I have noticed that there are 2 or 3 "Expert" posters
that seem to be very knowledgable or at least say they are...all Midwest "Provincial" players...
as they held the Chicago tracks in high esteem
while the East Coast tracks are "poorly run" and
should be closed.
While one poster mentions the horses he or she owns. the long posting trio seem to have a superb
perception of how "not to run a track" e.g.
The Meadowlands...man y would say that this begs the
question of why there is no racing left in Illinois?
I myself used to love the old Balmoral ..and Sportsman's
Park was excellent.
One would think that if Midwest Racing was so
wonderful where are Michigan and Illinois
in terms of the USTA list of Harness Tracks?
Answer: there are none.
Guess it must have been the Christian Track
operators...or were they "Hebrew Track Management"
that ruined the racing?
I am thinking that Yonkers , Monticello, Saratoga,Batavia,
Buffalo, and Tioga seem to be still there...
as well as The Meadowlands thanks to Jeff Gural.
while Balmoral, Maywood, Sportsman's and others
in Illinois have gone the way of the Dodo bird...
Where were you?
Many feel that the expert posters on here who donot agree
with Track Management..wheth er "Hebrew" or "Christian"..
or "Athiest"...or any specific track...
step up to the plate and buy these tracks out...
Put up $60,000,000 to $75,000,000+ of their own cash
and set forth to do a better job...as you are Track Management
Experts.
Needless to say, You will be working 10 hour days
and 60 hour+ weeks...so don't get comfortable.
What's that?
You are short on cash...and time?
So maybe its time to sit back and let the real players
in the Industry run the show.
If you have any serious comments with regard to improving
The Meadowlands...giv e Jeff Gural a call..
chances are he will actually return your call.
It is real easy to complain and slander anonymously
from a keyboard .
