That interview smelled like a horses stall first thing in the AM...

Maybe people after him from his Hedge Fund days?

or perhaps the Benny the Bull days...

did you ever have to say "HEY!!!! DOWN IN FRONT!!!!!"

even though that guy could probably tuck you under his armpit without anyone noticing, i'm pretty sure you could get some good shots in

If I lost my life savings in the market because some guy was trading my money without my permission hed need a 24hr bodyguard, and that benz the pope drives around in.

i hear ya, but anyone dumb enough to put their life savings into penny stocks should be tought a serious lesson about life

Use your imagination...

I was parked right across from where BB was stabled on Belmont day. My friend and I walked through the tunnel to go to the car and there was Iavarone (and bodyguard w/o BTW tucked under his arm) talking to a couple of media types. Soon a group of about 10 media members was gathered. At this time, no one could confirm or deny the colt's "condition" other than that he'd walked off the track under his own power. (I was at the gap and he walked 4 feet from me. No security there other than the usually NYRA Security.)
Over on the backstretch post race, alot of folks were milling about. I chatted with John Lee and a couple of media types. Iavarone was there, Dutrow was there (and very quiet) and I saw no one that appeared to be "security" other than the big bodyguard and one NYRA security man. We hung around for quite some time hoping to get any info about the horse. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary considering the circumstances. I wasn't wearing my credential yet I was able to walk up quite close to the barn (and I'm not that well known at Belmont) without being questioned. I pushed right up into the group of reporters speaking to Iavarone at the intersection of the main road to the gap and the road BB was stabled on.
I find it odd, after hearing this story that this man was under some sort of death threat at that moment. I was clearly diappointed but he didn't look worried for his life.

Its sad someone would resort to threatening the guys life or his family. When someones serious there is no threat prior to death. They just show up and your dead.

What is sad is that ESPN saw fit to give this guy any more airtime and to run this story with ZERO confirmation from reliable sources.

Hes earned TV time

gotti is that you?

BT, doesnt that make sense though. Why tell someone.."Im going to kill you" just kill them if you want to kill them, dont let them know its coming so they can hire help and you can wrestle with your conscience.

Play this backwards 10 times at midnight

i hear ya, i think it was desperate attempt to reach out to viewers who don't think highly of him and cast himself as a victim and not the vilan. Either way, how was the public supposed to re-act to a statement like that? it happened months ago, are people gonna see him in a different light now?

Nobody thinks highly of him, except him!

Nothing better than the smell of horse shiat piling up all night. :)
