Well, yeah, obviously.

That would be great TV. A short jockey looking straight up into her boobs during a post race interview.

But what I was referring to was the suggestion of hiring some good looking chick to convey Serlings handicapping material live, on TV.

Why not Pacheco for that too?

Or you could have the cast of Jersey Shore take turns. The Situation giving Andy's analysis for the Derby would be good television.

I refuse to watch anything with the word Jersey in it (unless referring to dairy cows).

Jerry Bailey and Randy Moss are the creme of the crop on coverage of this sport on National Television broadcasts. They both speak the language of not only the regular guy/gal at the track but the rookie as well. Throw in Kenny and Hank for fun, and Joe and Jay, and you have a production catered to all interests

Folks, you want BS coverage see Fridays' on Bravo the first half hour

Saturdays' coverage showed all aspects

I suggest if you are that upset you take the action and email the folks who can make a difference

I worked in television production of a sporting event for just shy of 2 years and know that the emails make a difference

Be thankfull the sport we love is on air and don't be afraid to speak your mind to make it better because if you just sit on your thoughts and type them out on a message board your not really taking the action needed to make it better -

Be active - let them know what you think - the good, bad and ugly

Jerry Bailey was a great rider. His analyst gig is a monumental failure, however. I'd rather take capping advice from myself after a two-week heroin binge.

Your posts at times show that as well

I'm sure you sleep well at night

If your posts on this board over the years are any indication you have a heart of gold

I may be wrong but I may be right

I'm like an EMF song.

Toast...you surprise me from time to time. I never expected a drunk would quote a Billy Joel song.

Edit: It's kind of a Billy Joel quote. Semantics.

I'm with the anti-Baileyites.

Agreed, I think he is very very knowledgeable, but the way he comes across like the best/smartest guy ever to set afoot on a racetrack is very irritating.
It's almost like he believes that he is a Holy icon of the sport.

Also, is he going to do the goggles bit every year for the rest of his life?
