Lava Man makes front page of USA Today
Normally, I don't need or want my news accompanied with colorful pie charts, but when Lava Man is in glorious full color on page one, I'll plunk down my seventy-five cents. From claimer to above-the-fold front page horse-- way to go, Lava Man!

Perfect Drift Invasor Lava Man Alt: Giacomo The horse I'd like to see win this more than anything is Lava Man, but I think that Drifty will come prepared and he likes CD (not to mention being a live longshot.) It'd be nice to shut all the doubters up about Lava Man, though.

Thanks for slumming with us idiots for the day.  The USA Today is a very good paper. It caters to independents that don't like our news biased like in the NY Times and Washington Times. Us idiots can think for ourselves, we don't need an editorial page telling us how to think. I don't see much about the Breeders Cup in the NY Times. One weak article. Thank God for USA Today and it's colorful pie charts.

i'll be excited about whoever wins--some top-class horses, and can't wait to see who comes out on top.
but i think my grin would be just a bit bigger if lava man is in the front at the wire. perfect end to a perfect season for him. how often do we get to see PERFECTION?? and then, maybe we get to see him try again next year--now wouldn't that be something?? i think they should make a rule--every third colt born gets nadded, regardless of pedigree. hahaha, yeah RIGHT!

The editorial page in the USA Today is actually fair and balanced, unlike Fox News or the New York Times. In fact, James Carville said if you really want to understand mainstream america you should read the USA Today. News, Sports, Entertainment, and a good Business section.

my only real beef with usa today is they don't do weekends. i like to curl up with the paper on sundays, and when we travel it's hard to find a good sunday paper. but if you buy a usa today, it's OLD news. luckily the wash post is available in larger cities...and just like old times, the ink comes off on your hands. don't wear white when you read the post!!

You can do them right on your monitor which I like since it is easy to delete (erase) a letter or word that is wrong. It is nice to print out a few old ones to do if you are travelling http://www.nytimes.com/pages/crosswords/index.html Last edited by Slewbopper : 11-04-2006 at 06:01 AM.
