Grenig touches on Jacobson's return
 
Dave Jacobson has been very shy with the media since his return to the NY racing scene last summer. It's understandable given the rancor associated with his departure from the game 25 years before and the fame and infamy of his father. He gave Ed Fontaine an interview at Saratoga, and appears to be opening up a little more now... Dave Grenig featured him in his Track Notes in the Form today.

For those that aren't familiar with Buddy Jacobson, his NY Times obit below gives just a snapshot of what was one of racing's wildest stories...

That is a wild story about his father. Very interesting!

Best part of the article is the mention of Oscar... All that is good about racing summed up in one word OSCAR.

I don't know why horse racing's most notorious trainer is not in the celebrity crime library... but many sordid other celebrity types are.

imo you all care about your lousy retirement. from what? it is our duty to to work . Buddy worked until the day he died.
It is our duty to work.
To those who aspire to retire, at 55. There is no retirement from reality. Retirement from this world is not an option. We must always work, fight, for a better world.

I retired from reality awhile ago...
I was thinking that you might have done so even longer ago,

"Grenig" sounds like a slur you'd use against a Leprechaun.
