The no host format is foolish, either do
it (the channel) correctly or don't do it at all.
It isn't respectful to the people that watch and play.
I know years back there was an NFL game with no announcers, but it was a one shot deal for fun really. This isn't fun and it is low class.
If you (TVG) want to be off the air Monday and Tuesday because you can't afford it I'd repect that a whole lot more.

i admit i like the soundtrack that they play, nice mix of old and old. I lke fantasy by earth wind and fire and I like some of the newer stuff like game of love.
not disrespectful at all. if you are more into the music then you are the horses, you have bigger problems anyway
every song i have heard them play is extremely, extremely main stream and pretty much accepted as being extremely mainstream.
if the music bothers you that much there always is the adw feed.

Guess when they got complaints the first time, they changed up the music selection. I thought that I heard Rich P. may be back on Monday and Tuesday in the new year

TVG is muting the track announcers now?
I don't think so.
The only thing disrepectful here is not showing races live so some idiot can detail a bet that doesn't go off for hours. It is disrespecting every bettor of every race that is tape delayed.
lets listen to the can't make it as a bettor crowd giving out betting advice while live races are going off.

If this frustrates you so much, why not buy a computer, sign up for an ADW and watch the races on line? Seems like you hate TVG so this would solve all of your problems, no?

I wish the TVG would throw a little Dave Brubeck into the mixer. Follow it up with a little Hard Bop...and go from there. Remember the target audience- the over 50 crowd.
