not bad.

Aqu needs to go immediately, and Bel needs to be winterized and expanded to house slots. two structures have bankruptcy written all over them, doesn\'t matter who\'s running the show. sorry guys, racing on its own just ain\'t going to survive in the big apple. not anymore, and it\'s not even close.

a different group should control Sar. the place is an historical site, and should be treated as such. it can pay for itself. people up there seem to like horses.

When Bill Nader left NYRA in April, that should have said it all.

The interest level from the gaming people has waned somewhat because they want to keep a higher portion of the slot take and the per machine revenue is only about half the projections.It\'s a total mess right now and the whole process is being butchered in Albany.
