You don't want to watch races run on that evil rubber. Do you?

The Mid-Atlantic group is increasingly going to be without signals as they obstinately refuse to move off the lowball number they pay the Hosts. FG, CD, and now Santa Anita and Gulfstream then Oaklawn and Golden Gate by mid-January.

They are 100% in the wrong with their position, and hopefully their customers will begin to complain and get them to move.

Several major winter tracks may not be available to bettors on TVG unless TVG and TrackNet settle a lawsuit by Christmas Day.

Any chance on interviewing someone from Mid Atlantic Group on ATR? Just make believe they will be voting for Zenyetta as HOY

The guy from Mid-Atlantic is Marty Lieberman. He might come on. They're being ridiculous considering they haven't taken any increases in at least 4 years on the big track signals in question.

Their hardball stance doesn't appear to be working and as we progress down the derby trail their customers will become more and more pissed. But it really doesn't seem like they care very much. They probably just feel the handle will moved to other tracks that they are covering. Why does this industry still act like it is the 1960's and they have no competition?

Patent law is incomprehensible enough without bringing foreigners into it. You can stick a fork in TVG; I laugh every time I hear "America's horse-racing network."

Default Why in the Hell!

Why in the hell can I not bet, Santa Anita, Fair Grounds, and now they are saying Gulfstream.

Living close to three States, New Jersey, Delaware and Phillly I can not bet any of these three tracks at their OTB. I sure in the hell don't want to hear anything about their handle being down.

Maybe when ATR comes back Steve can get to the bottom of this Bull **** !

I wrote to the email addy for my 4Njbets account twice before I finally got a BS response
"hi thank you for your email and we understand your frustration. The
mid-atlantic cooperative is currently in negotiations with track net
media to settle the dispute. Again its not just us not offering it its
the mid-atlantic region thank you
"

I could not find an email address directly for Dennis Dowd but today sent an email to him thru the NJSEA public relations email address.

It's extremely frustrating that we can't bet thru other sites from home and can't even travel drive 10 minutes over to Monmouth Park or 30 minutes up to Favorites in Woodbridge.

Everything they do is nothing more that a bandaid and it's still bleeding. Too bad, the game cant be replaced with other gaming as far as I'm concerned.
