Comments on: Milwaukee Mile on its last cylinder http://norunnyeggs.com/2009/11/milwaukee-mile-on-its-last-cylinder/ The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

I know there's a "Craps" in there someplace. There were 2 places where the State Fair Park Board really screwed this thing up, and not-so-coincidentally, both of them were when Doyle was around: - In 2003, when they rashly fired Haas Racing and decided to run the track themselves. I'm not saying that Haas would have been able to turn a profit in 2003-2005, but I'll guarantee that the losses wouldn't have been $7 million over those 3 years. - In 2005, when they equally-rashly (and that's actually being charitable considering the crowd reaction in June) gave a no-experience outfit the contract under crushing conditions.
