Where there's smoke

Well Thursday Wynne ousts Paul Godfrey as chair of the OLG and all other board members resign, sounds like McGuinty and Duncan who exited the mess. Rogers had him as top dog of Rogers Center and Blue Jays and the stuff he pulled while in charge there would make the mob look like choir boys. I believe if racing is going to survive the right move would be to expand Woodbine's gaming with a full casino and hotel complex. Some may say why Woodbine?, because if Woodbine goes there goes racing. It's not allowing one player to get control, but a means to sustain a level of racing which we have come to expect. I would think if this would happen then a deal could be brokered to reinstate the Slots at Racetrack program. If this Toronto casino deal is dead as Mayor Rob Ford said in his interview on Thursday then before surrounding municipalities get their wheels turning to get casinos, they have to award this expanded gaming and casino to Woodbine Entertainment quickly. Lets hope they do the right thing.

Seems like every track that has expanded with casino and hotels have done very well..you'd think that the "higher ups" would see that..... expanding their customer base which puts more $$$$$$$$$ in their pockets...seems like a no brainer to me!!!!
