Didn't somebody mention that the St. Louis Derby has been run for like 50 years? Funny how every news story on the race calls it the "inaugural" St. Louis Derby.

Okay dawgs; I've had enough of all dis yellin' and disrespectin' on a thread about my main man, Lawyer Ron. I don' wanna see no more posts bringing bad energy into his aura, know what I'm sayin'? From here on out, every post on dis thread best be startin' wid, "Lawyer Ron is the f'shizzle because..." and then I want ch'all be postin' some good reasons why he's the f'shizzle. I mean it. I love me some bitchslappin' on the OT boards as much as the next chick, but I don't want no mo' slappin' on Lawyer Ron's thread.

I mean it. Don't make me go all Lou Ferrigno on yo' asses.

BuffyM, I emailed to the NTRA.com site, "Yo what up, why you be hatin' on Lawyer Ron and not showing his race so we can give him some love?" so maybe they'll post it. You could email them, too, though maybe you want to be usin' some better grammar than that when you ask 'em.

LOVE this post. HILARIOUS, Genuine. :D

Um, lovely Cajun? I did not notice this post starting with "Lawyer Ron is the f'shizzle because..." I'm sure it was just an oversight so I'll let it go this time...
;)

Next time, we'll both tell them motha fuggas to REPRESENT! Ya hear what I be saying, fool? :cool:

Thead of the year so far. A million people in a million directions - most so far off topic that they're circling Pluto (which I just leanred is no longer a planet btw :confused: ). Keep up the good work all! :D

No, Joel. I don't "get it." You are wrong here, buddy.

Every horse I mentioned is a champion, and if you don't care to research who they beat, what they won, and how they did it rather than just discounting them because they didn't run in America then that is your choice. I'm definitely not trying to convince you of anything. It isn't much of a debatable point.

The Melbourne Cup and incidentally the Flemington Spring Carnival coincide with our Breeders Cup. The Melbourne Cup is usually the first Tuesday after the Breeders Cup day.

Contrary to popular belief, a Breeders Cup race to Australians definitely isn't a bigger race to win than The Melbourne Cup.

Elvstroem went to Dubai and won two years ago in the Duty Free, Takeover Target and Choisir won Group One sprints at Royal Ascot in the last few years, and they do consistently go to Japan and Hong Kong and run competitively.

Hong Kong racing is made up of former Australian and Kiwi gallopers who change their names. There was one formerly named Eltira that did pretty good for quite a while (Silent Witness)

There will be European, Asian, and Arab-owned horses contesting the Melbourne Cup, Cox Plate, and Caufield Cup this year, they always do.

If you were Australian, wouldn't you rather win a Cox Plate, or a Caulfield or Melbourne Cup than a Breeders Cup?

I'm not sure why you have taken this attitude with me, because I assure you that I won't be taking any lessons from you.

And I can also guarantee that you wouldn't be popping off your mouth if we weren't on this gay-ass message board and face to face.

Your true ****-ish attitude has shown through Joel, and you have quit debating topics and are now just acting like a spoiled kid.

Moodwalker, where yo' "Lawyer Ron is the f'shizzle because..."???? I feel my eyes glowin' green, dawg, and that BWEEEEEEEEE music is startin' up... move 'dis Down Unda hatin' off my boy's thread and start tellin' me 'bout The Barrister Ronald, know what I'm sayin'?


Cajun, word. You a wise girl.

You ain't off the hook just 'cause you be sayin' nice things. Come on, say it with me, "Lawyer Ron is the f'shizzle because..." take it from there, dawg. I'm waitin'.

"Lawyer Ron is the f'shizzle because..."

He beats up on nothing competition and while he's earned a ton of money he'll fold up his tent and wait for Oaklawn as soon as he has to battle some of the best horses in the handicap division.

S'all right; s'all right. S'about Lawyer Ron so I won't be splittin' no oxford shirts open and shakin' my Beatleesque mop. All opinions welcome. ;)

ummm i ran this through alta vista to interpret it into english.
Lawyer Ron is the new people's horse. Peeps, UNITE.

Because the heart of the spring season in Australia is the run up to the Melbourne Cup on the first Tuesday of November. No part of the season is more important except for the Easter Carnival in the fall. They ain't gonna ship half-way around the world and miss the Cox Plate or the Cup, just for your entertainment. Their 2yo and 3yo are 6 months younger than ours, so they aren't going to send those.

You missed Elvstroem's win in the Dubai Duty Free?

None of the best horses in the world are in Australia - period....a loss of their racing rpoduct would not affect the sport...period.....they have had no Seattle's Slews, no Mr. Prospectors, No Sadler's Wells, no Bernardinis, No A.P. indys....no Man O' Wars, no Seceretariats, no Dr. Fagers, no Ruffians, no Foregos....no Citations....Do you see where I'm goi9ng witrh this?

You are trying to justify there importance like justifying that the Italian basketball league has any improtance in the world on the grand scle of professional basketball.....it just doesn't...sorry man..

Oh, ad Sumline won the Cox's Plate sveral consecutive years not the MElbourne Cup...got one insignifgicant race mixed up with another....

It still doesn't change the fact that ytou screwed up by thinking we were argueing Danzig's value as a sire instead his value as a sire oif sires......nice try..

Oh, ad I would tell you every word of this to your face as I am typing it on this keypad because it is what I believe is to be true....

BTW, none of those "Australian Greats" impacted the sport around the world.....Northern Dancer, Raise a Native, Storm Cat...those are a few horses that have impacted the sport around the world - including Australia - but Astralia has never impacted anything truly relavent outside of its racing circles - a racing circle that is inferior to most racing markets....

They actually brought in 3-4 guys from Australia to try to talk Graham Motion into bringing Bette Talk Now to the Melbourne Cup because the thought that it would be one of the greatest coups for their racing product....If that phony turf horse would be a sesation in Australia - that speaks volumes to how poor racing is there.....

Have a nice day :)

The why do the best Euros go to America Breeders' Cup and Japan at years end instead of going to Australia if its such a premier racing tradition there?....Beacuse it is not compared to the Breeders' Cup ad Japan's big day of racing.....

The St. Louis Derby was run at Cahokia Downs ... from 1954 at least through the 1960's ... and possibly until 1979 ... when that exquisitely beautiful venue for thoroughbred racing shut its gates.

The race was discontinued ... until Fairmount decided to renew it this year.

You're dealing with a phony, hypocritical, lying broad here ...

... so don't waste your valuable time on backflush like her.

Like sands through the gloggles, so are the days of our lives....

But good to see that we are now atleast arguing about horses and not personally attacking each other anymore...


Lawyer Ron is the f'shizzle because... he is! I really like this horse and I hope he does well the rest of the year. I want him to kick some booty!

Well, crap! I spoke too soon!

LR is the F'shizzle because he is going to kick some booty.

Yeah ... right ...

... I guess that's why South American horses never race here either ...

... it's that old southern hemisphere time thing.

What a ditz.

Are you two married? You bicker like an old married couple. :D

Hey ... Mrs. Brooklynite is beautiful, brilliant, funny, and talented ... and the best-loved woman on the planet.

Ixnay on this ankskay.

BB, PA, CR, I didn't be seeing, "Lawyer Ron is the f'shizzle because..." Come on, homies, you can do it. This Aussie hatin' and name callin' is ruinin' the warm glow aroun' the Ronmeister.

Hey .. I'm the one who originally put this thing back on track ...

... until a certain ankskay stunk the place up.

I think Danzig is a fine sire of sires, and I wasn't confused... I knew what you were saying and had read every post before I responded. I must have just "mistyped." Let me make sure you are clear on what I meant. I think Danzig is a dandy sire of sires, and I disagree with you.

And even if Danehill were his only son to stand I would still think this.

If you will go to the world thoroughbred rankings (which are created by your loved "industry experts") I can assure you that there are always some Australians on there.

http://www.horseracingintfed.com/res...kings_Site.asp

Makybe Diva, Starcraft, and Silent Witness were in the top 10 at the end of 2005, but I guess you are more of an expert than the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities. Only two U.S. based horses were, St. Liam and Leroidesanimaux.

Look Hoss, you aren't going to teach me anything on here. I promise you.

If you want to worship Louisiana breds going six panels in a cloud of dust, be my guest. This game will be an international sport in the near future, and if you don't believe that Australia or Australian horses will be a factor then that is something you can deal with when it comes. I'm not going to try to convince you otherwise.

I'm leaving for Australia in less than a month to go work under a trainer, and if I go down there and realize that their horses are just inferior I will come on here and say so. But don't be waiting for that post to come anytime soon.

f u c k yourself,

and good luck with your writing

Hey, I finally got it! BB and his cohort have been pulling our collective chains! Very good, we have been properly 'got.'

Making bizarre statements that I have to spend time finding the data to refute, then claiming what they said was something else. Like typing 'X was a horrible sire' and then when I show evidence that this is not so, maintaining that I should have read words that weren't there, ie. 'X was a horrible sire [of sires].' Tossing out gratuitous insults based on what somebody else posted. Then that marvelously Neanderthal statement (I paraphrase) "I don't know nothin' 'bout Australian racing except that it's gotta be lousy 'cause I don't know nothin' 'bout it." Priceless! My, but that got a rise out us!

I had a big brother like you fellows and I always took the bait; it seems I haven't learned from the experience. You must be quite amused that we actually thought you meant all those absurd things you wrote. Well done.

You're still avoiding the question ... like the phony hypocrite weasel that you are.

I said the Bull Dog line was more influential than the Sir Gallahad line from 1946-1956 ... and you said it wasn't.

Since then you've wasted billions of bytes and pixels on this site with your fatuous posts ... lots of storm and fury ... signifying less than nothing ... but somehow haven't found the data to support your flat-out-wrong assertion.

You will get around to that soon ... won't you honey?

they say when a pit bull locks his jaws onto something, that you have to sometimes put a pipe into his mouth to get him to give it up, to break the hold...can you imagine having that much tenacity, to never, EVER want to give it up??? i mean, it could be dead and needing to be buried, but it won't let it go...


the super derby had been mentioned as a possible for lawyer ron....bright one, who was sick and missed the travers, might be headed here. if bro derek doesn't make the sept 2 start, (the el cajon i believe, gonna be a full field there it seems!) he was also mentioned as possible to go to louisiana.

I like Sir Gallahad. :p

Thank goodness you're here, Danzig. :) I would love BD and LR to meet up again. I don't think any 3-year-old can beat Bernardini at this point (maybe Discreet Cat with a little more seasoning can give him a run for his money, but even then I don't know...), but I think BD and LR would be a pretty decent match-up.

So nice to the see the Derby contingent getting back to the races... when does Bob and John come back?

But you couldn't stay on the high road, could 'ja? You jumped right back into the muddy gutter! You betrayed me, you broke my heart! Go wash your dirty clothing and then come back and whisper sweet, sweet, Lawyer Ron nothings to me...

dunno about bob and john. just hope he and the others have more luck in their returns than some baffert horses. danthe(poorguy)bluegrassman ran yesterday....not sure where he finished, but i know it wasn't first.

the one i'm interesting in seeing back is brother derek.

Langfuhr is 3x3 Nearctic...it just seems like i've been seing a lot of Nearctic crosses lately in successful pedigrees...maybe it's like cars...you want to by a Sunbird and all of a sudden that's all you see on the road...

Have fun hot-walking horses down under...I wish you the best success....you sound like a person that should reach high levels of it...

All I have to say is:

http://us.imdb.com/gallery/mptv/1319...th_key=0077031

Good one, Joel.

At least they won't make me dress up like an idiot and run around the racetrack (Fairgrounds)

?...I was the Mardi Gras Jester on Fat Tuesday one year as a favor to Ms. Vicki...that apparently must be what you were referring to....all I did was present the winning trophy to Walter Bindner when he won the Mardi Gras Handicap and then I took the Jester outfit off....wasn't that bad...and when Vicki Krantz asked you to do something you jumped...that was house rules....everybody followed them ;)

Who are you anyway? You seem yo kno0w so much about me....I love how everybody on this chatboard is scared ****less to reveal there names....What's the big freakin deal?

You're either a man that can stand behind his posts or you're not...We have many on hear that act like big **** and tough guys thatthinkj they know you better than you know yourself, but are too chicken **** to reveal their names.....It is comedic because they always bark the loudest and can never stand behind their words...

Listen here motha fuggas... you betta represent Lawya Ron in this here hood. I be sick of dis shiat talkin when dis thread need to be about my boy... you know what I sayin?

How's that Genuine? LMAO :D
