My God, I gotta get myself back on this board on a more regular basis. The conversations I'm missing out on are priceless.

I looked for the article, but no luck so far. However, I did find this, ahem, very "interesting" look at Rags' Belmont victory from a Biblical standpoint.

This is better than most explanations that have been trying to explain Mine That Bird's victory.

Is the infamous ROSSTABBERT behind this organization?
Rosstabert has unfortuneatly left the game of horse racing. He has been way too busy in his attempt to help the Crab Nebulans defend their planet from the recent attacks by The Androids of the Farthest Moon of Endor.
