Dustin Hoffman, Nick Nolte join 'Luck' cast

[Dahoss]

Whether anyone wants to admit it or not, what was portrayed in the show is kind of an accurate depiction of the racetrack and racetrack people.

Degenerate gamblers using their checks to play races is a reality. Anyone who has ever stepped foot in an OTB knows this truth. Horses break down. It's unfortunate, but it happens. Trainers put over horses almost daily.

We all know this happens, so why are we so bothered when this is shown? If the people that talk to horses facebook pages were turned off...who cares? They were already turned off anyway, so it was only a matter of time. They can have Racing Stripes and the people living in reality can have this show.
