Would you rather have Roger Goodell, Bud Selig, David Stern or Bill France (have you seen the dwindling NASCAR "crowds" lately?) in charge of horseracing ? I'd rather horseracing's PTB be myopic, ignorant and inept than those guys....It COULD be worse than it is. Be careful what you wish for.
Horseracing's BIG PLUS...you still never know who is going to win....and if you do your homework anyone can win. In fact a person sitting home in the bathroom can win more money on a horse than the connections take home...in fact you can win more than the horse was bought/sold for....sittin right there on the john. That's not true anymore in any other "sport". (see the Yankees, Cowboys, Rick Hendrick and who cares about the NBA.
