One sure would be lead to believe that this is a one horse race. <br /><br />Something just doesn't seem right if they are selected again? Maybe the three men, or whatvere forces are pushing a decision on this thing, will weigh in on more than just a phony franchise fee number! We'll see soon enough.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-55859733890263350272009-05-11T08:41:00.000-04:002009-05-11T08:41:00.000-04:00Hard to guess what "motivates" Governor David Pate...Hard to guess what "motivates" Governor David Paterson in this VLT determination? I'm not sure this time he should let political markers that are being played lead him to another inferior decision. It's so obvious Governor what is happening in regards to this gaming franchise award. New Yorker's appreciate the fact that you can not see, but good sense and wisdom have nothing to do with eyesight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-41306919978563018172009-05-11T03:02:00.000-04:002009-05-11T03:02:00.000-04:00Who now doesn't believe Saturday Night Live's paro...Who now doesn't believe Saturday Night Live's parody of David Patterson as governor wasn't 100% accurate. His stupidity has nothing to do with his blindness. He does his best work when others can't see what he is doing, hence the blind leading the blind approach he is utilizing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-61061081874231233132009-05-09T19:44:00.000-04:002009-05-09T19:44:00.000-04:00Manny Ramirez is out for 50 games, but Patrick Bia...Manny Ramirez is out for 50 games, but Patrick Biancone is still playing ball. Ball Four, trained by Biancone won the Grade 2 Mervyn LeRoy Handicap.<br /><br />How many outs do they give in the game of racing?<br /><br />Biancone banned in Hong Kong, accused of cobra venom and contacting his staff while on suspension in the U.S. That makes at least two strikes, or two very big outs.Jim Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12868430639026487238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-20632843456741271842009-05-09T13:54:00.000-04:002009-05-09T13:54:00.000-04:00Alan, the only place you can get information on t...Alan, the only place you can get information on tHe state's most valuable pending contract is here! <br /><br />NYRA's bid using the old MGM plans and permits may be with Peeebles' announced solo bid, presuming the Ilitch deal with Major League Baseball wasn't kosher and moving the Shinnecocks too far west didn't pass muster in Washington D.C.? Your guess is as good as mine as to how Peebles is treated for leaving the DelNorth fold.<br /><br />Penn National was a proposed bidder at some point early on during the new Spitzer bids, right after he threw out Pataki's work in early 2007. They didn't make the final round. <br /><br />I'll be curious to see who shows up in the Wynn bid, if indeed it is any of his former Excelsior partners. <br /><br />Aqueduct Entertainment must be the mystery group that several have mentioned. I like the name, so we'll see.<br /><br />The StaTe can't keep the whole thing to themselves, or can they?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-74390203448106929562009-05-09T13:47:00.000-04:002009-05-09T13:47:00.000-04:00I want to lodge a claim of foul.
