Default Street Smarts

Disclaimer - Yes I am sober............................................. .....................

So I am having dinner at a local Wing and Pizza hangout this evening chillin with a couple friends playing the designated driver route munching on wings and celery (yummy) and then my ears turn to the table next to us. Nobody at our table besides me digs Horse Racing, so I am all ears listening to this cat at the table next to us talking about how "Street Smarts" got an easy trip and was givin the Derby by all the others Jocks.

He said "Street Smarts" a good 10 times tellin his buddies how the Derby went down.

Being the A Hole I can be at times, I asked this cat (who had a couple draft beers in him ) if he bet Street Smarts

Nice story.

Happy T and i went to Hollywood Park on Derby day. At the next table was a real loud-mouth know-it-all, wanna-be Sopranos type and his three disciples. He pontificated, they nodded and made strange sounds in unison. All through the Woodford Reserve and the Humana or "da Human" as i guess it's known in some circles this guy went on and on about who wouldn't win.....

I swear, if this idiot said "dat dere Street Cry" one more time.....

Put my imaginary earplugs in and played the race a few different ways and didn't hit, but i had to laugh when dat dere Street Cry won.

Last Friday I overheard a guy at the OTB saying that the top jocks to watch for at Churchill are Berano and Lepano.
