I surely have NO INTEREST in betting MVR at the moment and I imagine others feel the same. I just don't get it...NFL, MLB the integrity of the game is paramount and with us it seems like we are simply on autopilot 95% of the time.
The integrity of the NFL is paramount? The National Football League you mean? That's hysterical. The one Roger Goodall commissions?

MLB.. This Major League Baseball? http://www.baltimoresun.com/business...104-story.html

NBA is a league, right? http://deadspin.com/5392067/excerpts...nt-you-to-read

FIFA? http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/26/sp...come.html?_r=0

Olympic Organizing Committee? NCAA? What else you want?

But racing is on auto-pilot because the Identifier missed a horse in a nickel claimer at one of the most obscure tracks in the country?
