I've been arguing with people since this thing was announced that still don't get it, one former newspaper writer included. The so called drop in blended take (whatever the hell that is....) was not true either.

Funny thing was the last couple years since rennovation, I seemed to be one of the few that still said good things about the place. Now people are trying to find reasons why its so great including the strung out looking handicapping chick that always flips her hair before she speaks.....

Best bait and switch I ever saw. They even got the HANA guys in their corner for "promised" future changes. Of course the fact that management at GP has changed 3 times in the last 3 years may derail that a bit.....

Now sacred Keeneland is giving the bettor "what he wants". No bad words will be said about this one I'm sure. Keeneland does no wrong (well there was that sweat shirt sample I saw once from their gift shop that had the track's name spelled "keenland". No wonder they couldn't move that one....). Hell Keeneland is so great that Secretariat won the Belmont Stakes there....

I'm only ranting here because my office is about 50 degrees right now and it is giving me warmth...but then again everything above is true
