The Geary interview was like wading through a river filled with b.ullshit.

He didn't buy Ellis Park to make money? Really? Does he really expect for the public to believe that his reason for buying Ellis Park was for "the love of the game"?

Say what you want about Churchill, and I absolutely despise them, but at least they didn't break the tellers union up in the seven years they owned the joint, isolated track regulars all the while threatening to shut the place down.

Does this guy really love the game as much as the possibility of making a profit? Lets be real here...he's worth over $100 million. In interest alone off of that stack he can keep Ellis open.

His 3 years of ownership have been nothing short of a disaster and I hope he sells the place instead of shutting it down like a p.ussy. Take a loss and move on.
