The bettor gets BS info and she's okay with this....??
I knew she said something like this, I wish I was able to quote her when I called.

She is out of her mind and could care less about the bettors, the people that fund their purses and the industry

The replay skip-jumping is a mystery right now to KC. He cannot see why its' happening and its' happening randomly. He's working on it. Tuesday engineer George and Thursday engineer Ralph have had it happen during the taping as well, and it may actually be a problem originating with the link with Sirius.

Then I'm glad I fought throught the anger and listened to the whole thing live. Steve, can you clear up the confusion and explain how Moss became Dutrow's spokesperson?

Moss called me yesterday after I had invited Dutrow on for some 'equal time' as it were.. He had been in contact with her all week about what had transpired on the show with Allday, and she had been urging him to let it drop. It was her hope to try to asuage Dutrow's anger, and his clients' anger, over Allday's comments, and get all parties to desist in the rancor in public.

The visit was well-intentioned, and I think everyone who listened got even more of an insight into the situation the game faces than could possibly have been expected.

Needless to say, the majority of us don't think she came off well. While this is an oversimplification of what she said, I don't think a quality solution to the problem is to stop speaking publicly about it. In fact, logicly, the exact opposite is true, therefore I question how seriously she takes the issue (especially due to the fact that she is quite successful the way the game is being played now). In fact, her big thing was that Dutrow was not hurting any horses, which is fine and commendable, but it doesn't address the competitive edge, or lack of level playing field issues.

Wake up Maggie I think I got something to say to you....

I think it needs to be said that Steve was in no position to respond to Maggie's thinly veiled damage control for Dutrow yesterday for reasons similiar to why the state licensing boards sort of wink at Dutrow for what was done......not enough money to fight for what's right in court!!

"I know I keep you amused but I feel I'm being used"

1) Maggie takes her beautiful "lawyer speak" shot at Allday "well I have been trying to reach him all week and he won't talk to me"

Again we see the double standards of the rich lawyers.....You want people to respect your privacy so you out the doctor practicing his on national radio......very nice Maggie I guess that privacy thing only works when you have the advantage

"I laughed at all of your jokes....."

2) "You don't like what somone's doing......just file something"

That would be your way as a lawyer of settling a dispute but how about a little understanding for those who choose not to lose fortunes upon fortunes in billable hours.

"All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand"

3) "I was a prosecutor I know what I'm talking about here I have talked to lots of people all week long and what I learned is that Rick Dutrow is good to his horses"

A) I think most of us could care less if you put away criminnals for a living, Mr Dutrow seems to have great lawyers that ensure he remain a racing criminal without remorse.

B) Who cares what cronies youv'e talked to, Maggie knows as well as the rest of us that this set of problems is about "no court having juristiction here"

If Dutrow or Bianncone or whomever decide to pull out the full set of "lawyers guns and money" most of these guys won't serve a day until they retire as the reality is that the legal process is not an even playing field for the stews and the state racing boards because they don't have the money to fuel the billable hour machine to see the dispute through to an end...When Maggie says "so why don't you just file something when you believe somethings wrong" she knows the legal machine can eat you for lunch.

"All you did was wreck my bed and in the morning kick me in the head"

C) "Dutrow and Allday are such geniuses"

Consummate lawyer speak for "I am about to hit you in the face with a 2 by 4 but first let me praise your children and dead parents to mislead you and then I am gonna blow so much smoke up your behind you'll think the Black Cloud from Lost was a misplaced belch!!!

"Oh Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face........."
