Out of agenting business. Think Garrett hired Tony Matos. Excellent choice IMO

TVG programming is all over the map. The refusal to show Woodbine racing and an apparent anti-bias against harness racing seems to be noticeable to all parties now. The network seems to think that showing Remington and Charles Town would result in better figures, but it doesn't. Keeneland is on the net in a few weeks, but most of us (I would assume) will watch those races on their HD feed online.

All one has to do is watch the channel tonight to see what their motives are. Showing Turfway, Remington and Charles Town over Meadowlands and having Rich and Christina host "Drive Time" or whatever they would like to call it.

What's wrong with Remington? And Charles Town is a great spot-play track.

You're just jellus.

Interesting thread.

I have both TVG and HRTV. I refuse to watch TVG. TVG to me is like reading fiction. At times I put HRTV on without the sound.

I don't give a rat’s about what ANY of those people have to say. If I want to find out what other people’s opinions are I usually come here to see if anyone has anything to say on the matter. If not, I decide on my own and hope for the best.

I use Twinspires so I can pick and choose what I want to watch when I want to watch it.

On the other hand I hate to hear that anyone lost their job. I hope those folks find work as quickly as possible. Best of luck to all of them.
