Back from an extended 'vacation' for all those who've been asking where 'emp' has hidden out.

Tomorrow is a MIGHTY BIG DAY IN ILLINOIS HARNESS RACING.

Go Bears! Beat Farve and 'The Pack' and show these Cheeseheads who's the boss!

Since when is Sunday a big day in Illinois Harness Racing?

HORSEMEN'S
MEETING  
Sunday, December 4, 2005, 12:00 p.m.
Holiday Inn Select
(I 80 & Harlem Avenue)
18501 S. Harlem Avenue
in Tinley Park
Please try to attend this important meeting to
discuss updates on the contract negotiations.

Call the IHHA Hotline at (888) 601-7223 for
updates or visit our web site at

EMP, please beg them to sign a contract for whatever the Johnston's offer. I can't afford a strike. I need action 7 days a week. I want to handicap races to bet on and don't care if the purses are $500. 

[SUPERMAN]

             

             Spineless IHHA board and spineless horseman that are" ALL BUSTED" will vote to race even if its for $1,000 Sports Creek purses mark my words.

 Marty will tell everyone to race because things might change in Springfield and will get slots. LIES-LIES-LIES. Every year the same old "BULL-SHIT" !!!!!

The IHHA BOARD should be put in a firing squad if they sell the horseman out again.

Superman, I heard that a splinter group is prepared to throw rotten tomatoes at you if you try to hijack the meeting.  Make sure your overalls are stainproof  TC.  P.S.  The Holiday Inn will have a spitoon next to your seat per your request.

I can't help but think that the reps in Springfield who are unfamiliar with racing will look at a signed contract as a sign that the industry doesn't need help.  If the horsemen are still racing,  how much of a strain can it be?  Thats what they will ask anyone who tries to get them on board to support slots/poker rooms.  We know the difference,  but will they?

Hit the nail on the head.
Tough spot to be in.
