Who knows... in another 25 years .. I might have seen so much that I will have no need to review and just be putting quotes into old trainers mouths about stuff that never even happend.

How do I counter this amusing new attack? Maybe like ....

- were your father and grandfather stone cold degenerate gamblers who forcefed this sh!t straight down your throat?

- did you grow up living in a room above a bar that was known for bookmaking on the racing they showed on the local cable TV station before the big OTB came to the city in 1990?

- did your father ever quit his business to train race horses - even though he had never so much as pet a horse in his life before making the decision - and only got a trainers license because he bribed a guy? And only wanted a trainer license so he could gamble.

I don't even think they simulcasted with more than 3 or 4 other tracks in places like NY and Cal prior to like maybe 1995 ... if that ...did they? I can't imagine how people in those areas have seen as much racing even if they are 50. It's not easy for anyone to match that kind of degenerate upbringing.
