I've listened to a couple of the other weekend shows a few times. There's no comparison. Steve and his program are the best of the group. And it's not even close.

That show is a joke. Professional as heck, but way off base as to what the horse player/fan wants to hear on the day of a Triple Crown Race - which for the first half hour the first two legs has been trotters. No lie. I think they might actually open every show with this. And I understand paying the bills and I'm sure there is some tie to advertising, but come on. You have to at least pretend to care about your audience just a little bit. And the trotters is usually followed up with some sort of taped piece - never any real handicapping/racing "discussion" like you get on ATTAB. Steve/JJ's show is superior in every single way and it would be a shame to see it go away.

The whole reason I got Sirius was for ATRAB (I despise Howard Stern -- never listened to him, never ever, not once) and this was way before I even knew this site existed. Ditto on the email campaign idea, if it will help. Sorry to hear about JJ's departure -- I'll sure miss his inimitable style.

Nothing a few phony phone calls can't fix. Maybe have morty on as a guest from time to time, kinda like Gilbert Gottfried on the Stern show.

This news sucks, love this show. JJ and Steve have done a wonderful job. My hour commute will not be the same. I always listen on my IPOD downloaded from ITunes. I'm new to the game, and have also learned more about the horses from ATRAB. So is JJ gone to Brazil for good?

Thanks..
Cannot begin to tell everyone how much I appreciate their very generous, supportive comments and compliments.
Gus (Bogey) suggested me to the show, and I was provided a great opportunity by JJ and Samm 18 months ago. I thank them endlesslessly for their dedication, and will do my utmost to continue things. Show is not going anywhere immediately..

Steve,
If Sirius does not pick you up when the whole Sirius / XM things is done with than I know of at least one cancellation of their service. I usually catch some of the show on my ride home and the balance on my way to work the next morning. SOmetimes I get the last hour twice but that is OK, it is usually entertaining. I immensely enjoy the show and your insights into the game. I truly look forward meeting you either Saturday at the Belmont or at the Carolina Grill in Saratoga this summer. I have been listening to the show since I stumbled upon it late last fall, in fact it is the ONLY reason I still subscribe to Sirius. I will miss JJ and his "insiders" perspective but lets face it, it is the Bykster that makes the show. Keep up the good work for as long as you care to, knowing that we stand behind you. Like everyone one else said just let us know if there is anything we can do to support you with the "suits" at Sirius. HH

I remember and miss the shows in Chicago with Connaughton and Super Jock. I realy miss the replays in Detroit on Ch 62 which came on right after Big City News. Then again I miss being 30 years younger. Randy Moss is very good. But he does what, 22 minutes a week? ATRAB's doing 15 hours. Steve is the best I've seen or heard. Notwithstanding his admission of not being aware that Maryland My Maryland is based on the German carol O Tannebaum.
