I have always felt that Alydar would have won the Preakness if he would have witched leads.

The 89 Preakness with EG and SS was the most exciting Preakness ever.

The best performance would be a toss-up between Spectacular Bid and Secretariat---both winning in awesome fashion inspite of unfavorable trips.

The former being floated way out by Cordero through the first turn and down the back stretch run---and the latter making an eye-catching premature move and sustaining it---both winning in excellent time (if you believe the timing error was authentic in Big Red's case)

The Abomonable Snowman.

How do you do it sir?





Line after line of strange biased analysis and you go on with impunity.

But seriously.....







.......give it up.








Think about about the success of the Headless Horseman Corky Nutkatani.

He only lost to Ichabod Crane proving there is help for the headless.

Why Diaper has done well for himself inspite of that.




I admire your zeal for no apparent reason.

Tell those filthy sheep of yours to quit spreading lies about Dimmy

And have a nice night.

You left out the punch line: Ridan claimed foul!

That's a major senior moment for me. I'm really embarrassed.

Speaking of Secretariat's run in the Preakness...

They're showing it on ESPN right now... these guys are goobers. They said it was 24 years ago... geesh.
