Wagering online is ri-goddamn-diculous right now

I'm fiending so bad for Pinnacle i'm breaking out in a cold sweat just thinking about it.

I'm looking at Bris right now and you can wager by phone for Hollywood tonight but you can't wager online. WTF difference does it make?

It's just wonderful to be at home on a Friday and fund an extra account just so I can wager on one track that isn't offered by Bris. I've got to hand it to track management and TVG, Bris, YouBet, etc, if they are out to ruin this game and nickle-dime each other to death, they're doing a great job. Kudos to anonymous President of Ineptitude and Douchebaggery for your fine work.

I'm just gonna say eff it and not wager today. This is BS and i'm sick of a sport that is crippled by corporate greed and shortsightedness and a complete lack of respect for the fan.

Yes, I agree completely. All it does is drive me away from the online game towards the track, which is fine with me. Fact is that once they figure out who has the largest **** in the ring, it will all get straighten out. I really don't blame Churchill/Magna for doing what they are doing, just think it could be done a different way. Now TVG is sueing over copyright infringement, good luck proving that.....

If I could have it my way I would have it

1) Youbet's Platform(Bar none the best in the ADW world, they just need more memory so it quickens up a little bit)
2) Winticket's customer service
3) Xpressbet's ease of depositing
4) Pinny rebates

At first I was glad Churchill took a stand but after I thought about it and read a few articles I realized that Churchill and Magna had the opportunity years ago to start their own online wagering services and Television Network and decided against it. This enabled TVG, YouBet and Bris to take advantage of Magna/Churchill's lack of vision.

It speaks volumes of how this sport is hampered by a lack of real leadership. Magna bleeds money and tries to fix the problem with shopping centers and buying farmland in Bumf.uck California.

Churchill's brand of management was witnessed first hand at Ellis Park. Talk about a disaster from start to finish. Without the greatest race in the game, Churchill would be a fricken penny stock.

I have no confidence in these two. Now that they've merged(somewhat) it's going to be comical what will happen in the future.

Youbet has ZERO to do with all this. They are at the mercy of the tracks, if anything, they have stood against it and let tracks suffer, like a Philly Park, who finally came to their senses and agreed to decent terms.

Pillow, it will eventually work out, once people's pocket books hurt. Once Youbet/TVG/Churchill's numbers come back down, things will open up
