CBS 60 minutes filmed for a good week or so, I saw the cameras set up at Bali Hai, Royal Links and Desert Pines courses and Mr. Walters was there each day. I didn't think this episode would be featuring as much gambling talk as the preview leads on and that a large chunk of the show would be about the hit he is taking in the golf course industry due to the economy and all the legal battles he has with the city to develop real estate and pump water for less than other businesses.

I was contacted early last year about this. It began as a feature about scientific methods in sports betting and it was looking strong for LVASports, but they veered to Walters. I get it, but we were close.
