Uh huh, because we all know you're proven as both a better bettor and handicapper than I am.

I remember fooling myself into thinking she was one of the best female sprinters in the country because of her record and her performances... and later taking abuse for it when she finally lost a step or two.

What baffles me about all of this is after she won the BC classic even the staunchest Zenyatta doubters said "well ok that finally proves she's a great horse". Since then she's won three more and now she sucks again. How can that be:confused:

I like Zenyatta. No, I really like Zenyatta. I don't like seeing her face total crap all the time. That's probably most fans' complaint. |

Well said, but the 50th time this same statement has been made to no avail with the Zen crowd. You cant rationalize with the irrational.....they read your statement as such:
No one said she sucks. The idea that people defend her without regard for context baffles me. Any horse that wins 18 in a row against any manner of competition obviously is a superior individual. But what I maintain is that this years campaign has shown her to be merely superior to untested and decidely inferior (to be kind) fillies and really hasnt done a single thing to make anyone but the ardent supporters believe otherwise. Winning the BC was a very nice accomplishment (despite the obviously weak field for the event) but it hardly qualifies her for the ridiclousness that is spouted about her place among the greats, all of which proved themselves time after time in the top races, winning and losing to the best competition..ADDBUT SHE NEVER LOST. |

How "great" do you have to be in this sport to be qualified for the Hall of Fame? If Point Given was elected, ANYONE could be...

I can't imagine a situation where Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra don't both get in. Of course, I also can't imagine why Sky Beauty is still in the waiting room. |
