Will be the Met, they draw tomorrow for Monday. For all you old Post Time fans, I\'m also starting this week to do it for TVG, I think they\'re going to show it Sunday and Monday mornings.

Don\'t know, it\'s on tape. They might be able to tell you. Also, it\'s just going to be a bad photo and a phone call in.

That\'s great! I can\'t wait to hear it.  I also enjoy the job Alan\'s does on the radio every week.

That\'s great Jerry!  Will you be doing the race replays too?  I loved that show - stopped going out on Friday nights for fear of missing it when I lived in Florida!

Are there any GOOD photos of you? :) Hope this doesn\'t ruin our value.

Bad photos enhance our value. They\'ll think he\'s a dweeb and ignore him.

Until he starts winning of course.

In 1991 I was a college kid living 25 miles from Keeneland. My dad had been dragging me to the track since I was in kindergarten. I knew the basics of handicapping and had the love for the game but not a clue as to what I was really doing. I stumbled onto a show called Post Time. Some guy I had never heard of explained to me the \"bounce\" theory and gave me a good reason as to why my sure fire Derby bet had flopped badly that year. I told my Dad that we might want to head to the Red Mile and simulcast the Preakness and try to recoup some of our losses. I had $30 to win on Hansel, Dad had a $150...and I\'ve been hooked ever since. Thanks Jerry for all the help down through the years. I look forward to hearing what you have to say on TVG.

I watched Post Time every Saturday morning in NY.

Introduced to Jerry and TG by that show.

The production value wasn\'t great but the information was.

I don\'t get TVG, maybe someone will post it on youtube so I can watch it for old time\'s sake.

It\'s just going to be me reading the ROTW over the phone while they show the sheets, and a really bad photo. My head\'s really not that big, I swear.

Before I did this I went back and watched one of the old Post Times. Interesting how the hair migrated from my head to my chin.
