The ADW situation taught me that I am not as big a degenerate as I thought I was. It was quite easy for me to not gamble because the tracks I normally played were not available to me. I found other things to do this summer to keep me busy.

That should be scary to the industry.

I learned that the Fairgrounds has a really long stretch and I should have listened to FGfan.

Tin Cup Chalice going to Japan is not an example of staying conservative.

I believed my eyes when they told me he should not go.
