Oak grove handicapper. Pls get a fckin haircut. On tv representing a race track

When you watch a thoroughbred racing telecast, all the guys are in suits, clean-shaven nice haircut you look at some of these harness telecast these people look like circus clowns. They look like circus Carneys.

I miss the guy I referred to as the Missing Link from the Showplace of racing. He was a cross between, the wrestler the Missing Link and dressed like Tommy Boy where the tie would end about 4 inches above the belly button.

We are harness racing where on any given night and on Friday's at the biggest track of them all we allow Amateur betting races. What does that say to someone new who pops in ? I would say its okay, but I don't amateurs in thoroughbred races. Nor do I see it in the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, MLS, MMA..... Hell on ESPN two sundays ago they were airing the rock skipping championships. Doubt they pulled amateurs out of the crowd.

To most people if they have ever heard of harness racing --- they think were a joke --- well hell --- we present ourselves as a joke. The only headlines we garnered in a national publication last year -- was that dozens were sent to jail.

I haven't seen him yet, but sounds like an improvement off Yours, Thorny's, EV1s suggestions and my requesting he watch The Pope of Greenwich Village (Mickey Roarke, 1984).

A work in progress, well Done to All Us Dr. Frankensteins, our monster race broadcasting human is almost complete!

My job is done on this thread

Circus Carneys?   Oh you mean Shades  ... agreed

The thoroughbred people get paid and can afford a suit.  Harness talent gets minimum wage. 

Pretty sure SHADES came from the thoroughbred side

It's insulting and unkind, I wouldn't recommend as being necessary for any particular personal preference, but if you say you're going to do it then DO IT, and report back, talk the talk walk the walk bro!
