I liked this one... this is why he's paid the big bucks. Cauthen could easily be hired by one of the polytrack companies.

"Who knows? In a few years they could be spreading in popularity, just like Polytrack.”

My guess is that most of the NY politicians involved don't even know who these jockeys are.

What is it with the cheap shots? Is your life so pathetic that you find it necessary to belittle me in order to face yourself?

I like it. I think you're on to something there.

Maybe ... sprinting mules?

"God this is the dumbest idea ever. Hell...even throat would be better than these clowns."

"Uh what? I like you, guy. Oh poor me the victim. Good luck."

From coverage of April's bidders' presentations. Tedisco is on the state panel considering the bids.

"He's (Bailey) the guy, that if you want to put two bucks on somebody or a franchise on somebody's back, you can trust him because of his past record and his integrity and ability," said Assembly Minority Leader James Tedisco, R-Schenectady, whose district includes Saratoga Springs. "He added a tremendous amount to this group."

That guy knows quite a bit. I just hope he isn't screwing his constituancy that doesn't care about racing with other idiotic decisions.
