General Harness Racing Discussion / Re: Delaware
« on: September 21, 2015, 07:15:07 AM »
I had fun yesterday and made $354 profit.  Got stupid in a few of the later races and bet too much and won too little - sometimes nothing - in those races.  Not a good combination.  Compared to previous years that I recall, the first three days look easier to bet.  Of course, my theories don't always work.  Wednesday and Thursday are always fun.

Cheap or not...good or bad...I'm going to bet every race because that is what I do on my vacation.  Every race...all week long.

16 races carded on Sunday.  All summer long I have spent Thursday evening handicapping the Saturday night Scioto Downs card. 

I think I am going through withdrawal waiting to get a program for Sunday.

There was a man who lost one of his arms in an accident.
He became very depressed because he loved to play golf. One day in deep despair, he decided to commit suicide.
He got on an elevator and went to the top of a building to jump off. He was standing on the ledge looking down when he saw a man down on the sidewalk skipping along, whooping and kicking up his heels.
He looked closer and saw that this man didn't have any arms at all. He started thinking, "What am I doing up here feeling sorry for myself? I still have one good arm to do things with." He thought "There goes a man with no arms skipping down the sidewalk so happy, and going on with his life."
He hurried down to the sidewalk and caught up with the man with no arms. He told him how glad he was to see him because he lost one of his arms and felt useless and was going to kill himself. He thanked him for saving his life and said he knew he could make it with one arm if the guy could go on with no arms. The man with no arms began dancing and whooping and kicking up his heels again.
He asked, "Why are you so happy anyway?"
He said, "I'm NOT happy, my balls itch."

Could be an issue with the web browser you;re using.  The site isn't too hot, but I see racing menus and entries/results tabs pretty visibly using Firefox.  Looks like they may even hace current odds.  Although it is 11 MTP for race 1 and then below that it says race 2 starts in 1 minute.

Probably should get that feed fixed.

I know it was a dam good time and the fact that I had both the tri and super in the Jug final for a mere $22 investment made me pretty skippy.

What a great day.  I'm biased because I made some good money.  There was a lot of leaning back in the bikes though.  Must be fines galore.

I just noticed Tetrick's picture on the USTA webpage, winning the Jugette, leaning back.

Wow.  Thanks for the info.  I was hoping to see Ronnie drive at Delaware and was wondering what happened.

OK...I give.  What happened to Ronnie Wrenn Jr. and Aaron Merriman?  They both were listed for several; drives at Delaware this week, and neither are there.  Unless I'm really tired from reading race programs (and that's a possibility), I though Ronnie was there early Sunday, then was off all his drives after that.  I can't remember if Aaron was there at all.

Nothing wrong with his last race, even though he was a very close second. The best horse did not win that race. My money says he'll win the Cane.

It is actually fun to wager at Scioto again.  Action picked up last year with the slots-infused purses and has continued this year.  For a number of years, I would only go there to play simulcast.  I play the live races now.  Pools are small, by comparison, but the exotic payouts are generally worthwhile.

General Harness Racing Discussion / Re: Amazing Racer movie released
« on: January 19, 2013, 07:12:03 PM »
I bought it the first day it was out.  Pretty bad movie.  The only reason I sat through the whole thing was that it was about harness racing, as opposed to other racing movies featuring thoroughbreds.  Save your money.

Holy shit.  Stephane Bouchard hits the board in the last race and blows up the tote board.

Always hard for me to hit anything at M1 until they have raced for two - three weeks.  Almost makes me glad I'm home with the flu and watching them on TV.  Otherwise, I'd probably be getting beat up tomorrow night.
