That being said, the slots will happen and it will happen soon for the simple reason is that these numbnuts need to draw money from somewhere and this creates free money to spend for them.

Dinner is on me at John George if they have the VLT's opened by 1/1/12. OTB has 1500 jobs and a UNION they aren't closing ever. Why the heck would NYRA want those 1400 jobs, bloated benny packages, under funded pension liablity etc etc. they would be smart to stay FAR away from that toxic waste land.
