Shows how stupid tracks are for not racing on Christmas day

It’s actually a good decision as the handle doesn’t compensate for OT pay

In my opinion there's a big difference between racing on Christmas Eve like Chester did and Christmas Day. Asking people to work and race on Christmas is a big sacrifice most people aren't willing to make.

The old Meadowlands use to open today. It was like x-mas to harness players. A good card with a big handle. They should raced today instead of earlier in the month. A decent card would have led to double or more handle...then the crappy Thursday cards they had. More tracks are closed too & that means more horses available.

  • Trigger: The BigM on life support, no casino, no good, maybe gets the casino and closes racing down.  Without the BigM The SBOANJ might as well be on Mars!  The only thing that stinks more in NJ than Jiffy Jeff & Fatso, is the smell!  ;D

  • MTP1972: Sakit claims he knows Mark Ford and went up to him and asked him if he's resigning. Ford's response was, who are you?
