Gotta get that slots license money in hand so he can turn around and sell Laurel and Pimlico once he has the license procured.

It will be fun to see just how moronic and ignorant MD state leaders will be on this one. Then again, it would simply be business as usual.

Yeah, it sucks, but the models giving out the samples at GP weren't that bad. They were having a "Miss Frank's Energy" contest.

Why not sell the naming rights of the racetracks to big corporations. Instead of calling it Santa Anita Park call it Pampers Park and call Laurel, Ben Gay Downs.

Just as long as they don't have Alpo.....

The Stl Rams went as far as to have the National Anthem brought to you by Boeing.

"Ladies and gentlement Boeing would ask that you please rise for the playing of our nation's anthem"

something like that. I had to sell my PSL/ season tickets. I just couldn't take all the commercials during the game. That and they let all the good players go. "it's too expensive to win the Super Bowl"

Many companies that get the naming rights of stadiums go bankrupt. So, if you notice that a stadium in your area is now named after a company... sell all the stock you have in them.
