Ateam, please keep the commentary on other subjects mixed in with the racing talk! I love it. A) it's some funny sh*t and B) it adds so much to the racing observations. Sometimes I think outsiders' view of racing fans doesn't go much beyond what they hear in "I Got the Horse Right Here" in [i]Guys and Dolls[i] and when I tell non-racing friends how smart and funny and opinionated and just all around good conversationalists the people here are, I see them struggle to believe... yes, horse racing people do think of things besides the morning line...
(Though after all these years with me my husband was very pleased to deduce from the lyrics of the aforementioned song that the horse being sung about was not a "mudder." I don't think he ever used that word before. They're so sweet, the non-racing people...)
