a very poorly written article.

Quote:

The winning horse in Race 4 on Thursday was named Tebowing.

"I sat down to watch the race, and I swear, you'd have to look at the replay. It was a head bob for the win," Tice said. "I didn't know if I won, took second or whatever.

Tebowing won by a widening length.

He must mean the last race where the horse got up by a head.

After returning to the Seattle area, where his home is undergoing a major renovation, Tice said he called his wife, who was traveling in Minnesota, to inform her he wanted to pull $200 from their bank account to put into his online account to place a bet.

He better make money betting because he sucked as coach. He was the same idiot who was fined by the NFL for scalping Super Bowl tiks when he was the Vikes head coach.....loved it when they made him the O coordinator for the Bears ....as a Packer fan I could pencil in 2 W's

Just checked on Xpress, WA has no betting restrictions.

It is just remarkable that 15 states (incl DC) have NO ACCOUNT WAGERING in the 21st century.

States rights?

states rights in many things is a myth anymore. it's like zeus, people used to follow that. they may as well just make everything legal all over the country, and be done with it.
that way i won't live in a stupid dry county anymore. and everyone i talk to wants it done away with, but no one wants to have their name out there on any official ballot. cowards.

Texas is illegal to bet on any pari-mutual gaming except at a track or OTB, CDI has enough interest and Balls to have an injunction filed to allow Texas betters to play on-line, it will drag throught the courts for awhile....thing is, only Twinspires (CDI) does it. No DRF, ExpressBets, nada

So Texas...send all your gambing money to LA. bunch of dipsh#t$

That would suck...and I only started really betting again once they opened a new OTB by my house, if not it was a 25 minute drive, cant do that. It still sucks.
