Some people. What is that 10 of the 20 people that are watching? Without Kenny Mayne there yesterday it was painful to listen to the coverage.

Moss and Jenine Edwards are great.

Hank may be a lousy analyst....but he's a man of the people...as evidence by all the cheering.

the more camera time for miss edwards, the better.

she filled out those jeans pretty nicely when she did that bit a few weeks ago about the violette barn in the morning.

She looks great on a small tv, but on a large screen she looks pretty tough. Veins popping out of her neck are sort of scary. If we just want something nice to look at I prefer the TVG girl.

When they do west coast broadcasts they usually have Jay Privman in place of Hank. They should just use a noted east coast DRF handicapper instead of the Hammer. Actually, why do they need anybody to replace him at all? I find his role meaningless. He's not bad when he does his football picks in the early Sunday morns, but maybe that's just comparing it to the drivel he puts out for racing. Watching him take five minutes to explain and justify his Travers' selection was painful.

all those guys were cheering b/c hank probably just did a keg stand with them minutes before hand. I would hate to sit next to him during a taping, all the spitting and sweating all over the place. He struggles over the simplest phrases and questions. He has almost a longer delay than Larry Merchant.. "Champ........... how did................ you......................win.......... this fight...................tonight?"

Mayne is the color, im not a fan but it looks like he's in for the long hall. Bailey brings the hands on, and Moss brings the gambling/breeding/racing knowledge to the show. Jeanine is the "skirt" (sorry ladies), and she seems like she has a pretty good head on her shoulder when it comes to horses.

Bottom line, Moss is the glue who keeps the show going. I also like what ESPN has done adding the MPH to running order during the race. It's a small step, but i noticed it

My .25 cents,

I think Hank Goldberg is akin to Joe Morgan or a Tim McCarver calling a baseball game. Morons with verbal dysentery that without fail produce discussions such as this. And that's how the Bristol mafia keeps you thinking and talking about them.

Hank Goldberg is a fat idiot.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Is that why the people love him so?

I liked that too, and the yardage lines...300 yds, 100 yds.
Best thing is that it's in HD ! Very....

I see no need to replace Edwards or Moss.
I do, however, think that there are hundreds of people on DT alone that would be an upgrade over Goldberg.
