build up one’s ego. When the person does not keep his or her ego in check, ego slowly transforms into entitlement. When a person feels entitled for something, he or she does not have to act much.

There is no entitlement for anyone in the marketplace. Until one reaches a tipping point, the only question a marketplace asks is “What have you done for me lately?”


In a “sandbox” environment, there was not a big requirement for teamwork. They were able to win the game with a solo act. It worked OK then. Unfortunately, the marketplace requires a bigger push – requiring a larger set of resources to be in play. The first step towards that is to realize that they need “more help” to succeed in the marketplace. Even if they have the skills to complete everything on their own “individually” trying to do everything on their own will be futile. It will have the same effect as an one-man orchestra performance will have.


Nobody has the “midas touch” – which means that sooner than later, they will fail and learn. Some smart people don’t want to fail and may think that a failure will expose that they are “inadequate” in some way. Unless that relationship to failure changes, they will keep trying something that has a sure-shot chance of success. This would automatically lead to tried and tested routes – that will lead to very predictable and probably mediocre lives.

The above list is no way complete. The point of the post is to trigger some thinking on this much needed topic.

Goal + Plan + Motivation is the key to success.

Enough for now. This group is here for me and others to help other people achieve their goals and to improve their life especially in sports, bodybuilding, fitness, powerlifting, health, getting off drugs, and medication and becoming a better person mentally, physically and spiritually.

There was an incident in a Detroit Tigers game several weeks ago that reminded me again that while baseball may indeed be the national pastime, it’s also among the goofiest of activities known to man.

Justin Verlander, the Tigers’ ace, was seven innings into a no-hitter against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim when a speedy swat hitter named Erick Aybar stepped to the plate to start the eighth.

Verlander delivered, and Aybar squared around and bunted the ball between the pitcher’s mound and third base. Verlander jumped on it, but then threw wildly over the first baseman’s head. It was ruled an error, so the no-hitter was still intact. But Verlander was still steamed. He turned and glared at Aybar. And shortly thereafter – related or not - Verlander gave up his one and only hit of the game, and the no-hitter was history.

The Tigers ultimately won the game, but Verlander remained livid. He called Aybar’s action “bush league,” which in baseball parlance means amateurish, because according to baseball’s list of unwritten commandments “thou shalt not bunt or otherwise pitty-pat the ball while the opposing pitcher is throwing a no-hitter.”

The funny thing about this rule – other than it exists at all – is that it’s not well-defined. It doesn’t, for instance, tell a batter how early in the game he should cease and desist from bunting. So a guy who bunts in the fourth inning of a no-hitter might not be frowned upon, but a guy in the sixth inning who does it will probably.

In no other sport will you find such silliness. An NFL wide receiver on his way to the end zone doesn’t intentionally run out of bounds so as not to ruin the other team’s shutout. A basketball player doesn’t pass up a chance to block the shot of an opponent who’s about to set a scoring record. Only in baseball does the unwritten rule say that you shouldn’t do everything possible to win the game.

It’s nuts. But then that’s baseball. This is a sport, after all, in which you’re also not supposed to steal a base when your team has a large lead, and yet, oddly enough, there’s no such rule for hitters. When teams are way ahead, hitters still try to get on base. But when they do, they’re not supposed to steal. Go figure. Why, you might ask, doesn’t the unwritten rule just go all the way and require that baserunners walk or jog between bases?

In baseball, you’re also not supposed to admire your work when you hit a home run, which again makes no sense. If you hit a ball traveling 95 mph with a teeny-tiny stick over a fence 360 feet away, you deserve to stand and admire it or perhaps let fly with a “Yeeha!”

But when hitters do that, baseball tradition dictates that the pitcher throw his next pitch at the next batter, often at his head, which again is nuts. What’d that guy do? He’s not the one who oohed and aahed over the home run he just hit. Why doesn’t the pitcher wait until the guy who hit the home run comes up again and plunk him?

Well, because that’s not what the unwritten rule book says, that’s why.

It gets nuttier, though. When the batter who was just drilled does the sensible thing and charges the mound to pummel the pitcher, who gets thrown out of the game? The batter, and not the guy who tried to injure or kill him.

Now where’s the sense in that?

The curious thing about that particular unwritten rule is that while batters aren’t supposed to celebrate their hitting prowess, the same doesn’t hold for pitchers. Pitchers routinely pump their fists and roar like lions when they strike a batter out. 

The Tigers’ Jose Valverde, for one, does it all the time. And yet never once do you see the next batter “accidentally” helicopter his bat toward Valverde to let him know he didn’t appreciate him showing up his buddy.

That makes me suspicious. You know what I think?

I think pitchers wrote the unwritten rules.

Motivation

READ THIS CAREFULLY, LET IT SINK IN!!!

Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good
mood and always has something positive to say.

When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would
reply, "If I were any better, I would be twins!"

He was a natural motivator.

If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was
there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the
situation.

Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day
I went up to Michael and asked him, "I don't get it! You can't be
a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?"

Michael replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to
myself, you have two choices today.

You can choose to be in a good mood or ... you can
choose to be in a bad mood.

I choose to be in a good mood.

Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be
a victim or...I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from
it.

Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can
choose to accept their complaining or... I can point out the positive
side of life.

I choose the positive side of life.


"Yeah, right, it's not that easy," I protested.
"Yes, it is," Michael said.

"Life is all about choices. When you cut away all
the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to
situations. You
choose how people affect your mood. You choose to be
in a good mood or bad mood.

The bottom line: It's your choice how you live your life."

I reflected on what Michael said. Soon thereafter, I
left the Tower Industry to start my own business. We lost touch,
but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead
of
reacting to it.

Several years later, I heard that Michael was
involved in a serious accident, falling some 60 feet from a
communications tower.

After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive
care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his
back.

I saw Michael about six months after the accident.
When I asked him how he was, he replied. "If I were any better, I'd
be twins. Wan see my scars?"

I declined to see his wounds, but I did ask him what
had gone through his mind as the accident took place.

"The first thing that went through my mind was the
well-being of my soon to be born daughter," Michael replied. "Then,
as I lay on the ground, I remembered that I had two choices: I could
choose to live or... I could choose to die. I chose to live."

"Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I
asked.

Michael continued, "...the paramedics were great.
They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they
wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on
the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got
really scared. In their eyes, I read "he's a dead
man. I knew I needed to take action."

"What did you do?" I asked.

"Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting
questions at me," said Michael. "She asked if I was allergic to
anything.

"Yes, I replied." The doctors and nurses stopped
working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and
yelled, "Gravity."

Over their laughter, I told them, "I am choosing to
live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead."Michael lived, thanks
to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing
attitude. I learned from him that every day we have the choice to
live fully.

Attitude, after all, is everything.

Once muscular growth has been stimulated, it can't be stimulated anymore than what it is. Anymore than the exact precise amount is overtraining. There is no such thing as stimulating the muscles further by doing a 2nd set after doing one set to failure. The stimulus responsible for increasing size and strength is the last rep of a set carried to failure, and that last rep has to be progressive resistance or overload. Aka , one more rep than your previous best or more weight, or more time under tension. A 2nd, 3rd set or more does absolutely nothing but go into your recovery ability causing you not to gain as much muscle or strength that you could have. Mr Olympia dorian yates, 1st mr olympia larry scott, 4 certification programsmt the editor of ironman magazine, the inventor of nautilus and medex and cybex all agree with what i posted. Either growth is stimulated or it isn't.
For the dumb folk that are stubborn or have been brainwashed into believing something else i will explain more.

Think of your muscles as dirt on the ground and building muscle as the mountain on top of the dirt.
You do a set and a hole is dug into the dirt, aka the muscle.

Example: you do a set of standing barbell curls to failure where you can't do another rep. You have damaged, aka , contracted muscle cells.
This is like digging a hole into the ground.
Now by doing a 2nd set or 3rd and so on, all your doing is making the whole deeper and deeper. You do not want to make the whole deeper. By doing the 1 set to failure in the curl you have stimulated growth. Not too many people know , but the exact same chemicals in the body that are used for recovery are the exact same chemicals used for muscular growth.
By doing a 2nd or 3rd set or more after you have done 1 set to failure all your doing is digger a deeper hole , now your body has to use up your resources that would be used for muscular growth. They now have to be used for recovery when they could of been used for growth.
The very 1st thing the body needs to do to grow is to recover. The muscle cannot gain muscle or strength until it has recovered. Aka filling up the hole that was dug. After the hole is filled up, if growth was stimulated, the body then overcompensates and builds dirt on top of the ground, aka, making your muscles bigger.
A set you can normaly perform 10 reps with and for some reason you only did 1 rep, would you ever grow or gain strength? No. Why? Because the intensity of effort on that rep is low and your muscles are not fatigued and have no reason to expand beyond its existing compacity.
If you only did 7 or 8 or 9 reps you still would not grow because your body knows it can do 10 reps . After each rep you do the body contracts more and more muscle cells until it can no longer do another rep. If you do 10 reps your body still would not grow because you can curl the weight ten times.
In order to grow you have to do what you haven't done before and that is an 11th rep . Not 2 or 3 or 4 sets, but 1 set and one set to failure where you can't do another rep and you do that 11th rep.
This goes for all exercises. If you can incline dumbell press 80 pound dumbells for 5 reps, the next workout you either have to do
1. go up in weight or
2. Do the 80 pound dumbells for 6 reps , or more.
No growth can be stimulated by doing a 2nd set or 3rd, or 4th or 5th or 6th set. Once growth has been stimulated by doing that 11 rep on the curl or doing that 6th rep in the dumbell press. No 2nd set is needed or should be even desired. Any more sets goes into your recovery ability and is overtraining.
This is why people can lift weights for years or everybody can do a routine and people can see various results.
They all stimulated growth if they went up in weight or reps, but people are seeing different results only because some people can tolerate more exercise or have different recovery abilities. The fact that you feel like you can do more doesn't mean you should do more and it shouldn't.

I said it earlier in this post and I'll say it again. THE ONE AND ONLY STIMULUS RESPONSIBLE FOR INCREASING SIZE AND STRENGTH IS THE LAST REP OF A SET CARRIED TO FAILURE AS LONG AS PROGRESSIVE RESISTANCE OR PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD IS APPLIED. ALL THE OTHER REPS OF A SET DO NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING BUT WARMUP REPS UNTIL YOU DO YOUR LAST REP WHERE GROWTH CAN BE STIMULATED.

The body was not meant to lift weights. God did not itend for the body to be used for weightlifting. This is only done for various reasons, like getting better at sports, wanting to big build bigger or stronger muscles for whatever your own personal reasons are.
The body has week links when lifting. Like when doing bench presses. The front deltoids and triceps are being worked much more then the chest. Or when doing pulldowns the biceps and shoulders are being worked. This is why people complain when lifting that they feel nothing in a certain area they think they are working.
This is why you should use great form and slow your repititions down so you can get a muscular contraction in the muscle group you are training. Many times it is also necessary to pre exhaust the muscle to remove the week links.
Example: When doing pulldowns you 1st need to warmup your muscles. Do a light set of pulldowns for a few reps, not to failure with a light weight, then do a medium set, aka a slightly heavier set not to failure .
Then go over to the pullover machine and do 1 set to failure in the pullover or in the dumbell pullover with a weight you can do for around 10 reps.
As soon as you cannot do another rep. Walk over to the pulldown and do 1 set to failure in the pulldown. For the very 1st time in your life you may of experienced something you have felt before. The feeling of having to stop your set because you are getting a cramp in your lat or feel it so much in your lats you feel like they are going to explode. You have stimulated real muscle growth without having week links like the biceps and shoulders involved.
No 2nd set is needed . A 2nd set would do nothing but go into your recovery ability causing you not to gain as much strength and muscles as your genetics allows.

The proper way to train has been out for year right in people's faces for everyone to see for years but along the way people have tried to sabbotage it with other various workouts, beliefs, aka, like religious beliefs or economic beliefs to make you believe that something else is the truth, when in fact, the exact opposite may be true, and usually is.

What about certification programs? Anyone can become a certified trainer. In fact you can become a certified trainer online in less than 3 hours. You purchase the program online. You then click the option that you have read the material and are ready to take the test. You then take the test online. You then get graded. 3 hours later you are a certified trainer. Now guess what. Did you know most cerification programs don't even really grade you? Why? Because they want your money. They are not going to flunk anyone for the most part because if they do , then they can't take your money and send you a certification certificate. Most certification programs are exactly alike with some modification so they don't copy other programs. This is how and why anyone can start a certification program. Its all about the money.
So who certifies the cerifier? Who certifies them? The answer is noone. Anyone can be a certified trainer and anyone can start their own certification program. In fact if you wanted to start your own certification program tommorrow, you could and for very little cost.
As an experiment, i stopped writing this and became a certified trainer again in less than 30 minutes. Not hard at all. There are several hundred certification programs and they all have one goal. Get you certified and take your money. Then out of the blue, you need to send more money in a year to remain certified. Did i lose training knowledge in that year that i have to send money to regain it?
The moral is, most certification programs are crap , in fact horrendous just like most training programs people are on.
Most certified trainers don't even know the basic fundementals of their field. This goes for alot of our leaders in various fields. The best trainer at your gym could be the strongest guy , but i doubt it, but could easily be someone that has never touched a weight. You don't gain knowlege by lifting weights. You gain it from learning by reading, and observing and having an open mind. Of course not many knowledgable people have never not touched a weight, but listening to someone with great genes, or on growth hormone or says listen to them because they are certified may not be the way to go either.
This reminds me as a child when i never touched a weight and overheard someone recommend for someone to do 4 sets of 8 on a certain exercise. I was only 4 years old, but i remember asking why not 3 sets of 8 or 5 sets of 8 or 3 sets of 7 or 3 sets of 9.
I never got an answer , except for a mean look. I doubt anyone can clearly answer this, with the exception of myself and a few other individuals. Being a genious that didnt talk much as a child that was known to be shy, such a response by me then was probaly too much for the gym trainer to handle.
Congrats if you read all this. You may have finally learned something this year. This will be posted and has been posted on various forums. Even been offered a job at an online bodybuilding site because of it. Yes its true, im eating doritos as i write this. But we all have things to learn and our own weeknesses.
Goal + plan + motivation is the key to success.

If anyone really want to learn how to lift weights, learn something of value or to finally gain some real muscle, strength, or get in shape or better at there sport. How about contacting someone that will tell you the truth?
Im already training over 400 people across the country online with near 100 percent success rate. All free, I"ll never charge anyone that needs help..
You can contact me, owner of bluegrass fitness
Email me at chrisrobinson44@aol.com or call me. You can also join my yahoo group. Groups.yahoo.com/group/Heavy_Duty. Im ttwarrior4 on yahoo messenger and ttwarrior1 on skype.
I also highly recommend everyone join high intensity nation here on facebook if you want to learn more about training. It maybe better for you to contact me by email or messenger as I'm being swamped by hundereds of emails and messages daily for help.
Thanks for your time.

2.His first post
Everyone

Is Sportsbook.com legit or not? Covers.com ranks them 6th best, but Sportsbookreview has them on the avoid list with a D-. Wish I found this out before I deposited and won huge parlays with them yesterday.

I sent this to SportsbookReview.com , so I'm just making it public. Any thoughts?

"I'm seeking your help to resolve this issue I am having with Sportsbook.com

I am a member of Wager7.com and I recently just signed up with Sportsbook.com. I deposited $1000 and was
looking forward to getting in on the Super Bowl Sunday action. I started by doing a $200 3 team parlay on Italian and English Premiere Soccer UNDER's, and by 8am when that won, I did Chelsea/Liverpool UNDER 2.5 with some of the winnings,
and with the rest (nearly $2,000 now off my initial deposit of $1,000) I submitted a handful of parlays for $500 each of picks like Celtics -4.5 , Heat -11.5, Knicks - 4.5 and Pacers, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Capitals, Capitals UNDER 5.5, etc.......

All of the parlays concluded with the Packers as the final pick!

Everything in my parlays won, and once the Packers completed my handful of parlays I logged into my wager7 account to see my balance - no proble m, and then I logged into my Sportsbook.com account, but couldn't. I tried to, but got an error message that said my account has been disabled, that I needed to contact Customer Service.

I got on live chat and a representative named Andrea helped me by asking that I send in documentation to prove who I was. She said there were inactive accounts that had chargebacks that had used my address of 28191 Singleleaf, etc and asked if I knew who these people were. I told her I had no idea. She asked how long I've lived at this address, I said my whole life and live with my mom and step dad. She said ok to write a note saying I do not know who else would have used my information, that I have no knowledge of it, and have not authorized anyone to use my information. She said to submit it and management would review it to possibly get my account reopened.

So Sportsbookreview.com , I want to make you aware of the situation and see what suggestions you had for m e, or if you could speak to them on my behalf. I won a large amount of money by hitting some 5,6,7,8 game parlays and now all of a sudden my account was disabled and it is very distressing to me. Please look into this matter for me and let me know what I should do as I am not so sure I trust these guys anymore. It seems suspicious that my account gets disabled just because I signed up and won some money with them.

Thank you in advance,

Daniel T"

3. Here is another post by cole, aka daniel tag

EXACTLY which is it!?!?!? Until tonight, they only said my address was the same as on file with inactive accounts. Wasn't even told those inactive accounts had chargebacks until now. And then they said IP address so I don't know if they are just clarifying or changing their story. . .So I just got back on chat again and argued to no avail. They are now saying BOTH the billing address and IP address is the same as inactive accounts. I cant believe it. It's sure a nice way for me to look bad because they know I'm going to post this chat transcript so they are going to completely make up stuff now. There is NO WAY there are inactive accounts with MY billing address because wouldn't that mean cards would have had to have come in the mail in these other person's names to MY address for it to be the billing address? And that simply has not happened in the 18 years my family has lived here. Here is the transcript from the chat just now, and they are just lying out their teeth with saying the billing address is the same. I challenged to prove it, show me the records of these people's accounts, but they said they protect customer's records and won't show me but they kept saying the billing address is the same. They are lying, completely lying and now I know I'll never be paid if they just make things up like this to cover their ass. Does any of this make sense???? Look at this transcript, its outrageous, how is this reasonable? They want $800 but they want it from this Delgado, not me. So another lie because they have no intention to pay me huh, if they did why not just take it out of my winnings since I'm willing to just settle this, they insist on having me find the other account holders and get them to contact sportsbook.com to pay what I just offered to pay for them... This whole conversation was strange, and I knew I was dealing with a lie as soon as they said my billing address has been used before. I can guarantee it hasn't, and if anyone has a suggestion how I can prove this, please tell me. Sportsbook.com knows that whoever these other peoples accounts were did NOT use my billing, unless I'm mistaken and people can have a billing address for a card without having it delivered to that address. This would be one enormous coincidence that I wouldn't expect anyone to believe if I didn't have a mailbox key and know for a fact that no one has used my billing address for their cards before - if in fact for a billing address it has to be the address it was mailed to, you can't just make up a billing address without proof of you living there....

HERE IS THE NEWEST TRANSCRIPT

Please wait for a site operator to respond.

You are now chatting with 'Jason Murphy'

Daniel Taghridi: hi we got disconnected

Jason Murphy: Hi Daniel.

Jason Murphy: May I have your username (the one you use to login to your account, NOT your poker nickname) or account number, please?

Daniel Taghridi: *****

Daniel Taghridi: *****

Daniel Taghridi: please update me to the issue here, cuz i don't understand it..someone has used my IP address before??? first it was address... well I can say I've lived here my whole life and I don't know anything about IP addresses , I signed up from home and then I accessed my account from starbucks and a friends house where I used a neighborhoods unsecured signal.. I haven't done anything wrong....

Daniel Taghridi: i won big on super bowl sunday and i sent in all the documents. can you give me an update?

Jason Murphy: Can you please tell me who Cole Delgado is?

Daniel Taghridi: i have no idea sir! the last rep asked me about a katelynn delgado! Did they say they lived at my address??? because I've lived here my whole life so I can't control whoever used my address on their accounts...

Daniel Taghridi: im the only real one with my address, and i sent my driver's license, utility bill, and my DC to you guys to prove it.

Daniel Taghridi: so now what? it just seems like you guys are mad that I won when I signed up to bet for the superbowl??? i don't want to complain to anyone so please tell me what i need to do. i won fairly man

Daniel Taghridi: this has me up all night now for 2 nights because i was so excited to win, and now im being screwed with its very depressing.

Jason Murphy: Your account is related to Cole Delgado's, Katelynn Delgado's, and Cole Anthony's accounts. All of them with chargebacks filed against us upon legitimate deposits. They actually have your same billing address and your same IP address. We will ask you to please contact them and ask them to get in touch with us so we can provide them with directions on how to repay the owned funds.

Jason Murphy: Until then, there is nothing we can do, I apologize for any inconvenence.

Daniel Taghridi: i doubt that is true since i don't know who they are how would they have used my address? that would be a huge coincidence... I have to get sportsbookreview.com involved then, and report this to my friends popular website.

Your chat transcript will be sent to danieltaghridi@yahoo.com at the end of your chat.

Daniel Taghridi: I dont know them or what they owe but you can take it out of my winnings if it is within reason, if that will resolve this. Otherwise I need management, and I need to report this.

Jason Murphy: You're free to do what you believe is proper. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do on this case since those individuals share the same billing address you have in your account and the same IP address, which is proof that they have been on your place. An IP address is like a fingerprint, Daniel. That is evidence we cannot ignore. We do not take chargebacks lightly.

Daniel Taghridi: I have used my home internet, starbucks wifi, and neighbor's signals when I was at friends houses.. This is absurd.

Daniel Taghridi: When did they do this???? That is the biggest coincidence in the world if your saying these people used my billing address. They would of had to have had my card, no one has had my card but me. I can prove I am the only one here besides my mother and step father.

Your chat transcript will be sent to danieltaghridi@yahoo.com at the end of your chat.

Jason Murphy: As per our House Rules, which you read and approved the moment you created an account with us: "Whenever a deposit is stopped/reversed (Sportsbook.com) reserves the right to void all activity in the account and the account holder will forfeit any accounts winnings deriving from the stopped/reversed deposit."

Jason Murphy: Unfortunately there is nothing we can do on this case.

Jason Murphy: Please contact those individuals and ask them to get in touch with us.

Jason Murphy: Until then, unfortunately we there is not much that we can do.

Daniel Taghridi: your lying man, because its a FACT that I can prove I live here. and none of these people you said could possibly have had a card with MY billing address because my mom and step dad are the only ones that have lived here for 18 years... so your saying they did a chargeback with their card no way they used my address thats bs you guys make up stories???

Daniel Taghridi: i saw on the forum examples of chats like this from you guys holding up other payouts...

Daniel Taghridi: i will wait to speak to management tomorrow and pursue this further, you guys asked for my documents, I sent them, and now your ignoring that i proved i lived here, and no other names could possibly have ever had a CC with MY billing address

Jason Murphy: I'm truly sorry for the inconvenience, and I do apologize Daniel, unfortunately there is nothing we can do until those people get in contact with us regarding this issue. Your account will remain closed, your card was already refunded, the money will show in your card within the next 3-10 business days.

Daniel Taghridi: Why are you telling me to get in touch with them? Why don't you contact them!? Why is it my responsibility to contact them????

Jason Murphy: Do you think we haven't tried?

Jason Murphy: Your account is related to theirs.

Daniel Taghridi: Why did your rep just a few hours ago LIE then and say the documents are processing, and a few hours ago on the phone they said in a day or so I should have access again. And now Im supposed to believe someone in the middle of the night like YOU is actually a manager? Do you have the authority to do this?

Jason Murphy: We have tried to get in touch with them without success.

Daniel Taghridi: I told you, I've used public internet signals, why is that my fault? I proved who I am to you.

Jason Murphy: So when we became aware that the address and the IP addresses matched, we had to deemed inactive your account as well.

Jason Murphy: In light to resolve this issue.

Daniel Taghridi: I sent you my drivers license, bank statement, the front and back of the CC and utility bill. Why the hell is it my job to find people who you say used my address????

Daniel Taghridi: The address did not match... if other people signed up with you from starbucks or these neighborhood signals then that is not my fault and I have no control over that

Jason Murphy: I truly apologize, for this issue, we became aware of the relationship between your account and theirs on the 6th at 9:40:07 AM PT.

Daniel Taghridi: Our address has a mailbox key... NOBODY opened up ************ in their names and used our address as the billing

Daniel Taghridi: These people you say did not have my address, no Delgados lived here, and how could they charge their deposit with you if they just made up the address? so you are making up a story, why? Why don't you honor payouts????

Jason Murphy: Daniel, I understand that you are upset but regrettably there is nothing we can do here. I really apologize. You will have to contact them or to wait until they contact us to resolve this issue so we can clear your account. Without that happening, unfortunately our hands are tied, your account and theirs will remain inactive until the owned money is repaid.

Jason Murphy: The address matches and the IP as well. There is nothing we can do. I apologize.

Daniel Taghridi: You said you already refunded me! Why the hell would I try to track down strangers????

Daniel Taghridi: You deleted my winnings and refunded me???? Why would I try to track down these people for you???

Jason Murphy: That's right, we already sent your $1000.00 you deposited back to your card. Those funds will be available to you in 3-10 business days.

Daniel Taghridi: You better believe I'm going to hire someone to take you all out, legally and otherwise - before I did anything else

Jason Murphy: Well, you are the one contacting us and asking how to reopen your account, I answered your inquiry.

Daniel Taghridi: You ask me to find these strangers, you have a better chance of me suing you and tracking you down.

Daniel Taghridi: Reopen my account with nothing in it????

Daniel Taghridi: Is that a joke?????

Daniel Taghridi: You guys owe me $25,000+

Jason Murphy: Reopen your account with the winnings on it.

Daniel Taghridi: But you refunded me, so why would you do that

Jason Murphy: If the owned money is not repaid, there's nothing we can do. I apologize.

Daniel Taghridi: Show me the records of these people and I will track them down

Daniel Taghridi: Where do they live?

Jason Murphy: We will also ask you to send us back the money we sent you back.

Jason Murphy: You tell me.

Jason Murphy: They have the same address and the same IP.

Daniel Taghridi: I told you, I opened my account from home Saturday night. On Sunday morning I was at a friends house for a Superbowl party and I used a public wi fi signal from the neighborhood. I also logged on from a starbucks.

Daniel Taghridi: If you can see my IP then you see there are multiple ones. Show me documents of this, I read enough cases at SportsbookReview.com to know there are hard documents, show me these people's profiles , show me they signed up with my address, you are not being honest man

Daniel Taghridi: How can they use my address to sign up when the CC deposit would have to match for billing???

Daniel Taghridi: And NO other family has lived here

Daniel Taghridi: SO how do people go get ************ with MY billing address

Jason Murphy: That is personal information that we will not provide. Would you like us to give your information to anyone who requested it?

Daniel Taghridi: WHen our mailbox has a key

Daniel Taghridi: Why would you protect people who did that to you??? Your telling me to find these people but you wont give me the info.

Jason Murphy: I gave you their names and I told you they have the same address and the same IP. That's the most we can disclose.

Daniel Taghridi: You cant punish me for using a public internet signal. People sign up from libraries and such, you just screw everyone like this?

Daniel Taghridi: You want me to go find them for you, and then you say youll give me my winnings, yea right the promise sounds so fake so dishonest it goes with your story that other people have used my address.

Jason Murphy: I apologize for the inconvenience, Daniel. Unfortunately this conversation is going in circles. I'm sincerely sorry for this issue, but this is actually pretty simple. You have these options: a) you can try to contact those people to get them repay the money owned or b) if that does not happen unfortunately your account will remain closed, no winning will be honored, however your card was already refunded. Besides that, regrettably there is nothing we can do, and I do apologize, but that is final.

Daniel Taghridi: No one has used my address no one possibly could, but maybe others have used one of the ip addresses I used because besides my home, i used public signals when I was out with my laptop

Jason Murphy: They did.

Jason Murphy: I apologize.

Jason Murphy: Plus your IP.

Jason Murphy: There is nothing we can do, I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Daniel Taghridi: How much do they owe??????

Jason Murphy: $800.00.

Daniel Taghridi: Then just take it out of my winnings, I don't care! This was a lifechanging amount for me and I need it

Jason Murphy: The winnings cannot and will not be taken into consideration for this matter. That I basically our money. You won it, but you also agreed to our terms and conditions, which state: "Whenever a deposit is stopped/reversed (Sportsbook.com) reserves the right to void all activity in the account and the account holder will forfeit any accounts winnings deriving from the stopped/reversed deposit."

Daniel Taghridi: so they owe $800 total and you want me to find them and have them pay this and then your going to give me access to my account and the winnings in it??? confirm how much is in my account please, is it 25,000 or 30,000... one pick pushed so I don't know what you calculated.

Daniel Taghridi: MY deposit did NOT get stopped or reversed. What are you talking about!???? I had the $1,000 funds and I paid it and deposited and bet and won. What are you citing this rule for, I did not reverse or stop any payment, the charge was successfulm so why would my winnings be voided

Jason Murphy: Their deposit did, and your account is related to their accounts. It is the same, the same applies. I apologize for the inconvenience, there is nothing we can do.

Daniel Taghridi: please tell me whats in my account, what is my balance on hold in my account

Jason Murphy: Your current balance is $26,488.99. Which will be forfeit if this issue is not resolved. I really apologize for the inconvenience.

Daniel Taghridi: when did they do this? when did they sign up and do this crap with you

Jason Murphy: In 2009.

Daniel Taghridi: you have been helpful with information so I appreciate that, so far no rep has told me anything except the same address...

Daniel Taghridi: now you say same IP address which I can believe because after I signed up with you at my home, I did use public internet signals from the neighborhood when I was out for super bowl parties....

Daniel Taghridi: So their billing address was the same address as mine???? how is that possible, how could they have signed up for cards with my billing address

Daniel Taghridi: I looked up Cole Delgado on facebook. He is in Mission Viejo too...

Daniel Taghridi: This guy is like 26 years old

Daniel Taghridi: I'm 18, got nothing to do with this piece of shit...

Daniel Taghridi: I can't find a Katelynn Delgado

Daniel Taghridi: do you want this guys facebook link? I found a Cole Delgado. you can contact him. Isn't that good enough for you? How can I force this guy to pay his debt if he signed up with you and didnt pay you? How should that matter for me to get my winnings??????

Jason Murphy: Daniel, a facebook link is something we cannot take seriously. I do apologize, regrettably there is nothing we can do on this case besides having them to contact us and repay the money.

Daniel Taghridi: I'll contact him, hell I'll pay the $800 you say he owes for not paying you. I think this is all really strange but Ill pay you the $800 if that is going to resolve this... I see the guys page, he is obviously around here, why aren't you guys being reasonable???? I've shown you all my proof who I am so you know I'm Daniel...

Daniel Taghridi: Can I pay you the $800???? How? Where?

Daniel Taghridi: What does it matter who pays you?? You say they owe you $800, I'll message him but why would he listen to me? He's obviously a piece of shit, let me pay the $800 and that should resolve this if you guys want that money then I'll friggn pay it for them

Jason Murphy: The most I can do is to send a request for the proper department to review your account to see if there is anything that can be done on this case, and to see if we can accept you to repay those funds.

Jason Murphy: You should get an answer within the next 24 hours or less, by email, Daniel.

Daniel Taghridi: If this is really about $800 then you would let me pay, but you obviously don't want to pay me the $26,000 I have in my balance. I won it fair and square, and just because there is someone who used the same public signal as me is not fair, you must have a bunch of people that sign up from libraries and starbucks, you can't punish them all.... Did this guy prove himself like I did??? I've sent you all my documents, my id and card and everything, did he??? I have nothing to do with this guy

Jason Murphy: Would there be anything else I could help you with?

Daniel Taghridi: I just want to be able to bet my winnings, I don't even want to withdraw it right now. I just want to bet it ok??? I had no intention of withdrawing for awhile so please tell the department all this, thank you....

Daniel Taghridi: tell them please just work something out with me??? just let me pay it or something..

Daniel Taghridi: i don't want to complain to sportsbookreview or get all crazy with reports and hate you guys, I signed up in good faith for the super bowl and i got lucky and won, and now you guys are being unreasonable if your telling me its my job to find this guy and make him pay, please just let me pay the guys debt and let me have my account and bet my winnings.

Daniel Taghridi: ill wait for them to decide before i do anything... ill check my email all day.

Daniel Taghridi: thanks

I signed up with $1000 and with a few $100 did a 3 game soccer parlay and it hit. I was feeling really good from that, and I was all hyped up from Super Bowl Sunday, and I need college funds man, so I went big and I was pretty confident with half my picks being big money lines... I'll paste my parlays .... And attached is my Driver's License, DC, and bank statement so you guys see I'm trying to show who I am. I spray painted out enough so the info couldn't be compromised.

Here are the parlays I did that equal $26,000 and change. Are they really so crazy???? I had 2,000+ from my $1,000 deposit, got a $100 bonus, and had won a 3 team soccer parlay when I submitted these for Super Bowl Sunday. We had a friends party to root on all the games starting with 9am NCAA on tv, and then the celtics abc, and penguins/capitals on nbc.... leading up to the Superbowl... I owe 2 friends a share of the money, it wasn't even my full $1000, only like $600 of it is MINE......We didn't even expect to win them all, as you can see, there is a core of 2-4 picks that we needed or all the parlays lost, but we banked on that core (especially the Packers), and the rest were a mix of different teams. We just expected a few of the parlays to win, but they all won.....We got together for super bowl day and did these teams to root on, and the packers completed it, and then we log in and it says disabled. There is no history of chargebacks, they are saying 3 random accounts from 2009 have $800 in debts that are linked to me by some public unsecured signal from the neighborhood I used from the friends house on superbowl. I signed up from my home which is a private secured signal... I've used 3-4 signals to login sportsbook.com , my friends houses and such, and now just because one of them was used on some random account 2 years ago with them, they are holding my $26,000 hostage.... The part about my billing address being the same is pure genius on their part, its a complete lie because I can't accept that 000.000001% coincidence that someone used my billing address 2 years ago. I challenged SportsBook.com to show me the records of those 3 accounts since they wanted me to track down the people on them, but they wouldn't show me anything and just kept saying the billing address is the same. If SBR can call their bluff they will be called out for the liars they are being on that, and for the ip address, yea i can see one of the ip addresses i logged in from being the same, but not the one I signed up with them from, just one from the neighborhood unsecured signals or the starbucks signal I have no clue, they won't tell me anything, or show me hard documents just what that rep said which i posted on this thread already

Like I said I've never done a chargeback in my life and this is the first card I have ever had. My credit report is completely clean and blank.

Daniel....STOP POSTING!! you don't need to defend yourself, you are absolutely digging your own grave here. When people read posts like yours above, they think to themselves: "yeah, you had to pay out all the people in your chargeback scheme." I know you don't mean for it to be taken that way , but this is a perfect example of why you absolutely must stop posting or risk losing all sympathy and actually building the case against yourself , which would be a sad irony .
STOP POSTING.

Got another email from Sportsbook.com. Don't know if this is an old response from one of my queued emails to a bunch of their addresses I rounded up or what, but the news is horrible. Don't know what kind of authority this Annie has.. Must predate SBR's involvement and not the final word. I will hold off on the $800 now...But this is unreal, Sportsbook.com has now gone from saying I'll have my account reopened if I send my documents to show my identity and write a note saying I don't know who this person and that person are and have no knowledge of those accounts to saying I need to pay $800 to cover the debts in an account from 2009 and then my account will be restored, to finally YOUR BANNED. Their inconsistency speaks for itself.

Dear Daniel,
We would like to inform you that we will not be collecting any of the owed funds from neither your account nor the past problematic accounts linked to you. That is to say that we have decided to Ban all accounts linked to this case for good and none will be re-open.
We wanted to confirm that the deposit made for $1000.00 in your account CID 653480846. Has been refunded to your card xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and we are voiding all activity in this account.
Please accept our most sincere apologies for any inconvenience our decision and the results of our review may cause.

Sincerely,
Annie D

Okay as the OP requested, I will post what I found in just a brief investigation. When the OP first started posting, I felt a bit of compassion for him as I actually found this site because I wanted to post about a bad experience I had with SB.com. However, as I read his posts, I began to recognize things he was saying that were similar to a past criminal case that was in the media several years ago. I am also in SoCal. When he posted the name Cole Delgado, and his own address in SoCal I was pretty certain I knew who he was, especially when he mentioned that he went into the parlay bets with his buddies, and they split the winnings. Here's the story:

In 2004, a guy named Cole Bartiromo was arrested for running an illegal boomaking operation in Mission Viejo, CA with his buddies, all of whom were in High School. He was also charged with various stockmarket fraud schemes. He was recently released from federal prison. I found it quite coincidental that this group of HS guys lived in the same neighborhood as the OP. I also found it a coincidence that the OP's payout was being withheld due to a chargeback involving a Cole Delgado.

The OP posted a link his Facebook page. Cole Bartiromo is on his friends list. By the way the OP did not message me(big surprise). I think he was using the forum to pressure SB.com to pay him. I will look in to a couple more things and post one more time. Of course, this could all just be a coincidence. It looks like SB.com got this one right.

If there are still any doubters, see the link below to the thread for the dispute over the $99,600. The actual amount was $99,548.78. The betting tickets are in the thread. The OP is dollarschollar. It was two summers ago. "Daniel" says he won $99,600 2 summers ago on BetUs. Is the any doubt who dollarshcollar is? Really?

http://forum.sbrforum.com/sportsbook...hat-going.html

What is amusing is at the time Bartiromo was on parole living in a half-way house and prohibited from accessing the internet. He was sent back to finish his sentence for parole violation when he was found to have a cell phone in his possession. He argued in court and had a college professor write a letter stating the courts actions were unreasonable because he needed the phone, and access to the internet to keep up with his studies.

He should shutup and hope the court does not get this information.


Post from cole's friends facebook

A post from one of his friends to me
hey just so u know he made 97,500 dollars last month
at least 10 grand of it was thanks to ur message board which got him over 7500 new views on his website, he also hit a 12/12 parlay which i was apart of, just received my 11,255 today in the mail

.AOLWebSuite .AOLPicturesFullSizeLink { height: 1px; width: 1px; overflow: hidden; }.AOLWebSuite a { color: blue; text-decoration: underline; cursor: pointer; }.AOLWebSuite a.hsSig { cursor: default; }

Beat the #1 ranked tennis player at university of southern indiana tonight. Won 3-6 7-5 and won tie breaker 10-8

The punk millionaire 20 year old smashes his racket and starts making excuses on why he lost. He lost because power and strength rules

I was simply the better in shape player at 350 pounds. Power , strength, skill, heart, desire, determination and smarts can overcome

anything. People say why don't you lose weight and i would be so much better. I'm only a half step slower then i was at 195 and

I aleady do 100 miles of cardio a week on the bike and treadmill and most of the time eat normally. You can say its a fluke

Im 350 and a fluke i can beat about every amateur tennis player in the world

1. Aaron Rodgers: a bad o line, no running back, injured wr's and te's and he still gets the job done. Look for him to do even better

next season with J finley and and improved o line next season.

2. P manning: yes manning, a healthy addai, improved line, collie back along with garcon , wayne, dallas clark and tamme. Manning

should continue to put up great numbers with less interceptions in 2011

3. Philip rivers: look what he did this season with all the bums wr's he had. He will continue to air it out and put up

huge numbers while 5 or 6 other qb's get drafted ahead of him

4.. Tom Brady: best blocking in football. Has 2 great tight ends to throw too that are rookies that should continue to improve.

the Afc east is getting better and they do not play conservative. He might not match 2010 but it should be close.

5. Drew Brees: Nuff said, alot of weapons and a great system : Don't overpay for him in your draft. I would always go rb or wr over a qb early in a draft

6. Michael Vick: His rushing yardage and rushing td's improve his rank at qb. Injury threat so make sure to get a good backup. Always look

to see who your backup qb would be playing during your starting qb's bye week.

7. Eli Manning: consistent and a healthy nicks and steve smith alon with mario manningham makes the giants a threat to put

up alot of points every week.

8. Tony Romo: along as he doesn't get hurt, he will put up big numbers. Make sure to draft his backup in the last round and stash him

on your bench. He has alot of weapons and his coach is offensive oriented.

9. Big Ben Roethilisberger. Alot of weapons, great system, Very underrated passer . Mike wallace is no longer a sleeper

and is a studd.

10. Carson Palmer: bad defensive means alot of points for palmer. Will ocho or T. O. be back. Doesnt matter, he might

even do better without them. He will have some interceptions but this is about fantasy football. Not winning games.

11.  Jay Cutler: great arm, look for an improved O line. Play in a division that puts up alot of points. He did well this year

in the fantasy ranks . Look for 3 to 6 more td for cutler in 2011

12. Matt Cassell: D bowe, who is there 2nd wr. Most don't even know but he mixes it up well and the team airs it out. He will

have a new offensive coordinator but nothing about the system will change.

13.  Joe Flacco: run 1st offensive but alot of weapons and a great pick , especially if you wait . You can get a great rb, rb, wr wr combo before

you would need to take Flacco which makes it worth it.

14. Mathew stafford: if he is healthy he will put up huge numbers. Make sure to draft his backup. If healthy he will actually put up top 5 numbers.

15. Matt ryan: run 1st d but consisently puts up great numbers and is still getting better.

16. Matt schaub: you get my point. Qb is deep. Why take Manning or brees when you can get schaub later. alot of weapons and on a team with

a bad defense so they will air it out as well as passing to studd RB Arion Foster

17. Kevin Kolb: if kolb is traded to sf, tenn or carolina. Look for him to air it out and put up some impressive numbers. Good backup

pick

18. Sam bradford: Alot of young wr's and the team will continue to improve. Might have a few bad games but a very impressive

rookie season.

19. Denver starting wr: whoever it is, tebow, orton, they will put up big numbers with that awful defense and a good variety of wrs

20. mark sanchez: alot of weapons. Good team and is still learning. I wouldn't start him week in and week out, but a good backup qb for your

fantasy team.

Recommendations

Wait on a qb. There are plenty to go around.

There is great value on waiting for a qb like big ben, cassell, stafford and getting a backup like the starting denver qb,

mark sanchez or c palmer.

Teams that drafted Romo, favre, mcnabb this season all probaly wish they waited later for a qb. Just look at vick

who wasn't even drafted. QBs get hurt all the time and if necessary you can find a qb to start on the waiver wire

each week and start the one with the best matchup.

I just need 28 total points from drew brees, mccoy and brent celek. If brees can throw for 250 and 2 td I think i can do it.

I will have enough funds to become an sbr pro. But with all my luck, we know the madden curse kicks in tommorrow night and

he breaks his leg

Everyone reading this will know I"m a born loser after tommorrow nite. Will Brees really not throw a td tommorrow because of me??

WTF did i do wrong to deserve another bad beat. 6 points for a passing td.. 300 and 2 td will be 24 points. Never know about celek though,

All I need is a td or a few yards from mccoy. Im not greedy.

Since both my grandparents have died this year, christmas was small this year, but always good. It will never be the same again. I hope everyone reads this had a merry christmas and will have a happy new year

Monday nite update:

Looks like i will not be an sbr pro. Im devestated and yes the team i owe ten grand too is going to end up beating me i guess. I doubt mccoy can get 2 td when they don't even need him to win. Minnesota is terrible and they have the playoffs locked. Brees doesn't even have 9 fantasy points.
I'm completely devestated. This may be the worst Ive ever felt ever. Only thing that beats the way i feel would be my mom, sister or myself dying.

Just when i thought i hit rock bottom A 350 pound man almost drowns in the fucking bathtub

How in the fuck does someone drown in the bathtub, hell i hardly even fit in if i a lie down in it.

I dozed off someone and have no idea how i did that since i have insomnia and up at almost 4 am.

I was soaking in epsom salt and hot water , first time ive done this in years.

Next thing i know Im waking up under water , no idea if im drowning or wtf is going on. I wonder if i even knew i was under water.

My feet and legs were up in the air and against the wall so i was slid down . I was trying to get up and i couldn't

WTF.  I was slipping and sliding and i eventually got up somehow and i started breathing hard as if i almos drowned. I assume

i almost did.

Did i wake up under water? Did drowning make me wake up? Maybe someone can help me out on that answer. Im

stunned. Could you imagine someone finding me naked and dead in the bathtub?  It  was not a fun experience, everything

about it sucked ass.

More later, crips
