No, it's his way of telling you to support your local OTB/track.

It is his way of telling you (and everyone else) to get out of the Northeast, awful, terrible place it is.

I know, I was teasing. We were lucky enough to get out by the skin of our teeth after cutting 100K off the price.

I'm talking mainly southwest...not Alabama.

Advantages?..freeze your a$$ off, scrape your windshield, shovel your driveway, take off your boots, pay a high gas bill, stock up in the supermarket, get sick...enjoy!

I'd rather claw my own eyes out than live in Phoenix or Vegas.

I'd rather be seated between RockTardHen1985 and TFF in a crowded plane on a round the world flight than live in those places.

No, it's Gods way of telling you to go to the Breeders Cup.
