He has nothing to defend, was not knocking him or ANY other reputable proxy out there, or was not my intention anyways.


Have no problem with any reputable proxy receiving any compensation they can receive, and certainly not Sharky, someone I know personally and friends with.

In fact, Sharky helped me last year with signups and also suggested a few tips on being a proxy.....when it comes to the LVH contest, Sharky knows much more than me on many facets of the contest.

As far as banking, I presume you mean the IRS situation.......well recreational entrants need or should be aware that 1099-Misc winnings cannot be offset by gambling losses.

Last years Winner was from Chicago and he used Footballcontestproxy.com
He's the same guy that won the Cantor a couple years back

It was the year before I think SHE was a local
completely forgot that guy from chicago, and i was following him on twitter at the time too

I have used both Sharky and FH. both are great. In fact, last year, i had 2 entries, one with Sharky and one with FH.

on top of that, on my entry with FH, sharky's friend signed up as a backup proxy since there is room for 2 proxies.



sharky99 has been doing it for much longer so he probably knows more about the ins and outs of everything.

FH would always send a picture confirmation of each ticket entry. Good second check on his part

I just can't bring myself to pay a %. Your the one doing all the hours of handicapping. All the guys is doing is turning in a card similar as FISHHEAD put it in post #87 of this thread "similar to a
parlay card" This guy that won last season payed over $10,000.00 in fees. Just because he won and has to makeup the difference for the guys that didn't cash. That is absolutely ridiculous.
If you charge say $300 and you get 300 proxies that's $9000.00. Just for turning in Parlay cards. Sign me up!

One zero short, that would be 90,000.00 Who needs a job.

Maybe it is easy maybe it is not....but we are talking 17 weeks. All the years sharky was doing it he could never go visit his family for the holidays....now with Thursday games u sometimes have to turn in cards early in the week...esp thanksgiving week.

imagine having to stay home each Friday night for 4 months so that u can meet the Saturday deadline.

Doesn't sound fun to me...if I had 17 proxies then I maje 200-250 a week....I guess that sounds good if everyone is responsible and sends stuff on time.

and funny how everyone argues about the %. No one that won complains about it....because they probably realize how little it is or we dont realize how impossible it is to cash. ..bas is the only one I know who cashed and he thinks the % is deserved

Well like I said before, if I Cash.. I'm going to Tip the guy anyway. Because either way... Easy or Hard to do. I can NOT do it myself, living 2500 miles away.

BTW, NFLTrends( did it myself ) Cashed last year, and I believe 3pointdog cashed before too. Ace-Ace also cashed I think Twice. There has been a few over the years that are here at The RX

There have been quite a few actually.

When referencing "here at the RX"......posters past and present.


Know more than a couple handfuls(10) personally that have cashed and have posted here in the past, or still do.


TheRX has been home to lots of Vegas residents over the years.

However, as you well know, a proxy can have a reserve proxy in place to submit picks.

I'm debating that I may do this if I can find a very, very, reliable backup proxy ........if I can, perhaps I will take on the responsibility of doing this for a few again this year at the $200 fee and no commission requirement........however, the responsibility to having picks entered correctly rests on me, so want to make sure the backup proxy is 110% someone those entering can trust.

Fwiw I dont care how little you trust a proxy (as some have implied with gtc08), but having them as a backup is better than no backup
