The Reinstate Argentino Thread

[redietz]

The only one of Argentino's many fascinating statements I wish to correct is the one where he says that I am calling him every week to sell him something. That's a really weird blatant lie.

I have never done phone solicitation in my life. Never. Not once. Not when I started at 21. Not in the 40 years since. And I certainly never called Argentino.

So whatever the truth value of Argentino's other statements, I have to call him out as baldly lying for some blessed reason about that one. Maybe it's an attempt to procure my phone number to check against whatever number's calling him. I have no idea what the rationale is, but it's an odd thing to throw out there in his first post because it almost assuredly requires me to respond.

If anyone has any theories as to why he would claim this, now's the time to let me know.

Would you mind quoting Rob's post where he allegedly says you call him? I can't seem to find it and since this is so crucial we should all see it.

The only reference to contact I saw was when Rob posted this:

"...so he can try and sell them his picks like he does me EVERY SINGLE WEEK,..."

There is no reference to a phone call or phone calls. Redietz might you use emails? Or ads sent to Rob through various websites?

Here is the full reference written by Rob and again I see nothing about phone calls:

" Several posters here have already done a nice job exposing his silly intentions, his non-stop self-advertisement and his weasel-wording people into getting in touch with him so he can try and sell them his picks like he does me EVERY SINGLE WEEK, his refusals to post anything he claims about himself, and they've taken him to extreme task for becoming the troll that he now is known for being. Nuff said. "

In the GF exchange between us over on www.gamblingforums.com, Argentino mentions that I am texting him. I am not. It made me feel like there is a real mental issue with Argentino.

I have not emailed anyone any ads. I don't do bulk email ads, or individual email ads. I did not advertise "through various websites." I did not advertise at all this past season. I haven't advertised at all in roughly a decade.

What is really bizarre is that Argentino says I am trying to sell him picks "EVERY SINGLE WEEK." That is really, really strange for reasons that are obvious to anyone who knows me.

It's pretty weird for someone who gets reinstated to immediately lie about something like this.

It's even stranger when Argentino doesn't reply, but Mr. Mendelson is first at bat. Since Mr. Mendelson was, by his own admission, in touch with Argentino during the last 24 hours, I would think he was aware of the GF exchange and the texting comments.

Argentino comes back, and in his first post lies about something like this. What a credible dude. And as hot as Argentino was to post when he returned, when I call him out on this lie, there is no response from him. Just from Mr. Mendelson. Obviously, if Argentino had ads or emails from me soliciting him, they would have been posted already. Very strange. Why lie when you're going to be called on it? Maybe something is really wrong with Argentino. Or it's tough to deviate from SOP.
