Day 238, Ford must resign.

He's got one more headache coming soon....

Oh no, what am I going to do. Will you reconsider? Please?

Where's the love around here? 

I forgot to mention wasn't it just a few weeks ago Meadowlands had trouble breaking 1.5 million? Didn't you all say the lag was the reason for this last year? Then they tried it and handles tanked? Now you have one night they sped up the races because of an impending snowstorm and you say it was because they dropped the lag! Bunch of fucking idiots, at least choose a side and stick to it. Or, accept reality. Nobody under 40 is betting and a loyal customer. The yearly loss is hanging just under 10% each year. For every older degenerate bettor there is nobody taking their place. So yes, let's see in 6 months. You would hope eventually the bleeding stops. And most are too blind to accept that when you lose 200 million, then gain back 50 it's NOT A GAIN! You still lost 150 mil dipshits. Maybe beg for more casinos!!! Like Yonkers! Oh wait...forgot. BTW 84% of purses in NYS are subsidized by VLTs. 

It means you can twist anything benefit an argument.  The actual money bet per race day is up $50k per card but down total handle to date due to all the cancellations so far.  Although I think the total per card will be down again this year, that's not the case right now.  Showing that SCM is only talking about data to make his point.  Too early to tell what will come of harness betting this year, but so far it is up on a per card basis.   

Last year this time people blamed Freehold for being closed and a loss of those dates. The trend is constant over  three years, you're willing to stand put? Over 230 million less last two years. 119 million less in 2025 compared to 2024 alone. Feel free to do nothing which is exactly what has been done by the industry. Other than begging for more welfare. One idiot asked if Gural will be raising purses because of the lost dates. HE LOSES MONEY every time he turns on the lights. Hey, maybe Monmouth will close and you can try to steal that subsidy too! So go ahead and try to convince yourselves that it's me and my agenda. The numbers don't lie, AND your "industry" is evaporating. Tracks are closing each year, now Hawthorne can't pay their purses. Are you fucking kidding me? Yeah, thriving. Show me the last time handles have increased across the board and purses reflected what the industry has earned on its own. Most of you people must have voted for Biden. Handles drop for years and one week increase, they say SEE!!!!

Saratoga sucks anyway!  Beckwith crime syndicate makes the rules there.
