Well now we have horsemen in NY who support a higher takeout. But these same people believe "a lower takeout will lead to higher handle in the long run". However, these people are looking out for themselves today and don't care about the future of the game one bit. Who is out there speaking for the players, no one , not this NTRA players committee, not the horsemen, not Steve Crist or DRF, no one. Everyone wants a lower takeout but no one is doing anything to lower it, they are actually trying to raise it!!! With the horsemen's support this bill has a good chance of making it which would be another knife in our backs but we be back(maybe).
