its not that the sky is falling...its more like another nail in the coffin and the clouds are lowering. the management, governing bodies and such are not that bright either... to say they don't have problems out there and racing handle in general is like sticking your head in the sand. want to see this game go away, alienate the bettors. its pure economics, self interests and competition. its in the self interests of racing to give the best product (quality,quanity and cost) to the bettor (customer) or people will shop elswhere. try running a track that people don't like to bet on. or even worse one that owners/trainers don't want to race on. you have california in a nut shell. people call it complaining but how long will they last at the present course and then this board will be lit up with crying: "What happened ???!!!!" someone point out a good decision they've made in 5 years and i'll listen. they are hurting" lets raise the takeout that will drum up business"...lol...lol. desolation row, " was that some kind of joke!"
