interesting. I can see how it might engage novice players and make it easier to follow the horse you wagered on, but to me, it was nothing but a distraction, although it did make me laugh out loud the first time I saw it.
I don't want to get into another HRTV Vs TVG, but I don't rely on any of the personalities for handicapping (except Gary Stevens, who I think brings a lot to the table). Otherwise, it doesn't matter what network it is. Hell, I'd watch the freakin' Lifetime network if they carried Santa Anita!
