We were sitting at a bar one night and my friend was trying to think of names for a band they had recently formed. We wrote like 200 names on napkins and my favorite was "The Green Doberman Experience". They didn't pick it but later on he said that Green Doberman was a cool name, but what the hell did it mean? I said, "Exactly, you want to put it up on the marquee and have people go what the hell is that, so they'll be curious". It's the same reason Pearl Jam changed their name from Mookie Blaylock and why Led Zeppelin and Def Leppard deliberately mispelled them.
Well, the name stuck and I named my business Green Doberman. Nobody would know what the hell it meant, but it always stuck in their head. Most people think Green is my last name, but that is not the case. Green is because I'm Irish, and Doberman was just a random dog, because a friend would always say "What's up Dog?"
There are a few hidden meanings behind it as well, but I'll keep them to myself.

Many years ago during much better days in the sportsbetting world(when their still was a real betting market), an NYC BM gave the nickname to our (then) office for the two-year run we put on and thru him, saying, "you must have a horseshoe up your @sses", then reduced to just "Shoe"..it was actually just 17 hr workdays coupled with a bankroll and boatloads of smart-marks falling off the schedule/page..
The Horseshoe, when in LV was my favorite sportsbook, as much for their Dr.Brown sodas and Kosher dogs, as for their betting lines/limits(and I mean hotdogs, not Kosher Boy baseball dogs)..this however contingent upon when Nick wasn't busy freezing you out, so one of the big boys could get the number a half-minute later on the phone(Mvbski, I know, I know, blame it on Binion)..
Had a friend from Ohio, that never would shut-up about OSU and that ugly damn Horseshoe..
Horseshoe Bay-Bermuda..
Resided in Horseshoe Bay-Texas for a short while..
Finally, after years, I took the horseshoe outta my ass(I must've been tired of walking with mucho mojo, the limp of an uber-fat wallet in my left back-pocket and a horseshoe up my rectum ruining my posture?), proceeded to shove it up an ex-girlfriend's @ss, she married very well two years after I set her free of a gambler's neglect, and now resides on you guessed it..a horseshoe named Horseshoe.
I'm glad she's living a happy and normal life, but I want the horseshoe back..cleaned that is!

A friend of mine lost EVERYTHING and almost his family following Jim Feist. Well I lend him, well you can say I gave him 10,000$ to cover Feist's loss'. I would NEVER play any of these morons plays. Especially there Bonus Plays. I've known players who follow certain cappers. They are almost all in the red. So by bailing my buddy out and saving his marriage I can honestly say that JimFeistSux,lol! And my buddy plays moderately now not following any capper at all and is doing fairly well!
