Maybe two days? Three?

It's going to get tuff to get alot of good mounts with the new addition to the jockeys room.

Please let him ride, otherwise ESPN may hire him to work with Jerry Bailey.

Mike is a shadow of his former self but the guy brought home a 2k pick 4 for me at Toga in '06. The will pay on his horse was at least double of the other 3 horses I had on my $54 ticket.

I'll always have love for him.

P. Val is named on Hollywood Park mounts this weekend. I will give him alittle time to adjust to the cushion track and then things will be getting ugly if he starts winning again.

Who will be the first front line jock to leave?

I think its such crap that trainers will just dismiss the guys who have been here , working hard and putting the time in to make a change and put Pat on .
Dont give me the crap "oh they gotta do for their owners " its such bs ..... trainers use that excuse to ride him and it is crap , if the freakin guy was so sincere about all his stuff he wouldnt let his liscense expire , I mean truly if riding horses was the most important thing to him then why wouldnt he try and do everything in his power to prove it , nope he just proved he is the same loser he always has been and believe me if he didnt need the money he wouldnt be riding , he would just be sitting in his closet hitting the pipe going shhhh shhhh , did you hear that ?

The mounts go to him like bees to honey every time he comes back. I could take his book and we would be in the top 10.

One day the majic will be gone and dirt racing no longer in California he may not find it as easy this time.

Two things.
1. You make me laugh so freakin hard
2. It is great to see this perspective rather then just the Fan who might not realize (or appreciate) the effort the guys (and gal) who have been busting their butt while he was on his trippi vacaction. As a fan, it is easy to get caught up in the "cheer for the loose cannon" mentality. When you personalize it, you realize just how wrong it is. In the end, just like everything else....it will be the results that matter. Does he still have the talent and the effort to dominate...that will be the deciding factors, not what is "fair".
