Oh just to be clear George's problem with Jack Lee came from the fact that as first and second announcer they went into business together selling tape recordings of the races they announced. Long story short, jack stole George's half of the proceeds. it was a lot. pretty sure George sued and won damages. jack was a drunken asshole who once said "Fuck you, Carmine" on a hot mic.
Wow interesting!

Wish I could recall- George had a very funny phrase, probably during his Pocono gig, something about betting little meant you couldn’t win much… I am screwing it up, but if you folks out there remember, it’s worth posting.

Are you sure Mitch McConnell or Diane Feinstein didn’t say this very recently because I don’t get it.  73cv.2

At Ocean Downs way back. He had a horse named "Fire in the hole". Well as you know he gets excited at times and he's calling the horses and here comes Fire in the Hole from way back to draw off in deep stretch. George hollers as loud as he can..PLEASE, someone call the Berlin Fire dept! There's a FIRE IN THE HOLE!! and HE"S ALL MINE!"

One of my favorites quotes from Jack was “Money Order trying to cash in from the outside”!

Years and years ago, a horse was all alone on a hide lead at Monti. and Howard Oil screamed out something like , "and that's "so and So Hanover" in front by 7, three quarters in 1.24.4 - CALL THE FIRE DEPT!" as if to say the horse is burning up the track. Apparently he was suspended for like 3 days for that stunt.

I’ve been told two things about Howard Oil by the regulars, all 20 of them, at MR. First they say he looks like Howdy Doody. Second the minute the races are over you can find him at the Middletown, NY OTB. Now this is over five years ago but if it’s true he probably still looks like Howdy Doody  73cv.2

  • dougie: IIB, I think the mayor will sign the bill if it reaches his desk. The optics on this issue is bad for the horse carriage industry. Animal activists are adept to using the media to enlist horror and anger by the public.

  • Ignorance Is Bliss: It's now a bill with city council. Public hearings will be scheduled then the council votes on it. If passed it's sent to the Mayor to sign into law. He has already said he's in. Marte just took over, Bob Holden is the actual author of the bill who retired last year.

  • dougie: IIB, I have been reading some of the work Councilman Marte has been doing on this issue. I think he might be successful with passing the 'Ryders Law" Bill this time around. The image of the horse dead on the street has even been seen here everywhere. If the animal activists can get this on the ballot, who knows how the vote will go.
