In other words he was a total failure at what he was hired to do. Where do you get this kind of work? Six months or so and I'll be just fine.affirmednyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02092849597705514117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-69741362093792854322011-01-05T16:29:44.690-05:002011-01-05T16:29:44.690-05:00yeah I thought you were talking about a mork &...yeah I thought you were talking about a mork & mindy character or something.

Skeptical of the 16k fig but if Belmont was crowded I am certain they had a nice crowd at Big A.<br /><br />Just wait until Belmont!<br /><br />We always suspected that NYCOTB was killing NYRA and now we are beginning to see some proof. <br /><br />So now that Albany sees that Racing can survive without NYCOTB's "contribution" you can bet they will try to resurrect the dead, which would be a real shame.Figlessnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-49267311654383423092011-01-04T08:17:21.653-05:002011-01-04T08:17:21.653-05:00They can't physically fit 16,000 people into t...They can't physically fit 16,000 people into that space!alannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-4870559040799910792011-01-04T07:19:08.239-05:002011-01-04T07:19:08.239-05:00I usually get more than one calendar and drop them...I usually get more than one calendar and drop them off in the car before the festivities begin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-69052004135331164812011-01-04T06:03:59.129-05:002011-01-04T06:03:59.129-05:00Alan, I did a double-take, too, when I saw that at...Alan, I did a double-take, too, when I saw that attendance - but with free attendance, I can't see how spinning for calendars would have affected it. You walked in through the turnstile, then went and bought calendars for $2 at a separate table. The place did seem pretty crowded - more than I've ever seen it - but I'd be curious to know how attendance was determined.Teresahttp://www.brooklynbackstretch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-45772013312319186772011-01-04T00:33:44.990-05:002011-01-04T00:33:44.990-05:00Alan, you get yourself something nice for the holi...Alan, you get yourself something nice for the holidays with all that Blame cash?
