Very tragic. Apparently, he was recently arrested for cocaine possession according to Fox sports. Hope that it was not a drug overdose.

Sad, sad news... Michael Baze quickly became a favorite of mine. The kid was good. 24 years old ...no more mounts. A terrible, terrible loss.

Recent scientific research has discovered new avenues of treatment by showing conclusively that addiction is a chronic physical disease that attacks the brain, damaging key parts of the limbic system and cerebral cortex.
I have been sober for a little over three years. For me it is a combination of treatment, faith and AA. There are many resources available. Here are a couple of links. http://www.aa.org/lang/en/meeting_fi...fm?origpage=29 http://www.enterhealth.com/HealingTh...rogram_Disease |

It's easy to romanticize the dead but great jockey? Come on, man. Let him rest in peace but lets not lose perspective.

There's another board that I haven't even logged onto for literally years but I can remember starting a thread, back when he was riding out here, and it was something like 10 years from now who will be the greatest living jockey and he was my choice. I thought he'd be one of the greats and that's not looking back cause the poor kid is gone and trying to turn him into something he wasn't... it's just what I thought (I remember others saying Talamo) at the time. What a ****ing shame. |
