Goldikova to stay in training! - Page 3

I'm with miraja. I was a fan for about 48 hours. Unfortunately, Smoothie King and Fats combined to form the worst tag team since the early 90's Quebecers and reminded me why I had so much disdain for the horse in the first place.

I choose option C.

It's not worth responding to you anymore. You can't stay on topic, you put words in people's mouths and you'll say anything to prove the point you don't have. You're a miserable douche who can never admit he was wrong about anything.

Right, Joey.

Never before has losing by a HEAD been such a clear indication of superiority. BTW, Blame beat the super QR, didn't he?

Let me get this straight. Z CRUSHES the Beyer darlings, QR and RA (who, didn't show up and retired rather than get dusted) and now you shift overseas. That's staying on point, right? You bring in a MILER, no less.

Now, we've already discussed the part about me being 'miserable' and you having a lap dog. What exactly do I have to admit to being wrong about:

1) did I think that Blind Luck was better than Z? NO (on record)
2) did I think that RA was better than Z? NO (on record)
3) did I think that QR was better than Z? NO (on record)

did I have the tri in the Classic? Yes

Twist it any way you want, Joey. Give the mare some love.

Bet to win @ >= 20:1

exacta: 8 / 6
Tri: 8 / 6 / 5

You didn't box it. But feel free to overlook that.

I've given her plenty of love, you manic depressive moron. She's a terrific horse and ran well in defeat. As I predicted she would, by the way. How many times do I have to say it? You're the one who insists on incessantly bringing up Quality Road and Rachel Alexandra and 'Beyerites' in an attempt to prop her up. It seems like you're way more unsure about her credentials than I am. I'm not arguing with you anymore. You should be in an institution.

You're a mod, aren't you?

He never has anything positive to say.

He's never funny.

He's a grouchy jerk.

I mean, really, WTF are you waiting for?

Smooth Operator · #47 11-08-2010, 02:29 PM

OMG

Now THAT is HILARIOUS.

You have Pace Advantage for that stuff

It is easy enough to killfile the no-life, no-brain types, but unfortunately too many others just post responses to the trolls over and over.

I am not sure what you mean by that.

I've been to PA, and that seems like a runaway freight train there.

I've seen people darted here for less than what TFF has done or been.

He comes across, at first, as a smart and worthwhile poster, but the more you read him, the more you realize he offers nothing of value. Whines, bitches, snide remarks and NOTHING ever positive.

And yeah, I know I have, on occasion, on really rare occasion, I mean really rare occasion, told people what I think of them, but I usually do it with some sort of good natured ribbing in mind. TFF though? He's just an angry mean lonely jerk.

Yep.

There is no point in blocking him, since people always seem to take his bait.

Even me. There is something oddly compelling about him.

People like Smoothie, I wouldn't block him because he's so funny, even if he doesn't intend to be (which I'm still not sure of). I have no ill will towards him, or really anyone on here besides TFF.

Have seen Fats take Dahoss and RA and QR loons behind the woodshed many times over the last year or so

Clearly one of the best posters on this board…

This is funny in 5 races for both Blame and Zenyatta before the Classic.

Blame 4 (1st) 1 (2nd) = $1,051,467
Zenyatta 5 (1st) = $930,000

Now lets add Goldi's 5 races before the Mile
Goldikova 4 (1st) 1 (2nd) = $985,495

Who's been running for more money again all year?

Would you rank him above you, or below?

I hope you are doing this with the exchange rate in mind. Tell me you are.

Aren't purses in the form always calculated in American Dollars? If not then nope it wasn't.

Not as I read it when the races are held in Europe. Usually paid in pounds or euros.

brockguy · #58 11-08-2010, 03:53 PM

Excellent news - She is simply fantastic and there should be some brilliant races next year with her, Canford Cliffs, maybe even So You Think and the up and coming 3yos...

Of course he is.

Now answer the question.
