The timing is obvious if you think about it. By making the start day February 14th it won't be interrupted....it will either start...or not. |

Yes, making a joke. Lighten up, Francis. |

By the way, I'm hearing a deal may actually be announced today. I'm holding my breath in anticipation. |

Oh, I get it, you don't like it that I pointed out why there was a February 14th deadline, so you drag out the tired " lighten up Francis " line. If you don't like that people respond to your posts, whether you are joking or serious, I don't understand why you post. You were right, however, I wasn't specifically responding to you with my general comments. And, for what it's worth, I'm also a big fan of " Stripes. " |

Hey, of course I expect responses to posts(mine or others). I was just trying to clarify what I felt was a false assumption. I do understand the deadline timing, that's why I was kidding with it. No worries. |

The problem with this whole process is that there has been absolutely ZERO transparency regarding the issues involved. While I know that the parties can't be expected to "publicly" negotiate the agreement, without knowing the respective bargaining positions of the parties involved, it's virtually impossible to know who's right and wrong at this time.
Based on his ridiculous proposals in the past, my instincts strongly suggest that it's been Bruno - who can care less about the horsemen, unless they continue to contribute to his political coffers - who has single-handedly been at fault over the past few months. If the sticking point is the composition of the NYRA board, however, I'm a little less sympathetic to NYRA's position if, as reported, the proposed deal will enable NYRA to maintain a majority (11 of 21) of the seats on a reconstituted Board. |
If Bruno is doing something positive for NY horsemen I think that's a good thing. You don't hear much from NY horsemen and they deserve a big slice of the pie.

Slight movement today while Bruno spews new bile and invective.. He is as odious and vile a public official as I've seen in my life.
