This other stuff is superfluous...and I never stated NYRA was a step up from TVG, but now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure it is.

I believe NYRA is on the come and TVG is stagnant, JMHO.
I will also say that y'all would be shocked at the lack of correlation between talent $$ and what channel they're on.

Was I wrong? Maybe- but we don't know all the facts on the reason he left. First I've noticed that you edit my tongue n cheek humor attempts as if I was serious. Why? Was m joking about him knocking boots that awful? I was joking. You and some people reading this are wound to tight. I was joking about his scandal. But when I see a guy with a somewhat checkered past with affairs and getting sued for unpaid bills just up and leave a network that's easily accessible thru many cable and satellite providers switch to a broadcast that's limited it makes me wonder. I love this site and it's got good info. I apologize if I've offended you or others reading this.

The guy was doing studio work for nationally televised college football, and probably will continue if I had to guess. He would seem to have a lot more going for him than being tight with TA.

Ive seen him doing studio work for college basketball also. This is a perfect off season gig.

Greg Wolf is a super nice guy. I got to know him just as an acquaintance when I lived in SoCal. As to his broadcasting career, he was doing UCLA football while in college if I remember right. He's done a lot of small stuff to move up. He's paid his dues

Greg Wolf was part of a team that, clearly, made TVG number one in the ADW space. He is a solid broadcaster who has done his job. He does his research but understands his role. He allows the experts to do their job. That is a talent that is largely overlooked these days. He has a certain "boy next door" charm that makes him easy to watch. He controls the talent and makes for a longer than normal viewing experience. He seems like a decent guy. NYRA looks like they are trying to recreate the situation that carried TVG across the finish line first.

todd schrumpf should also be added for his keen insight and antics that make him the number 1 man at tvg,in addition he has a winner every 3 months too.
