It's okay, I'm used to it.

I don't live in Chicagoland, but I'm glad to see HR get into a major market like Chicago. It really is a very good product. They made a lot of improvements since the start of the Santa Anita Winter meeting, especially the graphics package. I prefer HR's graphics to TVG's. TVG drives me crazy. A race ends and graphics reappear on the screen, but the odds for the race that just completed never seem to be the one shown. HRTV always flashes the odds graphic for the race just completed right after they cross the wire. What a concept?

With Hollywood opening in a couple of weeks, I won't be watching HR as much. I tend to follow the So. Cal circuit and will be doing a lot of muting with TVG on. Geez, another 9 months of Pick 4 and Pick 6 tickets from the losers at TVG. God I wish they'd stop touting those tickets. For those in Chicago watching Arlington on HRTV, enjoy. They've got a great crew over there.

I had insight
insight got bought out by Comcast and Comcast is terrible. they charge for every little thing. The first thing they did was raise their prices. It's disgusting. I can't get satelite so I can't dump them.

Well, I could but I still have to pay for it.

I'm in the same boat, though I had Adelphia, which was taken over by Comcast. Adelphia didn't offer TVG, and Comcast won't offer it to us Adelphia converts. My prices seem to go up every 2-3 months. Hopefully, I will be able to get HRTV soon.

Both channels are available on Verizon FIOS if it's in your area - I've been rockin 'em both for about a year (Tampa area). I've got to agree that HRTV is heads and shoulders better...TVG is an amazing confidence booster though - After listening to Ken Rudolf for a half an hour I feel like a genius
