Nice Birthday gift for Calvin. ESPN and ABC should pay him 50K for using the fight as a promo for Sat.

More awkward fight: Borel-Castellano or Jeff Gordon and Jeff Burton at today's NASCAR race? It was a weekend filled with midget wrasslin!

Calvin has forgot more about race riding and horsemanship that we will ever know. He isnt the greatest jock, but he commands respect from the horseman. While Javi is known as a nice guy and good rider, his actions were reckless and could have permanently injured those guys. Contrary to all the touchy feelys we have now a days, stuff happens and sometimes it needs to be handled just as it was....when you scrap at places like Cajun Downs and the Quarter Pole, you dont take it lightly when someone threatens your career.

How much does the man really need to "read or write" when he's buying a new car in cash? I mean, really?

i could care less...and i bet au miner. this happens, its racing. i'm more pissed off about life at ten. that was a travesty, johnny v. should get his head handed to him along with pletcher. that ladies classic tarnished the entire friday card and the guy is on national tv saying the horse is not right....but says nothing at the gate. then people wonder why racing gets a black eye about cheating from casual fans.....
 the only thing that could of gone worse is if that horse would of keeled on the track...MORONS!!!!!!!!

It cost Derailed five grand. Was it worth it to him? Maybe he thinks so, but if he thinks it did, he basically rode for nothing in the BC races. If he's so highly thought of and supposedly "owns Churchill", how come he only got 5 mounts in the 14 BC races Friday 3rd in the 5th 7th in the 8th 9th in the 10th Saturday 10th in the 5th 9th in the 9th He's on the decline.

so it doesnt matter how good the horse is that he's riding? Didnt he just win his 48th Kentucky Derby this year on a horse who sucks? Actually, hasnt he won 2 straight Derby's on horses who havent won since? I think the last thing Borel is on is a decline.

What has he done lately? He had 3 decent horses in the 5 BC mounts he got and didn't do jack. Even in the 3 races he rode on the undercard, he couldn't pull off a win... and this was at Churchill.

I don't understand all why all the hate against Calvin all of a sudden. Not only did the incident cost him a chance of winning the race, but him and his mount could have been seriously hurt (or worst) if Garcia and his horse went down. I don't know how he stayed up (the horse or Garcia for that matter), but there was a pretty good chance that Borel, his horse and maybe a couple other would have been wiped out by Garcia and his mount. So Borel had a pretty good reason to be pissed. Was it a bit over the top?, possibly. Should have he waited an taken issue in the jocks room?, probably. But no one has the right to deny the fact that he had a pretty good damn reason for being upset and wanting a piece of Javy's ass.
