It is not the extra dollar, it is the fact that they have now raised the price twice within the last year or so and have given you less for what you are paying for as if you don't notice. I am sure this is a prelude to raising the overall price for every day, but I guess that is the cost of being a horseplayer.

Watchmaker held them up for a HUGE salary bump. He was an Unrestricted free agent and the bidding went wild for his services. Blame it on WATCH! Plus they have had to get a proof reader assistant to check his work since his work typically is full of mistakes. KIDDING sort of

Well, Beyer's crew did have to make all those adjustments to the polytrack BSFs.
