I think that Joe Faraldo might be well intentioned over the years, but i think a change might be good for the future of harness racing.

CHANGE is the only GOOD for the abbreviated survival of the sport.

Get a copy of the USTA bylaws and see what getting him removed entails.  I'm sure between all of us and our social media we could put some heavy pressure on them for removal.

on the subject of the USTA rules.  This is a perfect example of good old fellas- playin' insiders.  They sit on regional committees and call ALL of the shotz.  This year, members of the association spent time to develop and submit suggested modifications.  Of the 30+ submissions, only half met the royal tribunals; approval.  Fact is, every idea was sent in by dues paying members.  Now just why do a handfull of morally superior boardmen make any decision?  These interested parties obviously saw a need and drafted a change.  The only thing that the board oughta do is review and then rewrite to meet rule understanding and enforcement.

Well said. And this is why UNTIL the old guard is changed, Harness racing will die at they're hand. They're not willing to change and shall only continue to operate in the corrupt manner they have known and groomed. Russell Williams is as corrupt as they come!

Talked with Joe Thompson at Winbak Farms many years ago. Very simple, breeders won't bitch (although knowing full well what is going on) because nobody buys their babies. Been down this road with the chainsaw salesman Fred Noe, Phil (Fuck Up) Langley and others with the USELESS TWATTING ASSOCIATION.

The cheaters must protect the cheaters.

Honest Ronnie Burke and Andy Miller race where  ngc3 ngc3 ngc3

This because they dont feel theyre votes matter.  If everyone stopped paying there dues, watch how quickly you would get their attention.
