race calling is very difficult some people make it sound easy

I couldn't see the blanket or colors very well myself

I know I know
everyone loves Mike

i kept checking my program for "Gaining Ground"

sounds like Hold Me Back is going to the Blue Grass next. I was sure wrong about that maybe being full of dirt milers again this year... Dahoss wins again :)

Actually...

I think I teach how to lose.



Races.

Horse races... to be specific.
I am especially bad on synthetic surfaces.

I thought Bernie would win and be significantly overbet.

So I will now proceed to vomit
on my lap.

I can teach that class. Especially the chapters on Pick 3s and why I hate them.

Dang, just got home from work (last minute, couldn't make the race), saw the win picture on BloodHorse ... stripe down the face (which I don't think Bernie has) - could have been!

Please, John. I know everyone sh1ts on the guy, but that was monumentally bad.

He was calculating his payout on his Pick three tickets between race comments and when "The Clown" made that big move on the far turn, he had to check his program because he didn't have that sucker on any of his tickets.

Speaking of which, didn't the late Pick-3 payout seem a little light?

this guy should be mentioned whenever anyone complains about durkin, wallace, denman, etc. it could always be worse.

I have, under a tarp of secrecy,
been handicapping syth. surfaces.

Conclusion:

I really bite.

And I want to do my utmost
to stress really.

Back to Guass's law and
wondering brilliant others
are and were.

Its fun to be able to appreciate
something you dont have...

*cue wallowing in self-pity*

Dear Mr. Pea Garden,

Is your brain chemistry a bit off today?

Like today is different than any other day?

No.

He's just seething with anger that his alma mater got absolutely HOSED by the refs at the end of the game against Duke today.

for what it's worth I thought Hold Me Back looked magnificent in the post parade on Espn . he looked very lean and fit . might have been an optical illusion in that post parade shots on tv usually don't separate any horses in terms of fitness.

so why are you telling us this now?

Oh lets not go there.

No.
Lets do.

Texas has a bunch of athletes that
have a severe dearth in the area of
basketball IQ. The refs can screw up.

But when we got numbskulls that...

I am used to rooting for an overachieving
NBA team so it is very hard rooting for kids
that play a game their body was made for,
but their brains... its a no go. I like smart
basketball. Texas is very hard to watch.

Very.

Sorry.

Back to my incompetence on synth. surfaces
and the complete void that I live in trying to
figure out which 3 yos are actually good that
run on the stuff. Feel free to continue on
the debacle at Turfway. for me anyway.

Uhhhhh...That's a gaining ground...That's a Proceeeed Beeee.


How the phuck does this guy hold a job in this profession???????

West Side Bernie and Bittle Road = Mid level claimers at best...

Expecting to play Duke and not get hosed by the refs is like expecting to bet on horse racing and not having a takeout. You have to know what you are getting into. Duke, Connecticut, and Big 10 teams can do whatever they want. Everyone else has to play by the normal rules of basketball.

sometimes it's more of who you know than what you know, ya know? :D
