im willing to go along with the premise of the article if it means lowering take or raising/HAVING rebates.
What the business of racing fails to see is the new customers created by the online wagering sites. Rebates and a nice interface and all of a sudden new players want to try their hand...
The industry doesn't seem to think outside the box. Racing isn't even regularly broadcast on national television and it is 2007. The industry seems to view investments, rebates, lowering take as losses. No forward thinking. It's like the driver who only looks one foot in front of his car and then has to slam on his/her brakes at a red light.
There is only one solution to the racing industry. Slots.
just kidding
