This is a very silly comment. In fact, Chip Woolley had been earlier lauded in Kentucky and Maryland for actively speaking out on behalf of Horsemen on the slots issue, utilizing his own remarkable rise from obscurity as the point of reference.

Woolley has been a surprise to everyone who has encountered him. He's bright, articulate and in touch with the current state of the game. Just because he also happens to be a Southwesten version of a hardboot, doesn't mean he doesn't have something to contribute.
