Most silly post Triple Crown commentary?

This one will be hard to beat:

There are some on youtube that actually think that the winning of the Triple Crown and the horse's name mean that the end of the world is coming.

No, I am not making this up, and as far as I can tell it is not an Onion-style parody...

OK, I fold.

Not as bad as those, but still silly.

He's got an icon for utorrent on his desktop, which means he likely is downloading pirated material.

His PC is almost certainly infected too, from what I'm seeing.

I also like the text file named 'gods' on his desktop too.

What I'd like to know is how the Monster logo looks like a 666 to him.

It's essentially a misreading of Hebrew.

Crap like that reminds me of the episode on the cosmos where neil degrasse tyson talks about pattern recognition....and, of course, false pattern recognition.
i couldnt finish the video, after the first above, and then the first of that....it was more than i could bear.

Thank you! I was just coming here to post this one, though let's give the full credit for the stupid of the article to the Wall Street Journal, who put out the original article (though I found it via Deadspin, too. I like Deadspin).

Best comment after the article: "At last. Video evidence that 2:24 is faster than 2:26."

This morning I did find this fun comment by John Nerud, made in 1996 when Cigar got HOY, about Big Red:

"Cigar's better than Secretariat. But then, I never gave Secretariat that much credit. The knock on him is that he couldn't win on any kind of a track. Secretariat got beat by bums four times. Allen Jerkens, who beat Secretariat with Onion and Prove Out, used to say, 'I get him on a hard track and I've got a chance. He's not the same horse when you can hear his feet rattle.' "

I read somewhere that there was one voter when Bloodhorse put together the best 100 horses of the 20th Century who placed Secretariat so low it pushed him to number 2, behind Man O' War, in final voting. I wonder if we've found the culprit...

it's not often a horse is called great that lost one quarter of his races. his triple crown is a thing of beauty, and so many focus on that. good reason why...but when it comes down to it, i don't know that it's enough to put him on top.
i'd put the bid ahead of him, who lost less races while running many more. there's something to be said about a horse whose last lost was when he was three, to a tc winner/hoy 4 yo, and then went perfect at four and still holds the 10f record.
that horse was amazing.

If you stand on you head and look cross-eyed while covering one of your eyes (either one) you can indeed make the Monster logo look like "666"...Don't try this at home

Wow.

Hey, when reagan was prez, they said he was the sign of the devil.
then again, both peter the great and ivan the terrible were said to be the antichrist. Its a recurring theme
