On occasion when I leave work I hear Michelle Yu and hearing her talking about harness races as if she has any clue is an absolute joke.

Absolutely correct.................when Schrupp works with folks other than Bray he is tolerable (barely) but lately anytime he is with Bray the two of them are complete idiots. HRTV gets it, HORSE RACING people watch the show...............they try to have SOME intelligent conversation. TVG is working towards being broadcast from a basement in Aurora, IL and being sponsored by Stan Mikita's doughnuts. (except without the humor)
