One classic exchange was when Shapiro said that Santa Anita hasn't come to the board with any kind of request to move over to Hollywood and Stein said something like "they didn't come to the board with a request to have to install this stuff either but yet you made them anyway." Shapiro also said the board didn't make the decision for each individual track as to which company they had to go with when then installed the tracks to which Stein reminded him that the board didn't give them much time to do much studying first.

Stein said that all three surfaces down here suck and said that in his talking with his fellow horsemen, he hears far different than what is printed in the papers.

How can you respect this guy's opinion on management of anything? He has destroyed his own health by gaining and losing thousands of pounds in one single lifetime. You sure that guy is still alive? Anybody who wants to go back to dirt doesn't give a **** about these animals.That much I know.You can try to justify it 20 different ways,but in the end ,you really don't give a **** about whether horses break down.If you did,then this subject(going back to dirt) wouldn't be on your mind.King,you're the same guy who admitted you attend dogfights.You are trash,to me,and I have stated that to you repeatedly.
