H Lederer 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Daniel, I have tried and unsuccessfully to get in touch with you with regards to the lawsuit. Someone suggested to get in touch with you via this forum as you are supposed to be a quite frequent browser. I and a number of the other players believe this issue has got completely out of hand. I can already see a number of threads about the issue in hand. You are an ambassador to this game with a very influential voice which is also quite vocal. This is why i feel we need to deal with this feud between us. Greg, told me about his comments and i believe he has apologised. I do hope this does not spill onto the tables as no one wants that. As with regards to the lawsuit, this is about the control of our own name and likeness. You could find yourself endorsing products you don’t believe in. I should be able to make that decision. I don’t want the WPT deciding for me. A lot of players have contracts with other companies that already give the companies exclusive rights to their names, images, and intellectual property rights. As you may or may not know Chris Ferguson has a contract with Activision to exclusively appear in the “World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions” video game. The WPT breaches this contract. To be honest you are causing a bit of a problem with regards to the lawsuit. I know you believe we are not acting in the best interest of the players but that is where you are wrong. However, that is not something to discuss on a public forum. Perhaps we could meet? I am doing some PR work at Rio's tomorrow, maybe then. I do not have a personal number for you so i will check back here in an hour to see if you replied. If not i will try a bit harder to get a contact number. Yours, Howard Link to post Share on other sites

AcesUp46 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 It's definitely not fake. Link to post Share on other sites
FourFlusher 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 This is starting to crawl in my craw: The WPT is wrong because I signed two exclusive contracts, one with the WPT, and one with Activision.I don't get it. Link to post Share on other sites
Switchblade 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Ya this doesn't look real at all but could be wrong.What's with all of that stuff happening anyhow? Link to post Share on other sites
M101A1-105 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Somebody bet there would be 40 threads about this a couple days ago. There's been like 400. Unreal.... like Howard wouldn't have a way to contact DN. Yea, right. -1 for the flunky Link to post Share on other sites
moneymanbc 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I believe it is him as I heard him say these same things about the lawsuit on The Circuit. Link to post Share on other sites
Laffer 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 definitely fake.all Howard would have to do is get Daniel's cell number from his sister. Link to post Share on other sites
Balloon guy 158 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 definitely fake.all Howard would have to do is get Daniel's cell number from his sister.Hurt myself laughing at this one :icon_clap:But I think it's real, and Howard is a class act so I expect him to make peace with DN, not to the point of changing minds, but maybe so the bitterness cools down.This isn't as big a deal as either side is making it.And for you boneheads..the Professor title isn't a real degree, it's a nickname given to him by Vince Van Patton and Mike Sexton.

SBriand 4 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I believe it is him as I heard him say these same things about the lawsuit on The Circuit.Ya, cause noone else could have heard that, made this account, and posted it. Link to post Share on other sites

timwakefield 68 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 That alone tells that this is a fake.......but I love you, will you have my babies?Just for the record, I believe that 'apologise' with an 's' is an acceptable British spelling of the word. Link to post Share on other sites

missIdaho 1 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Just a guess...wouldn't a joke account have been a little more harsh?All I see is "lets talk".all that means is the poster is trying to make it sound more legitif anyone honestly thinks he would approach Daniel here in the forum to talk has lost their minds. if he could honestly find no other way to contact Daniel he could just send him an email.

silkyjonson 1 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 its clearly Harry Lederer the B level softcore porn star. Link to post Share on other sites
herokid7 0 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 seems real to me. I could be wrong, but I doubt a joker would tell Daniel a place to meet him. DN could easily verify if Lederer was really going to be there or not. But, again, I very well could be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites
Balloon guy 158 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I know how to find out if this is the real HowardSomeone bet him $9,000 that he won't eat a hamburger. If he takes it than he's a fake. Howard won't eat meat for less than $10K Link to post Share on other sites
