Louisiana is one of the few states that boast 4 thoroughbred tracks.

Not to mention the other assets of the state -- including the fine programs at Loyola and Tulane.

The state took the brunt of a massive hurricane followed by the inept response from a corrupt national government. If Louisiana wasn't critical to the oil industry chances are people would still be drowning in flood waters today.

Say anything you want,but the Principle Secret part is fiction.The riding at Delta Downs that night by the inbreds was atrocious.It was the worst I have seen all year,and that was the question asked in the poll.I would feel better about their riding skills if I knew they were trying to set it up for the horses in the back of the field.There is no good option.They are bad,or crooked.Take your pick.
