Default TVG and Magna getting married?

How in the hell is TVG televising from Magna owned Lone Star Park tonight? That doesn't make a whole lot of sense? Could this be something to look forward to in the future?

When you run a bunch of nags, and you take 30% out of the WPS pools, you need to get that on as many screens as you can. I wouldn't read much into it. Its kinda like a televised 3 card monte game.

When did they show Lone Star? I have TVG on right now. The only tracks they are showing are Hollywood, Bay Meadows, and Los Alamitos. In addition, the TVG website is not offering bets on Lone Star.

They have looked at purchasing Winticket.com, which means they would have to buy Beulah Park and would inherit the Buelah Twins, which they wouldn't mind....but I would bet they just start their own IWP....

They will offer TVG a one-sided deal to broadcast their content, and I bet TVG refuses - unless the two merge and TVG becomes a CDI product....

If Empire Racing purchases NYRA, TVG would probably go bankrupt due to only having tracks like Oaklawn, Tampa Bay Downs and Keeneland (private tracks) to offer live racing and wagering on......

The next six months will be huge in the way this industry is set business-wise......
COOL!!!! Then we won't have to put up with Todd Shrupp anymore!!!YAYYYYY!!!!

they are just there for the MBNA Challenge.
big event so I am sure TVG made arrangements with Magna.
its not the first time they have done this with a non TVG track.

Im sure if and when the BC goes to Gulfstream, TVG will find a way to get a crew on site.
Im starting to get excited.
almost to the big race.

and Chris K is not a homo.
dont know where that came from, but he is a good race caller and a good person.
Scavs is right, if anyone is a little funny on that crew its Les.
best quarter capper I have ever seen, but those suits are weird.

no sh*t Scuds.
freaked me out.

they ran those same ads about 6 months ago.
then they went away.
I assumed others, like me, emailed TVG and let them know that we did not appreciate that crap.
thought for once they listened to us over the advertisers.
unfortunately they are back.

you know,
Ive learned to tune out all those "dial-a-date" type commercials.
thats what they fill the commercials slots up with late at night on dish.
thats fine, its just a bunch of sluty girls trying to get guys to call.

but when you see a bunch of queers on your tv screen talking about some service exclusively for queers, it kind of makes you sick at your stomach and p*ssed that a network like TVG sells out to that crap.

just be careful not to be eating anything while watching TVG after midnight.
what you see during commercial breaks might make you nauseas.

Nah Kotulak isn't a queer. I just made that comment cause he looks fruity wearing a cowboy hat.

You guys think Onaka is queer? I thought he was hawaiian and if so he gets a pass cause don't most hawaiian's dress fruity?
