Despite The Lack of TV Coverage

[Linny]

Obviously we do more business by showing the races so we will show as many as we can. The point is that even "fans" who are not really bettors can still view all of our races, no strings attached.

We are required by law to show NYRA live and any additional simulcasts on a replay basis around the NY feed. In addition to the races from Belmont we are expected to also show the paddock report and post parade and any "will pays" leaving us with scant little time to devote to non NY racing.

I realize that we don't have to worry about squeezing racing in around cooking or football but the original post was to remind at least those people in the Capital viewing area that we will in fact be showing these events.

As for "personalities" what can I say? We all have preferences. I do get out to branches and was at the track and or a branch for almost every race run at Saratoga. I do hear it all. Not everyone is going to like every personality. Sometimes it's a disagreement with a handicapping style, sometimes is just the voice or demeanor that a viewer doesn't like.
I've had people walk up to me and say "I HATE MR. X!! He's this and that and he's terrible, get him off the air!" Five minutes later I hear "Mr X is great! You need 3 more just like him!"
