I'm not looking for any credit for picking Curlin. I could care less who gives me credit for a winning pick or who gives me grief for a losing one. I don't put anything on here for any validation from any other person on here. But if u want to take your shot at lessening my joy for picking Curlin by noting that he was the morning line favorite for the Derby, u might want to try a different tactic because this one is weak.

Mr. Glorious;


I have given you grief even way back durring my short stay at Thoroughbred Mimes.


You do hold up well under constant attack.


I hope Jim doesn't take this as a back hand against him , because it's not, but I do see what you're saying here.






I admire your resiliency.

Thoroughbred Mimes? What do they do? Pretend they're in a box stall?

So I read LQ got it in 1:53.43 and Curlin in 1:53.46...assuming that Tanks Prospect also got the .43. We all know Secretariat is the king over all of them in the time even if Pimlico refuses to acknowledge it. At least DRF does. Surprising that they messed up on the 'fastest Preakness' label. Of course many media outlets forget Sham also broke 2 minutes in the Derby and say Monarchos was the 2nd horse to do it...he was only the second winner.

ETA: Heh, looks like I wasn't the only one grumbling about the accuracy of that claim of a record. They've tweaked the comment at DRF.com and Jay Privman's article on the subject now points to the fact that when they measured the race in tenths TP and LQ had the 2/5 assigned to them instead of .43,etc. and Curlin would join them in that regard. Whatever, still not the record. So close though that it's pretty darn impressive. I'm happy for Smart Strike. Got a Classic winner, nice job fella. Bran mash on the house and pass out the cigars, just don't smoke in the stud barn.

If you could care less about who gives you grief for a losing statement, why did you whine below about people jumping on others, and that it makes you not want to post here?

You open yourself to this, you make outrageous predictions and then start to whine if someone brings it up when they are exposed.

I tried to lessen your joy? Shall we use your Jazil rant as an example of how to spread the joy?

This is getting more and more embarrassing by the race. Each time this pig steps on the track, he's further disgracing the TC.
you always try to have it both ways.

When u get around to showing me where that post about Jazil criticizes anyone's selection of him, wake me.
