One very lucky guy. Right place, right time, right hospital. Hope he continues to recover well with his second opportunity at life.

No its not?? It very much was. Massive heart attack with blocked arteries at 100 and 90 percent. Yahoo that if you need 2. Then tell me his life was not on the line. It says a lot about how strong bob is, what a guy. A lot of ppl would have went into the light and faded away, not the goat. He's a warrior.

I'm envisioning a scene of you actually meeting Baffert and I can't stop laughing.
