The major differences to when Lou made his tips is that they were accompanied by interesting articles. You read them each week to see if he would make one his dares. And he didn't always tip the least fancied team. Then, in the early 1980s, didn't he go head to head with Tinhead the computer? I like reading the Herald-Sun, but I hope they don't think their current Kiss of Death is a way of paying homage to Lou. Apparently The Age used to do something similar with a small dog "submitting" tips.
