The past few weeks have been a depressing time to read the Board. Not because I disagree with much of what has been posted- to the contrary, it is because I do agree. Yet, with rare exception, nobody has come out and proclaimed they will cease betting, notwithstanding the overwhelming conclusion reached on this Board and elsewhere that the game is rigged and has been for some time. If we are being honest,the posters on this Board and handicappers generally are fools to keep pumping dollars into a rigged system. While human beings are guilty of rationalizing their behavior, particularly when it comes to gambling i.e. it’s fun, I do ok, etc etc, the game is hard enough without taking on crooks and cheats. The only solution— the only solution-is a mass boycott of the betting windows- over a long important racing weekend. (I would nominate Frank D to take the lead but choose to remain on his good side). This suggestion- which will likely fall on many deaf ears- gives me no pleasure since TGJB is a friend and a boycott just ain’t good for his business. As someone else posted, continuing to bet in to the game as it is currently constituted is the definition of insanity— doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Nothing will change until the folks who are the engine- the bettors- are heard loudly and clearly.
