![]() Dave Jacobson has been very shy with the media since his return to the NY racing scene last summer. It's understandable given the rancor associated with his departure from the game 25 years before and the fame and infamy of his father. He gave Ed Fontaine an interview at Saratoga, and appears to be opening up a little more now... Dave Grenig featured him in his Track Notes in the Form today.
http://www.drf.com/news/article/91687.html For those that aren't familiar with Buddy Jacobson, his NY Times obit below gives just a snapshot of what was one of racing's wildest stories... http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpag...56C0A96F948260

![]() imo you all care about your lousy retirement. from what? it is our duty to to work . Buddy worked until the day he died.
It is our duty to work. To those who aspire to retire, at 55. There is no retirement from reality. Retirement from this world is not an option. We must always work, fight, for a better world. Last edited by sumitas : 01-21-2008 at 10:35 AM. |
