You have to admit, from a production standpoint it's absolutely horrible. When going back to look a videos of previous races they show the wrong ones....the microphone issue....Clancy going braindead on during the show....the show is an embarassment.

It looks like a show that was being done back in the early 70's.

Ron Burgundy

That show IS painful to watch and listen to.

Behooved :D

"Trackfacts" is pretty lame, you can see Nick Kling pick 9 of the 11 morning line favorites every day if you just pick up a Saratogian. And "Down the Stretch" is very corny. The back and forths between Veich and Cusano are like a bad Abbot and Costello episode. You get the impression that there guests dont really want to be there. They never make any kind of selections or rational before a race, which is what the public wants. Nobody wants to see the replay of a race run 7 days prior, when they have already seen it 10 times.

The only show worth watching is the Mormino show (9am Sat & Sun) which is excellent. Hes got a personality, dresses nice and his rational and selections are both superb. He does have the tendency to gloat about his winners, but most people do.

"Talking Horses" is a great show too, but I guess that doesnt count as a Capital OTB production seeing it is a NYRA thing. I like listening to Eric Donovan and Jason Blewitt. Really good guys.

What or which commerical? Usually watch MSG plus for the race replays, the only time I watch MSG is on Wednesday nights for; you guess it.....WWE MSG Classics! :D Surely not to watch the Knicks :eek: !

That's about the only thing I agree with you, it's always about me I've told that to my wife & step kids for years ;) and your right, I may not have a pretty face, but I'm not a miserable old complainer like........

Ok guys, I get it.......what's REALLY painful is this thread & "lovefest" with you guys. That's alright, I still respect your opinions.............

hey, just saw you guys in the winners circle after the 8th race........

just kidding

Yes because when I made the make-up joke it was totally because I was saying you're ugly and in no way was it because you're acting like a little b____.

:wf

Can I be your b___?

:wf :wf

Your name is not Jethro. You probably don't qualify.

Glad to hear that :p

Thanks for your support on this. Fans in the Capital area, for the most part, do support and like, most of the time, what they see. OTBTV is not perfect, not a lot of bells and whistles, but the people on air do give out info to consider. Love'em or hate'em.

I hope this is the end of the thread.

shame of it is, those kids have bigger problems than being in an OTB.

Just turn MSG on for 30 minutes and you will see it.
