She could care less about racing unless I tell her we are going and then its all about what shoes she needs to buy with whatever new hat and dress. Not to mention were we are staying and what places are we going to dinner. You think the public doesnt know horses breakdown. geez math they unfortunately have seen the best on the biggest days breakdown for years now?
Then although you completely missed my point which was contraian to those that hoped it would draw more fans, we come to an agreement on the result. The show basically hit on EVERY negative sterotype and situation involved with the sport. What's next a cameo by Dick Dutrow? Funny how people bash the ESPN guy for his failed attemt humor but applaud Luck who protrayed every negative sterotype associated with the sport.
