Hey Brian Help!

 I and New York Betyors want to bang holy cuomo and Kathy Hochul for violating our tights secured by ny const art 1 sec 3

Even a nyc public school student knows that you cannot pick one Easter Sunday over the other

Help support fun and let’s take the winnings and see that they are given to people that bet horses racing without the state of New York on Roman Catholic Easter Sunday

Anyone that does not want to work cannot be forced to work

A non gangster union would make December 24 & 25 paid double time days with no work required and Easter sundays, the usual time and a half for those that wish to work and paid vacation at straight time for those who pray atthe church of their choice

    Stop scratching on holidays
    Published: June 1, 2012



    Off Track Betting in New York State has been racing into a crisis called shrinking revenue. Some people have spitballed a solution: Don’t close on holidays.
    New York State Racing Law bars racing on Christmas, Easter and Palm Sunday, and the state has ruled OTBs can’t handle action on those days, even though they could easily broadcast races from out of state.
    “You should be able to bet whenever you want,” said Jackson Leeds, a Nassau OTB employee who makes an occasional bet. He added some irrefutable logic: “How is the business going to make money if you’re not open to take people’s bets?”
    Elias Tsekerides, president of the Federation of Hellenic Societies of Greater New York, said OTB is open on Greek Orthodox Easter and Palm Sunday.
    “I don’t want discrimination,” Tsekerides said. “They close for the Catholics, but open for the Greek Orthodox? It’s either open for all or not open.”
    OTB officials have said they lose millions by closing on Palm Sunday alone, with tracks such as Gulfstream, Santa Anita, Turf Paradise and Hawthorne running.
    One option: OTBs could just stay open and face the consequences. New York City OTB did just that back in 2003. The handle was about $1.5 million – and OTB was fined $5,000.
    Easy money.

    Brian Flores, in a bombshell discrimination lawsuit against the NFL and its 32 teams, alleges he was bribed to tank games and urged to tamper with another team’s quarterback by Dolphins owner Stephen Ross.

    Flores, who was recently fired by the Dolphins after three seasons as head coach, filed a class action lawsuit in the Southern District of New York. 

    In the suit, which also cites purported texts from Bill Belichick as evidence the Giants initiated a sham hiring process that landed on Brian Daboll, Flores alleges that Ross offered him $100,000 per game to loss in the 2019 season.

    The Dolphins — and Giants — have denied the claims.

    “[T]he writing had been on the wall since Mr. Flores’ first season as Head Coach of the Dolphins, when he refused his owner’s directive to ‘tank’ for the first pick in the draft,” the lawsuit claims. “Indeed, during the 2019 season, Miami’s owner, Stephen Ross, told Mr. Flores that he would pay him $100,000 for every loss, and the team’s General Manager, Chris Grier, told Mr. Flores that ‘Steve’ was ‘mad’ that Mr. Flores’ success in winning games that year was ‘compromising [the team’s] draft position.'”

    The Dolphins finished 5-11 that season. Because the Bengals had the league’s worst record at 2-14, they landed LSU star Joe Burrow, who now has led Cincinnati to Super Bowl 2022.

    Flores also alleged he was urged by the Dolphins owner to “tamper” with an unnamed “prominent quarterback.” That quarterback was Tom Brady, according to the Palm Beach Post.

    “After the end of the 2019 season, Mr. Ross began to pressure Mr. Flores to recruit a prominent quarterback in violation of League tampering rules. Mr. Flores repeatedly refused to comply with these improper directives,” the suit says. “Undeterred, in the winter of 2020, Mr. Ross invited Mr. Flores onto a yacht for lunch. Shortly after he arrived, Mr. Ross told Mr. Flores that the prominent quarterback was ‘conveniently’ arriving at the marina. 

    “Obviously, Mr. Ross had attempted to ‘set up’ a purportedly impromptu meeting between Mr. Flores and the prominent quarterback. Mr. Flores refused the meeting and left the yacht immediately. After the incident, Mr. Flores was treated with disdain and held out as someone who was noncompliant and difficult to work with.”

    On Tuesday evening, the Dolphins acknowledged the suit, denying all of Flores’ allegations.

    “We vehemently deny any allegations of racial discrimination and are proud of the diversity and inclusion throughout our organization,” the team said in a statement. “The implication that we acted in a manner inconsistent with the integrity of the game is incorrect. We will be withholding further comment on the lawsuit at this time.”

    If these claims are true, the NFL will likely come down hard on Ross and the Dolphins. While the NFL didn’t address the tanking allegations, it did say in a statement that it will defend itself against Flores’ claims of discrimination, which the league says “are without merit.”
