Hey.. Norm Crosby.. Intimated.. It's intimated.

I saw his mistake too, but didn't think of Norm Crosby. Haven't thought of him in years. He's got to be long gone. If he were alive, he'd probably be a hundred and ten. He was the absolute king of malapropism and he could do it so seamlessly. He was a very funny guy.

Norm Crosby is still alive! He's 90.

Paul Matties did an outstanding job of explaining the confluence of events that he deemed the "perfect storm" concerning the Dwyer.

Paul is not as easy to follow nor as eloquent a speaker as some but no denying he is super sharp.

The best part of the 45 minutes was Paul's acknowledgment that this race looks terrible on many levels and EVEN IF the circumstances are 100% above board it shouldn't be discounted as just another day at the races which in reality it was. He gets looking bad is not OK just because a few people with expertise can explain circumstances away. I appreciated that position very much. It showed an actual level of caring about bettors who he competes with daily.
