NYRA bans Eric Guillot

Two things can be true at the same time and if you can't disseminate the context of each without conflating it's ok with me.

Best way to solve this is crisis is to bring the 2 parties together and have them sit down and talk about there differences privately. That could be a first step in helping to eliminate racism in the sport. That goes for all of America, lets follow the lead of a great man Mr. King. (Rodney)

"Can't we all just get along?"



Forget it, stupid idea.

I am not accusing you of that cause I don’t know you but that’s how it comes off, as if in even the slightest way, it’s not so bad cause it’s only Rudolph.

A non-buffoon could have named the horse OFERSINCEGIACOMO if the point was to poke fun at his handicapping skills. Even I would have chuckled at that.

And all the on-air talent at TVG gets flamed but I don't hear about or see (and I spent too long on the names database to see if I'm way off) horses named MUTE SCHRUPP, or MUTE MATT. Never mind names that would stab at their ethnic identities.

True on both observations. I would classify Rudolf as more of a "personality" than analyst which is the problem with TVG. Too many personalities and I would easily cut 50% of them. With so many knowledgeable people who could actually give good on-air advice what they do is a disservice to racing. Thankfully, there is a mute button.

Time for some new blood.
