You could literally take a bum off his park bench, put him in a suit, put a fake degree on his office wall, and he would do a better job than this guy.

This is quite true

Evans not only has been a far worse racing leader than Meeker but he is destructive for the sport. He initially masqueraded as a "horseman" and yet virtually every move he makes pushes the sport further down the totem pole. His speech about less racing the other day on top of this kind of legitimizes the rumors that I have been hearing for quite awhile. That CD will ask to conduct about 30 total days of racing in 2012. 18 in the spring and 12 in the fall is what I have been told. Of course there will be major kickback from the horseman and KHRA but Evans wants to race as little as possible.

Hard to believe that people actually thought that NYRA's management was bad for the game not so long ago.
