Default why isn't this "national" headlines

I must admit that I have been away from the day-to-day operations of horse racing for the last year.

But today I got an earful from a good friend who lives in NJ. He is a HUGE harness fan spanning over 40 years.

As an industry we can not let the Meadowlands close down. I told Jim that I look at the Meadowlands as the primer harness track in the entire country. Only the best drivers, horses and trainers participate there.

Meadowlands racing brings in a ton of money to the economy not to mention payroll and payroll taxes.

Please tell me that its not too late and that the Meadowlands is not on the chopping block and most importantly that its stardom will regain fire again.
