You probably could have just said that instead of "sex scandal" or whatever...not sure if cheating on your wife (allegedly...not sure any of this was actually proven) qualifies as a sex scandal in 2017.

And not sure how any of this relates to him leaving TVG...but whatever...it's the internet...

Irresponsible is putting it kindly.

First post, thought I would give this a shot.

I also just caught the last bit of the Keeneland thing. Remember thinking what's going on. Agree Todd has some sort of untouchable standing at TVG which I can't understand.

I liked Paul. Seems like a likable guy, Did a nice job on the handicapping. Definitely not the worst offender at being irritating and unprepared.

My take is he is a natural fit for NYRA. Since there will be an open spot I can see him at Saratoga in three weeks.

TVG needs to learn from their past mistakes and stop hiring uncharismatic, poorly-spoken, non-horse racing fans who they think have some vague sense of relevancy.

as for NYRA they're doing just fine, thank you.

Non-horse racing fans? If what I've seen of many of them when they're OFF camera, at the track, they are anything but.

That's also not what happened to Gino.

The big guys refuse to do interviews if they don't like something that's said or done. B.B. is the king of that tactic IMO

I can't see Lo Duca and Serling getting along for very long. Will probably be good TV for a while. I know I'll watch the NYRA feed.

Jballs I never claime Gino was involved in anything. Only that Gino left pretty quick and when Gino left he claimed he was moving to something that would be announced. The way Paul just up and left is obviously not good. If he moves to nyra I'd be shocked. 1. It's a lateral move at best. I'm convinced shannanigs are at play. I find it funny that on a horse racing forum people get all bent out of shape on something this silly. There have been multiple reports of Paul and young girls, multiple reports of him owing money and getting sued , and out of nowhere he says I quit. I just state I think he's got jammed up or jammed somebody up. I hope you will let me have my opinion. Thanks

If it was "not good" he wouldn't have been allowed to go on the air IMO. Pretty sure Gino was let go because of his position on the totem/talent pole.

It's one thing to say that you "think he got jammed up"...and it's something else to state that you are "convinced that shenanigans are at play" here. You can't be "convinced", unless you really KNOW.

This whisperlunch is a douche...plain and simple.

I know, that's an overused insult, but it fits.

As for the other person claiming a potential Paul L. + Andy S. pairing won't last long (I assume he thinks because they either don't like each other or have clashing personalities or whatever), I'd fade that bet in a heartbeat...
