Ack! 4 wins for everyone!

Don't get me wrong Max, it is a great place to enjoy the game, I've always had a blast at the stadium, even in five layers in the cold of winter. It just would be nice to see a concert, even the olympics here if there was a retractable roof. It's too late now for one, but even with the $200 mil more spent back then, this city would have made it back by now. As we all know, stadiums rarely make it past the payoff point before it gets demolished for the tax payers to buy another one....

NBC Sports: Report: Alejandro Villanueva set to visit with Ravens. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/04/19/report-alejandro-villanueva-set-to-visit-with-ravens/

The truly sad part is that people read what they want to see, not what is really there; media. Yes, this article did a fairly good job of separating the gun violence, but they missed by including all of it under one head line grabbing statement; mass shootings. "Shoot", pardon the pun, a vast, vast majority of the mass shootings, the gun violence is done by shhh, GANGS! Just look at Chicago for the perdect example, it is "nothing" for them to have 50 people shot over a weekend, to have a mass shooting of 5 or more at a "child's birthday party. Tell me, why is that, gang related mass shooting, not having flags at half staff, headlines in every news agency? Yet when they talk about gun violence, mass shootings, those 50 people are included, those 5+ people killed at a gang birthday party are included. Gun laws? Maine has the loosest gun laws in the nation for the most part, how many shootings, mass killings happen there? Chicago/Illinois has some of the strictest.. I'm not sure what the answer is, gun laws are tight, strict for the most part, if a person wants to kill a lot of people, they will find a way, gun or no gun, the B word is easy to find out how to make them on the web, get supplies at your local groccery store... But for the love of all people, filter out those shot/killed with illegal guns by gangs, from those killed/shot with legal guns done out of "desperation".....

Hey, it's tax payer money, so anything will go...

Yeah, they got too cute with the architecture, ends up costing far more down the road as we see now....

Just imagine if they had built the stadium facing the right way... Or built it with a retractable roof.....

A report just came out stating that 21 of the 22 horses killed as a result of injury sustained at the track had pre-existing conditions known to the equestrians though they "did not grasp the significance of major pre-existing lessions". Then they should be fired, really, they didn't think a bone lesssion would lead to a break? Give me a freaking break.... https://www.pasadenastarnews.com/2020/03/10/no-illegal-medications-found-in-states-investigation-into-horse-deaths-at-santa-anita/

2 more horses have died this week, at the Del-Mar track, 4 since Nov 6th. Now were I a conspiracy nut, I would say this was purposely a done to detract from that horrible Santa Rosa track. As I said in my other post, Del -Mar is suppose to be the safest track....hmmm

I heard their vet the other day try to proclaim the track safe because the rate of the horses being put down at the track had gone down.... And the reporter let her get away with that crap. No wonder they will not close that track... Sickening On a side note, 2 horses were put down here at a track this weekend, considered the safest in the nation.

I was just reading about it & about to post.

Thanks crav, I've read a ton about that track and no one has brought this up. It makes perfect sense; the owners should pay through the nose or be forced to sell the track. Why this isn't getting more press is astounding, sad and maddening.

When is enough enough? Crav, this is your wheel house, the "experts" claim to have no clue as to the injuries; but clearly this track needs to be shut down.. 34 horses in less than a year https://ktla.com/2019/10/19/santa-anita-park-in-arcadia-sees-34th-horse-death-since-late-december/
