We dont get Sampras, Agassi, Chang and Courier anymore. We get James Blake, Mardy Fish and Robby Ginepri. Teenage kids at the OTBs instead of at tennis academies.

Everyone here on this board has a love/passion for racing. So what's wrong with trying to pass that love to your children? We all talk about how there is no young blood in the sport. Well we are trying to teach the next generation of fans. It is not about teaching my son about gambling, it's about teaching him about the differnt aspects of racing. My son and I do plenty of things and go to the track is one of them.
