$$$ Does Jim Cramer still think Lenny Dykstra is “one of the great ones in this business“? Possibly not, considering he just fired him. At a time when he could really use the money.

Keith Hernandez never would have defaulted on his mortgage.
I never bothered to look into this, but how is it that Dykstra bolstered his claim that he was 92-0 on his option picks?
WHERE IS THE OBMAMA PORTFOLIO UPDATE??? Have the CONservatives taken over this site?
Comment removed by moderator.
Typical, eh?
In retrospect, Dykstra giving out stock tips should have been a clear sign of a stock market top!
@3&4
High school rules apply here at Dealbreaker:
The Obama Portfolio thing is only funny/cool/interesting when brought up by one of the popular kids.
And TGFD remembers a time last year when I was chastized for “plugging-up DB’s bandwidth” with trash.
Well, at least I didn’t repeat myself.

@4 – take your $hit back to the yahoo board, a$$clown.
Guest@#4…
TGFD suggests that you take a look at DB’s “Job of the Week” posting above.
One of the more important listed job requirements should be of particular interest to you and well within your area of expertise:
“• Superior communication skills.”

What did @4 say that was so bad?
lobsterclops
@11 he was talking about wagons and deadliest catch. i didn’t understand because i’m a quant.
#4 really crossed the line. Thank god that comment was deleted.
I’m feeling ya #7, I’m feeling ya.
@12
Any updates on episode 3?
Faber, Boorstein and the other guy sooooo much better than the usual sh*tshow featuring Kneale, Kudlow, Douche, Francis (godawful!) etc. I actually paid attention to what they were saying for all of 5 min.
Why not put them on everyday?
I heard the FBI is looking for #4 after all hell broke loose here at DB.
Can anyone confirm?
what did 4 post?
@17 – @4 was a bona fide a$$clown, on second thought, he/she was a mix breed, part a$$clown, part a$$hat, with a little bit of d-bag mixed in…(it was worse than a quad-post regarding the obama portfolio update)
@17- It was bad; best we don’t talk about it Fight Club.
@2 – He would buy 10 in-the-money calls 1 year out. If the position moved in his favor $1, he’d sell. If it moved against him, he’d buy 10 more. If he had a lot, he’d start doubling down.
He didn’t count a trade as a loser until he actually sold it. He had one loser Amdocs, which was -$206,000. He had a lot of winners, which was +250,000. He also had a lot of losers on his books, but which hadn’t had option expiration.
He was supposedly claiming a win when a trade just touched his price, not withstanding how he would have hundreds – thousands of an illiquid call.
@17
It was obviously an inside job. Cluz sure does know a lot about this… just say’n.

Hey Bess, any truth to the rumor you’ve been cast in “Dealbreaker”?
What happened to # 4? Missing in action.
Perhaps, a new victim from Craigslist !

Did # 4 write from Guantanamo Bay?
Guantanamo Bay is apparently coming to a Montana near you?
That Craigslist guy is the quintessential poster child for “things may not be what they appear to be”.

First Danny Boy goes MIA with no explanation from Dealbreaker. Then Mayo, ShamWow, First… the list goes on and on. Latest casualty is guest #4. Common denominator; Dealbreaker. Craigslist guy is a rookie next to these Black Widows. Next to these Black Widows.
What did you do with guest #4 and Danny Boy Dealbreaker? Tell us!
You’re on your own guest, I can only do so much. Save yourself.
Whatever happened to anal_yst, girl, and ham? only the guy from delaware still around from the old comments crew.
sanchez to the jets
i used to have class with him, he’s chill. maualuga, much more of a douche. but linebackers can pull it off.
I hear SPODE pumped VIK full of lead while Ganal_yst looked on.
@32- really? ham commented at least 3 time yesterday, analyst multiple times a day (including yesterday), plus investorcluzo etc.

This guy?: “Swine Flu Pandemic Would Cost Trillions

http://tinyurl.com/c45bdu “About this Swine Flu Thing” excellent thread with a lot of good information
@43- Yeah that’s him. He died.
RIP John.
I heard Carney died in a plane crash; body parts everywhere. It was a big clusterfuck trying to figure what belonged to who. John’s head ended up on a blonde woman with a beautiful pussy. Blonde landing strip.
How will this swine flu thingy affect my positions on the open Monday?

Mexican swine flu confirmed in Queens. Market gap up 200 points?
@49 You bet! Any news is good news now.
go porcine swine! markets to zero!
Dealbreaker deleted #4 because he is suffering from swine flu and that’s very contagious.
@52- Word in the blog world is Danny Boy was the outbreak monkey and DB has been trying to cover it up ever since. Now the pieces are coming together. You’re playing with fire when you try to hide something from the CDC. Come clean DB and stop hiding behind an IP address. We know you have girl locked up with Mr. Mustard and his sledge hammer in the library. We know about Gitmo and we know about DirtyNaughtyPanties.com. We know! We know! You’ve crossed the line this time and guest is not going to take it.

Godspeed Danny Boy. And #4, you’re in our prayers for we shall find you.

Still here bud, where’ve you been?
Also, Harrison was useless (at best), and Carney has some good stuff (sometimes) @ Clusterfuck, besides that, Richards, Bess, EP holding down the fort
Is it true that you can catch swine flu from having unprotected sex with a great big fat person?
On so many programs today they said that all the bank guys went to the NY Fed. How come CNBC’s Rebecca missed them? Is there a back door that everyone else knew about but Big Mack? (sorry couldn’t resist)
#55, if you can do it without touching her and wearing a mask, go ahead. But, make sure to wash your hands after.
Ha, another ceo just quit UBS, go UBS!
