hemingway's key & bernardini
 

wow after hemingway's key truly brilliant performance today i have to take back all of the disparaging things i said about bernardini and his competition last summer.
considering that bernardini had to tangle with that superstar multiple times, he really must be the greatest horse in the history of the universe.

what is the point of this post ? did you bet hk, and now your upset and had to post something ? if bernardini were still in training he'd easily be one of the top 3 horses in the world, i dont even consider hk a good horse

dear god no!! who in their right mind would bet on that horse?

:rolleyes: You're acting like Hemingway's Key ever got within a pole of Bernardini.

thats why i responded the way i did

i think he was closer to bernardini than he was to istan today (he finished last over 18 lengths behind). i guess it is time for those "just give istan HOY now" threads to start popping up. isn't that what happens when you soundly defeat hemingway's key?

Yeah, because it was only after he beat Hemingway's Key that those threads started popping up.

I'm finding it harder and harder to believe that you had a dime on Invasor in the Breeders' Cup. If you really made such a killing off being "right" about Bernardini, why would you feel the need to make a thread like this four months after the horse retires, when no one is even discussing him? It sounds like you feel a hell of a lot more bitter than you do vindicated.

Ding Ding Ding.

you know i made money on invasor in the bcc. i told everyone for about a week before the race that he was my pick. i even had it as my signature.
as for being bitter....you are right about that. i really didn't like the way people who were legitimately questioning this horse last year were treated, so i take every reasonable opportunity to question this horse. given that hemingway's key was in the $ in two of bern's biggest victories, i thought his dismal performance today reinforced the things i was saying last year about bern's competition.

this response is clearly so clever and sophisticated, that it is impossible to respond to it.

1) let me state again that i absolutely did not bet on hemingway's key. i have never placed a single wager on a race at tampa bay in my life.
2) do i need a pat on the back for picking invasor? no. ateamstupid is the one that brought up me picking invasor.
3) your argument that this stuff happened 4 or 5 moths ago and is therefore not important is even more absurd than your other points. don't we talk about/debate horses that raced 5 or 10 or 35 years ago on this board? do you respond to all of those posts with "Why bring this up now?"
if you have any other points that you would like me to destroy with logic, please feel free to continue posting them on this thread.

Ding Ding Ding.

THROW SOME D's Ateam

na na nana na..i was right...lmfoa..one hit wonders on vh1....:D

:D while i disagree you with you about this, i do appreciate your style. going with another "ding ding ding" well......that's just funny.
i would however advise you to read my response to that post.

if you look, i really did not start this as a "i was right" thread. as for being a one hit wonder, that is more true than you know. i was having a nightmare of a bc all day. i couldn't hit a thing until the classic.

Man, I don't care, you can post whatever you want. I'm just letting you know that you sound real bitter about SOMETHING (my guess is you didn't have Invasor, DaHoss says you bet HK, maybe it's both), and your excuses for beating this dead (or retired) horse are weak.

dude you called it you got your props..dini is still a fine horse and id bet big money that if he were to still be racing he would beat invasor 50 perc of the time..cheap shot..
