Unless you want state/federal government interfearing in the management of the game even more, the work of TRPB and ARCI needs to be supported. The same people carrying on about 'past posting' would do well to more widely support the work of TRPB/ARCI. They're the ones working hardest to 'get it right'.

Hear hear.. By the logic of some, it seems that, to avoid potential negative PR, they would prefer horseplayers quietly get screwed than have governing bodies make visible efforts to clean things up..

Yeah, that too.
Listen, I'm not saying we need to indict the Matties family based on this alone, and my comments from earlier were tongue-in-cheek, but I really hope that those of you opposing this action don't think that this came out of the blue. This is something that has been a long time coming in New York.
