Shouldn't they have gotten someone who bets? Isn't Steve better suited for a special guest appearance on the Food Network?

Seeing what Steve has done and been involved with, I can see him and Bobby Flay doing a Bar B Q show

Must be a different Steve Byk... :o






J/K... Thank you and to everyone else...

It was nice to be asked and I'm eager to help in any way I can. They may just want access to the radio show... ;)

First thing is the legislation on the tax laws from what I'm hearing/reading/being told... Haven't rec'd agenda/platform/priorioty goal lists at all yet...

Out of curiosity, does horse racing have a paid lobbyist at the federal level? Oh, and congrats Steve and to all of the other panel members.

American Horse Council is the heavyweight hitter in DC on behalf of equine interests.

(And thx.)

Obviously I have no clue, but why try and tackle a gorilla(tax laws) for the first battle? Why not get the ADW situation ironed out, make it a success, and then go and tackle the bozo's at the IRS.
