Not at all....I'm saying that Steve is absolutely right in his argument that the politicians phucked this up and languished for 10+ years. I don't think Rich's piece is lazy and that he misunderstands the process. He's saying the money is rolling in, purses are skyrocketing, so let's get on this now as the sport continues to dawdle. We can all Monday morning QB and say look what they've missed for a decade....Obviously a colossal blunder. Eng is saying NYRA and the state should be proactive since things have turned positive.
