A song less than a year old should not be played as the song for the Belmont. Not to mention the rendition was horrid. Oh, and the fact there is much more to the "Empire State" than the "concrete jungle."

I always loved "New York, New York." I mean, when you are trying to somewhat replicate what "My Old Kentucky Home" is for the Derby, with what this song is to the Belmont the last thing that comes to my mind is a Jay-Z song.

Thank god ABC cut away, we were seconds away of switching the channel and waiting for the Capital OTB replay.
