At least he is pointing out the fact that the reason the harness racing leaders didn't clean out the Bancas, Suricks etc is because they were all in it together. All the good people fucked by their own leaders.

If SCM can blow the top off of the Yonkers situation, it will go down in history as his greatest accomplishment!

Faralduh is probably steaming over make owning him lately.  Good for SCM, I don't agree with everything he says, but Joe seems like a smug asshole who thinks rules are only for others.

Cares for the horse's my ass. Where was the "care" when he was working for those scum bags..Got the boot got mad and this is what started his witch hunt. Not because he "cares" for the horses!

I've never heard him give a good answer as to why he never reported any of this years ago.  I think that hurts his credibility a little.

I like Mike, I have no personal issues with him, he takes shots at me I take shots at him, but at the end of the day if he saves more horses from constant torture, bad trainers or worse a death. I'm in full support of the Petrelli Factor.  tmbz1 tmbz1 tmbz1

Why try to make Mike the bad guy for not reporting sooner? At least he did and who gives a fuck why. Keep up the good work Mike.

Someone who knows, what trainers has he worked for, from the start? Thats what we need to know and it does matter because now all of a sudden he's saving horses from people and from what he did , i doubt he had a 'finding God' moment  😁

THANK YOU. I SAID IT ALL ALONG. SCM HAS ZERO CREDIBILITY. DONT GET ME WRONG THAT HE ISN'T DOING A GOOD DEED TODAY, BUT THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING IN IT FOR HIM. HE IS SELF-RIGHTEOUS LIKE ALL OF THE OTHER BUSTOUTS WHO COULDN'T MAKE IT IN THE BUSINESS SO THEY TEAR IT DOWN WITH ALL OF THE WRONGFUL DIRT YEARS LATER AFTER THEY HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO LOSE. LIKE I SAID, I'M GLAD THAT HE IS DOING SOMETHING, BUT YOU'LL NEVER CONVINCE M E THAT SCM DIDN'T PARTICIPATE IN THIS BULLSHIT WHEN HE WAS IN THE BUSINESS AND DIDNT STAND BY AND WATCH OTHERS TORTURE HORSES YEARS AGO. ITS JUST TODAY THAT HE WANTS TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT AND I'M OKAY WITH THAT, BUT NOT PINNING AND MEDALS ON HIM BECAUSE HE WAS PART OF THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM.

Sorry pal, but someone who talks bad about the dead like the late-great Wes Fisher who did nothing but help horsemen and was driven out of business because of guys like (Eric Molor, Ross Cohen and Austin Gilbert among others who ran out on there feed bills) is no fucking hero in my book! BTW tell your hero to pay his bills.

No offense XYZ but if YR goes bye bye you will hardly be the first person to predict this. In fact it feels like this prediction has been going on since the Meadowlands opened up in the mid 1970’s. I recall before the the advent of their casino their purses were down to the $5,000 range for many of their cheaper races. Less and less people were attending and the place was falling apart. I swear this place is like a cat having nine lives.

Correct===but ask yourself--why is this happening?
The main reason IMHO--is the people running the show are to blame along with the greedy tax people.
Casinos--for some reason get charged less tax than what the Rooneys were paying. Then there were too many snouts feeding on the trough. For eg--some 120 MILLION was supposed to go into advertising and infrastructure--instead this money was funnelled away from this-into Casinos-and pockets of hierarchy.
Secondly--I was told the race secretaries--put on the worst race cards one can imagine. Race secretaries seem to think that having 1/9 shots winning-helps handle. It doesnt. the last 40 years I was told has seen more odds on favorites at Yonkers than any other track in History. There is no value-the same drivers/trainers control the races-so big bettors not interested.
Now-the Casinos are on a mission to decouple---so the last 3 years since MGM has taken over-harness is neglected--as an owner-if I want to watch my horse race--I cant. Unless I stand next to the track--not much fun in cold weather. Restaurants closed. Only simulcast open and that place is the pits--nothing for an owner. MGM promised before Rooneys so;d it--that they would support racing--make it viable--thats hard if the wrong people are in charge--those just out to make a buck.  Ive seen Casinos and racetracks get along-Gulfstream in Florida I liked. Saratoga doing OK. Miami Valley OK Indiana. In the UK its working also.  So it can be done---but need co operation.

Keep Yonkers Open.   It will hopefully keep the scumbags and crooks away from everywhere else.

You got to be out of your mind to wager a penny on that dump.
