I think the key to the whole deal is the involvement they want Amy Zimmerman to have. She is the top producer in the Thoroughbred industry today and she, and only she could make this work. She is the absolute best in the business and time will tell if TVG utilizes her. It's simple, if they do, they can succeed, if they don't they will certainly fail.

I love TVG. Aren't they succeeding now?

"if they don't they will certainly fail". Moving forward, what exactly would be defined as failure?

TVG is doomed if they don't add Westrock Coffee as a sponsor. I want to see Westrock Coffee bags in studio and on-track...in standard definition.

I feel bad for the people who were affected by the announcement today. I really enjoyed their programming.

Oddly, there is no mention of any changes on HRTV's website. It looks the same that it has for years.

Not sure what this means yet but I will miss the variety of horse sports HRTV offers assuming it changes but the one thing I will not stand for is more Todd Schrupp . . . he makes me ill. Too bad since all change is not positive . . . but lets wait and see.

Hoover by far the most talented and useful guy on HRTV. What a joke.

I look at the programming today on HRTV and the website says no AQU, GP, or SA. Frontier does not carry TVG. Uverse got rid of that channel a while ago. Looks like I am paying extra dough for the "B" tracks. Not for long.

Real happy with that. Will never open a wagering acct with TVG no matter what. Hope the Internet and Twinspires are running smooth today.

Your blaming TVG because HRTV was not making enough money and decided to put themselves on the market?
