Think Steve got a crank call on ATR today, on satellite radio no less

I actually didn't hear what the guy said clearly.. Something regarding Pletcher. We used to get more of them when JJ was around and it would make him nuts..

I think it was something about a "dump" not sure if the caller meant Pletcher or one of his horses. We use to get them all the time when Nick Kling and I had our public access show on local cable in the early 90's. Had no "seven second" delay either

I miss the guy from Canada who'd call in during an interview trying to sell his new age horse shoes. Any chance that Big Brown is wearing his shoes?

That guy... Oy vay..

The best, who I haven't heard from in a while, is 'Tony from South Philly' who has the greatest schtick going and is unbelievably funny. Would bust on JJ non-stop and has gotten a few in on Perrotta too. Clearly a guy who knows the score around New Jersey/Philly racing...

It was so funny listening to how pissed off JJ would get. I loved those calls.
