What a bunch of Bull Crap
 
Can someone tell me how this will increase traffic to horse racing, when you have no race track.

These guys are nothing but a bunch of greedy b's, who are bullies. I am sure our Governor will think this is a great idea.:rolleyes:

I found this part interesting:

>>>Genting will pay for upgrades to the Aqueduct subway station and for direct A-train service to take passengers from Fulton Street in Manhattan to the site—with a stop in downtown Brooklyn—in half the 35 minutes it takes now. The company won't fund a new AirTrain spur from John F. Kennedy International Airport. It also will not pay for street upgrades.<<<



If they design an new "A" train that gets you from essentially JFK to midtown in roughly 15-20 minutes -the implications would be exponential - much further reaching than simply attracting slot players and convention goers to Ozone Park.

so Genting pays for it (right now) - who runs it? who pays for maintenance and upkeep? MTA? if so, expect the AirTrain to make a stop in Aqueduct - and a gazillion airport customers that have no interest in either taking advantage of the convenience... lotta hands in this pie, and getting them all together will be a sight to see.

If you are surprised then you are not being truthful. NOBODY GIVES A F>>k about Horse Racing. Wait till you start running MDN SPL's at SPA for 80k..ITS OVER before it started.
