I was going to say that, but you never know around here!

Speaking of TVG, I am getting to like Simon Bray - he has a lot of relevant commentary and he manages to deliver it with a severe handicap sitting next to him!

Toga deserves much better than Mike Joyce's rambling every day.
Even MATT! would be better.

Big weekend at Monmouth....TVG has two host on site covering the racing.
So first race overlaps with Laurel, and they show Laurel, and Monmouth on tape with no audio.

Funny stuff.
Matt is talking about all the people at Toga not being horseplayers and as he is, the camera pans by and a guy sitting at a table just behind the rail is almost tipping over backwards chugging a beer!

Weirdest thing I heard on TVG was Ron Ellis say the best view of the Golden Gate Bridge was the mens locker room in the turf club at Golden Gate Park.

I find schrupp extremely annoying. He/They constantly sing on air. I actually like Matt though.

In CT, Our OTBs are have optional telephone/online wagering accounts. They are great because they are 100 percent free and I can login and watch any track I want and any replay I want. So basically anybody in the state can just make an account and watch any race without putting money into it

Turned it on for the first time in ages during breakfast today.

Um, must be a bunch of non-players doing the post parade graphics else why would they not have the sire vertically over the dam just as how every person who has ever read a PP visualizes the data? Having the sire on the left and having to move your vision horizontally over a sea of blank, blue fill must be how the kidz like it eh?

Assuming they asked.

With all the good races today, they are showing the Lrl R4 on BOTH TVG and TVG2???????


Makes no sense at all.

Now they are showing GP 9 with no sounds on 1/2 screen while they babble about a Dmr race a few minutes away. And two who do nothing but ramble, not talk.

Terrible outfit.

Credit where it's due..today, Brad Free is talking about the first at FL and he says a good angle for this bottom level ($5K, 2lt) was any horse who had never lost at the level before. He thought the 3 and the 5 were bettable based on that.

Race comes in 5-3, 15-1, 17-1, and a $240 exacta.

I thought Mike Joyce was a babbler - but thei Lee Hazleton, Hazelwood? Is a non-stop fountain of useless babble. My gawd, the man never shuts up and he talks about stupid mindless nothings.

He is the poster boy for MUZAK backgrounds.
He brings nothing to the table.

These football gambling shows they debuted this morning are garbage!
That "Barstool Sports Advisors" show is a joke. It's your typical touts yelling about their locks and how much they know and blah blah blah.

Is the NFL Today show on CBS going to promote the feature at Belmont today?
Yeah, didn't think so.
This doesn't belong on TVG!

THIS

Get ready for TVG to start putting racing on the back burner as sport betting grows.

The only upside to the new shows is that it makes some of the regular TVG hosts looks semi-competent.

What toal drivel by total air heads!

I meant total drivel by the new talking footballs.

Britney is good.
Rich, Vic, Simon, all pros.

Matt has been a 10 year old for 30 years now.
Joyce and the guy at KD this week never shut up.
