The worst thing about Laffit and Hazleton is that they're not bad. I like to listen to the guys who work hard and are real good .. and I sometimes like to listen to the ones who are horrible so I can laugh at them.
If you're not going to work hard to be real good .. at least have the courtesy to be terrible.

Don't disagree about the veterans, but it seems the time for a 'next generation' may be here. It kind of calls for undisputed reporting and/or handicapping intellects like Serling and Privman or polished up and comers like Laffit and Hazleton. Andy and Jay, (Brad Free too), stand alone as winning personalities with well-researched, well-reasoned information that flows out of them naturally. Make no mistake about Hazleton and Pincay and their potential as they work very hard and have deep reserves of horsmanship knowledge from which to draw.
