Toss.

I'm fairly certain he was doing that at the end of his last work at CD too.

It would be a beautiful thing if a horse could win the Derby and everyone waited to speak of the Triple Crown until after that horse also won the Preakness.

And suddenly the dice have stopped rolling his way.

The momentum over the last few days has just crapped out.

Not to mention the rest of Shug's weekend just went down the sh1tter to boot.

Can he run a fast race before we anoint him a super horse.

Poor Shug. He doesn't deserve this.

What other point could anyone be making by showing that race?

I was seeking an answer originally and that's why I posted. I fear the real answer is far from the lucid one you offered above.

Instead of an answer, I was somehow mocked for being a "know-it-all" and posting drivel on Twitter. The real irony is that in a thread with both DrugS and I, that I got mocked for being a "know-it-all." !!!?!?!?!

I'm clueless on most subjects known to man.

And currently suffering from a potentially life threatening/cancer causing (if you believe Golfer's links) infected tooth.

Other than that, we are stride for stride in the Italian know-it-all department, in pursuit of the categorical gold standard Rock Hard Ten'85

Apparently, you got the worst of the double standard because Reese obviously has a heart and is rooting for me in my great health struggle of the moment.

However, I'm sure a great many are rooting for the infected tooth to prevail in a swift glorious victory over me...leaving you to take up the running without me.

If you die from tooth cancer, I promise to go off my low-carb diet and eat a Subway sandwich in your memory. For you, Doug, I will make that sacrifice. I'll even add in a bag of Doritos. The spicy sweet ones, so my pig of a toddler won't demand any.

Gracias, Nicole.

I love tributes ...especially when they're for me.

Maybe an Al Davis style helmet decal avatar tribute as well?



That would be classy!

But, of course, SAL instead of AL.

By the way...can someone please send that Charles Ramsey character from Cleveland over to Rupert Pupkin's house.

I think KyRim has been chained up there for the last few years.

And speaking of Charles Ramsey ... I don't want to get the govt conspiracy theorists crazies all riled up... but he sure looks a lot like the Katrina Looter guy:

Is it okay if I just fill in the "S" with a Sharpie? Kind of how, if I get an Orb hat and then he doesn't win the TC, I'm going to turn it into a personalized gift for my brother Rob, but I'm just going to cut out the letters and rearrange them. Because that will look real classy, in that ransom note kind of way.

Your avatar helps explains the ignorance shown once again. Have you ever worked with an animal that's switched?

A yes or no will suffice.
