What is going on with PA commission?
-
They have one, is more a shock than you think there is a problem.
One day I'll start a thread with just this - DID YOU SEE THAT! ngc3

No job is safe . Salerno Chukas and Jason Klouser let go today . I’d like to say I feel bad but I don’t . Didn’t hear a reason so one can only assume. Now they need to get rid of bullshit commissioners. Horrible group of people who make decisions and don’t even get paid . We can only hope for a fresh start and no more puppets in Pennsylvania.

Mikee or shopping cart whatever they call you,,, I think Pocono downs knows a little bit more about the politics of racing than you do. By the way Tommy is a great guy we go way back the whole family are great even the father was

Very true. If they don't know who it is, they are clueless about PA racing. Porkchop always seemed like a standup guy.

Thank you , I’ve done my share of time and paid a lot in fines. But when I got in trouble for anything when I was wrong or not I never took anyone with me . Them 3 guys buried me 2017 because I complained about the track at Chester and a year later Anthony Colleta got his life ruined. All good wish all well. Let’s hope for better things in Pa .
-
Question is : Who do they replace them with. Pork chop always takes the good with the bad. Stand up guy
-
Maybe it has something to due with that dude who got his license revoked for booby trapping the light switch at Tioga. Another PA licensee that is serving life in another state.
-
Chuckas and Salerno were both fired today
-
Salerno has a solid history in both racing and the politics.
In culture of politics of tge state racing commission, being experienced and qualified mean little vs. political juice.
If the guy next door retired from his USPS Mail carrier position and has a cousin in tge Governor's office, the former mailman will get appointed to tge Racing Commissioner's job.

That is a good question i guess for now , the lawyer Augusta and Redding will make the calls or just put everything on hold until they appoint someone.

well then my apologies if Tommy's is your brother,, you come from a great family I knew you're father and brother's.
The problem with Mikeee or shopping cart whatever the fuck they call him is that he's got so many fucking fake names on here you don't know who is who.

Again I’ll say it so you don’t think I’m saying something wrong. Tommy is a fair great guy. Steve is a great horseman and friend . Tony was a normal person till he went to Harrisburg and it went to his head fucked me hard and never kept his word. But he was no more than a puppet up there .
I’m not hiding everyone In the business that is someone knows me. If you don’t then you been Idle over 40 years

We know Anthony
Everyone knows you.

I've dealt with the family for years never had a problem always class people. I would have to say Steve Salerno was the nicest of them great guy.

This doesn't seem to be a well thought out process. Not surprised. Normal would be to have replacements in the wings especially this much of a sweep. Press statements, possible damage control. I finally have to admit,I get it they don't care, because nobody else cares.No accountability Shits hit the fan in NJ and NY with commissions and yet nothing changes. Example Zubkof at Buffalo, fine example of the quality they hire.

I asked my trainer at the Meadows about this, and he said nothing has come out yet.
