I was at the Paramus Mall this afternoon. There must have been nearly 1500 people there. What's the fucking difference between a racetrack staying open and a mall or Walmart, Target etc, etc....And the answer is... FUCKING NOTHING!!!But you haters want to condemn Horse Racing because you are all a bunch of pathetic jealous haters and losers. If a track elects to stay open, that is their business. Horsemen don't have to enter their horses to race. Patrons can stay at home. Simple as that ASSHOLES.

I guarantee the Paramus Mall will not be open on Sunday.
Mike knows why.

You people think with the economy going in the shitter and everything closing that handle at racetrack going to be worth keeping it open......governo rs closing casinos.......gue ss that means racing too.   It’s a very insignificant part of the economic picture.

it should be up to the horsepeople and patrons if the track is to stay open. most tracks dont have many in the grandstand. its all ready social distancing. i agree that we are letting malls and stores stay open so why not a track. heck the corner gas station sees more people in a day than most tracks. closing a casino makes perfect sense. way too many people too close together and average age of 75.

Time for this to be turned into positive....grab off the two or three tracks still open and run 'night at the races' in conjunction with TVG. 90 minute block 7 nights a week..maybe 8p -930p. From mohawk hawthorne northfield cal expo

ESPN FOX TSN NESN YES SPORTSTNET ETC....HAVE NOTHING for foreseeable future. nothing.they NEED programming NOW-- classic wrestling and roller derby gold good BUT IT AINT SPORT OF KINGS nighttime edition.

The TVG component maybe gets accounts opened up to newcomers.  But for sure..exposes the product to new fans who are are shut in or with no options.

Horseracing to the rescue..turn the misery to a positive...north america desperate for something..THIS might be rarest of opportunities.... ...otherwise more kobe salutes and bucky dent hr reruns straight ahead

it is a great idea if we could do it. racing missed the boat 50 years ago to be big on tv. maybe now is the time. states all lift restrictions on the adws so everyone can get online and bet. it just might work.
