hey, the media plays him off as some kind of hero. so right there, i was skeptical. If ny gets its head out (of its ass) NYRA is in position to corner summer racing because these morons will ruin it for NJ. i knew some of these tracks would eventually go under but i never thought a circuit as big as monmouth would be first. For horse racing its fight or flight time.....looks like New jersey is flighting.........this is why i called and wrote all my representatives last spring....i did not want them to think like these morons....saratoga springs would be ruined!

Christie is a fat fvck and a fat waste of life who is the worse thing that could have happened to our state from his decisions on racing, gambling, and Atlantic City to other political decisions this fat moron is going to ruin racing and great intake opportunities for our state to make up the deficit. He should go fatten up on a few more cheeseburgers.

Wow, I hope this doesn't happen. Living in Denver now but practically grew up at Monmouth Park. Last year was the first Haskell I missed since I was 15. Went every weekend in the summer. After this summers successes I thought they would be clear. The last thing that area needs is more planned communities filled with three elevations of the same shi**y houses. Glad I left but will be sad to see this happen.

where is our leader(s)?

right now it's tom luchento and john forbes. we need LOUDER voices.

and get some time on main stream TV news shows and terrestial radio to state the facts.
also some commercials would be nice.

old cliche'...the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

He is eliminating jobs, racing and cutbacks everywhere. Once he gets his wish then he'll bail for a Presidency run. Reading the news about Charles Rangel I wish they would go back and punish the past governors who supposedly ripped this state off. Someone needs to be accountable. While all of this happening and we can't even get a tunnel built into New York our President is off to India? I guess it our problem

He started this mess by saddling the NJSEA with the Xanadu fiasco. They hommorage money over that boondoggle and politco patronage jobs, waste, etc. and horse racing is the scapegoat.

I've never been the letter writing, phone calling, protest type, but when they start messing with my horse racing or fishing then I get fired up. I just want a few hours a week to relax; a diversion. And this state has to kill everything enjoyable about it.
