There is a two minute preview on the Video page...It looks ridiculously stupid, but I am no fan of reality TV, so I hope I am wrong.

I do know a few people who would be great on TV.

And Jimmy is a super choice for Host.
I guess but, I think they're all on this site.

Spoke to Benny for about 20 minutes. Very nice guy who knows something about the sport and is gonna do his (their) best to attract new people to the sport.

May 27th auditions at Del Mar.

I guess I will update on this thread as I talk to him more and get more news about what's going on.

From the short video, it looks as if they've already selected their contestants.

They may have a couple but doubt they would be doing a casting call at Del Mar on the 27th. They've had over 700 people respond as of yesterday

The term "Professional" they're using isn't in stone like they're gonna check you r tax return. Looking for competent handicappers who will make good TV and speak to a younger crowd.

They rejected the best person they could have had over something stupid. I like the guy running it cuz he has good intentions but I'm not sure he understands what it REALLY takes to attract gamblers to the sport.
