The sport is exciting enough if the stakesholders in the sport give people a chance to experience it. <br /><br />I merely pointed out the way they make the case, academically. I agree with NJ Governor Christie, racing needs to learn how to be self-substaining.That Blog Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15487597769210721585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560898823512627114.post-15936589217868932832010-02-15T16:06:06.888-05:002010-02-15T16:06:06.888-05:00Pacinguy, what is really sad about the state of ho...Pacinguy, what is really sad about the state of horse racing today is that it needs to come up with more inventive ways to subsidize itself outside of what it really is, which is a game of chance, and it should do well on that alone because people love to gamble....they just want a fair shake.Cangamblehttp://www.cangamble.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560898823512627114.post-51562651125684303552010-02-15T08:35:28.413-05:002010-02-15T08:35:28.413-05:00The horsemen have been bringing up the fact that r...The horsemen have been bringing up the fact that racing keeps farms farming and provides for open space. Perhaps they need to emphasize it more as you suggest. <br /><br />Here may be an angle on the green angle they can use. Right now there is a program called Green Acres which buys up land to keep it green. Taxpayer money funds this. Perhaps arguing it keeps open space without costing the state any tax money is the way to go.That Blog Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15487597769210721585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560898823512627114.post-49822011540802465582010-02-14T21:43:27.501-05:002010-02-14T21:43:27.501-05:00I don't know about Jersey, but my local tracks...I don't know about Jersey, but my local tracks give the stuff mucked from stalls to mushroom farms who grow icky fungi in it.
