Since I assume that you still wager on races even through your clear disgust for the sport....then i contend that THAT, is "who pays for the GD purse" smart guy. if you've got a brilliant idea of how to make the game more entertaining, let's hear it. But I am pretty darn sure that you telling someone else what to do with their money and their investment is not the answer.

I may be young, but I am smart enough to know that's not how the world works -- people like you don't get to tell people like them what to do with the things they own, having bought with their own money. Almost Orwellian actually -- it seems you've got a really great direction for us to be heading in here, wiseguy.
Cooperation between all the tracks and racing entities. A true National Authority like other major sports have. If NASCAR can make a mint by incessantly running automobiles around a track, I should certainly think horse racing could stand on its own. This is one of the most fractured entertainment industries in the country.

And for Christ sakes I am not telling anybody what to do with their horses. I am saying this sport is dying a slow death. Do you get that Mr. 1984? Or it would be communistic for diff. entities with in the sport to unite? Good lord.
