I guess the bright side is they still let you wager on some tracks, they I think a full boycott is in order of Ill racing.
So what you are saying is that CDI which has been one of the leading proponents of increasing the price of the signal decided to support a law that would do the opposite?

Or that the AZ horseman or tracks have enough pull to influence a US senator?

Uh ok.

Your doing this just to be a pain right?

You really think that Kyl had anything to do with AZ House Bill 1040? How could he? I never mentioned Kyl.

They had enough pull though to influence the vote in the AZ legislature. Do you know what business the owner of TuP came from, where he got his money? Think Las Vegas in the 50's.

I have no clue what went on in Ill, but I can tell you in Az all the horseman and the track said how they did not want to curtail the internet wagering, blah blah but behind the scenes they were pushing it, this is not a guess on my part.
