Title: Message for TGJB/TGAB -- ROTW
Post by: richiebee on January 15, 2010, 07:12:16 AM
Guys:

How about a ROTW which jibes with some of the current topics being kicked around
the Board:

Give us a \"lock\" strategy which will produce a $4.60 show mutuel at a track that
70% of the horseplayers on the Eastern seaboard can\'t seem to be able to get a
bet down at.

Richie-- you know, if you start writing letters to the editor of the Register they might eventually give you a column.

JB--

The Staten Island daily is called the \"Advance\".

In the early and mid 1990s, they devoted quite a bit of space to Racing at NYRA,
Monmouth and the Meadowlands with fairly extensive daily analysis; this coverage
seems to haved been replaced by expanded coverage of mens and womens high school
sports.

The fellow who used to cover the flat tracks, who shall remain nameless, seems to
have dropped out of sight. A rumor which is too good to be true is that in the
days before enhanced facilities security and direct payroll deposits, this
writer\'s bookie would be waiting at the Advance offices each Friday to
collect \"his\" paycheck.
