Even critics of NYRA, like me, have no problem with them being awarded the franchise. The issue is accountability. Nobody is worthy of a 30 yr franchise, but a group that has a "shaky" history really isn't worthy.
If the problem is with OTB's then they need to resolve it. I just wonder why if the setup is so bad, why is NYRA fighting so hard for something that is impossible to break even with. Makes ZERO sense. Somebody is making money off the current situation and I suspect that somebody(ies) is connected to NYRA somehow.
