Nothing better than mergers and compartmentalization to keep the utter incompetence flowing.

This is happening at all levels in our country. No one but the expert for the company in some nonsense micro issue can handle it. Pass the buck.

I'm, quite frankly, sick of it. If you're employed or partnered with a company that your company depends on to survive you should make every effort possible to know what your partners are doing.

To not have any worthwhile info on this issue is a travesty for a brisnet employee. Might as well get off the air and hit the golf course instead of deflecting an important question and promoting a bunch of crap people don't care about...especially if your ID is lost in the process of betting eleventy billion dollars to get a $10 comp and free pp's.

That's not fair. He didn't deflect anything since it wasn't brought up with him because I know it wasn't his responsibility to talk about it.

I dont have a Twinspires account, never signed up for one. I have a Brisnet/old Brisbet account. I got a letter.

So I assume if you are a Brisbet customer you are hacked as well, so its not just Twinspires but ALL former Brisbet account holders?

Fair enough. Still doesn't change my belief that compartmentalization is making things far worse.

It's also disconcerting someone that speaks to the media wouldn't have anything worthwhile or reassuring to say on such an important issue that has supposedly trickled over to his company.

Just disappointed in the whole deal and how CDI and Bris are managing it.

I agree. Brisnet and Twin Spires are both parts of CDI. They are the same company. Ed could, if he wanted to, speak to this issue.

Either way, Steve, perhaps you could get someone on to address this issue. It is a major story.

IMHO....If they think not addressing it is the best course of action, they are wrong. There aren't that many of us horseplayers out there and most of us seem to have been involved. I don't monitor other Internet Boards, but I would guess it's a topic there too. I will be switching to Xpressbet, even though I like TS layout and PP's better.

Im truly concerned here in Texas. I believe TS is my only option for on-line wagering. I have not received a letter as of 9/8 so not sure what is going on. My option would be Sam Houston s-casting and that would limit my participation quite a bit. If anyone knows of another site that is offering on-line betting for Texas, please let em know.

You really think that someone like Ed, who isn't specifically an employee of Twin Spires, could talk extemporaneously about a topic like this? Then you've never worked for a corporation. I'd guess he'd have been fired before hanging up the phone.

I'll have an appropriate representative on to talk about it.
