I have no idea what this thread is about, but I have no doubt what Andy is about. I haven't forgotten why he disappeared from here - for damn good reason. No he's back with an attitude. Must be old Roger is training him now.

He brings nothing to the table but his own agendas.

But his own agendas seem to be pro horseplayer, is that a bad thing?

Hey Tom! The phrase dip sh+t comes to mind. Work on that.

Mussolini supposedly made the trains run on time too, but didn't make him a good guy.

I suspect this thread is about HRTV vs TVG.

I get them both on Dish and have to say they just have a different mindset, not that one is better than the other.

HRTV has announcers that are generally from experience on the backstretch - trainers and jockeys and such. They bring an interesting perspective of horses, trainers, plans, intentions and such.

TVG has announcers that are generally public selectors or horse bettors. They spend more time about structuring tickets and sometimes saying why the favorite is not that good. I can't even remember the number of PK3/4 tickets they have shown for under $50 that won and returned over $1500.

If HRTV wants a drastic change, they need to change their personel - which I feel would be bad, because they have an interesting (to me) perspective.

Still not sure what this thread is about except for Andy to bash P.A.?

TVG mentions gambling because they own their own ADW.
HRTV does not even though Twinspires and Expressbet are promoted by them. HRTV shows more than horseracing and I have never heard anyone say they don't like the HRTV hosts. Maybe I missed the point?

So now we have two threads about nothing.

And, for the record, it is dipsh+t, one word, not a phrase.
Funny how that word came to mind when I saw this thread.
