Well, he was 20/1 on the morning line - and not only did I pick him on top - but he was also my best bet in the newspaper.

And there the two collide, which is what happens on these boards.
But OK, that's a clearer synopsis, I get what you're saying now, well sort of not saying for him.
While I don't make a living at this I do fit in both worlds. So am I real bettor?

ByTheWay, Love the new avatar......although I did like the predator series.

Where can we find this paper?

For the proper way to give out a winner, see Harry's PID thread...you know where to find it.

FTFY is fixed that for you.

I was the only member of the press that day who went back there -

...and we're all lucky you chased that ambulance cuz when there's a veterinary emergency at the track one of the crucial elements necessary to assess and stablize the patient is a pen-and-notepad toting megalomaniac trying to get a scoop...

Congrats.

Ding, ding, ding...I am safe now. No way I can win the "Dumbest Post of the Day Award" after this gem.

I hope DrugS doesn't find out I referred to the PID as an irrelevant outpost of racing.

I watched from afar until he was taken care of and spoke with the trainer as he walked to the track....in the process of him watching yet another loser run under Steve Asmussen's name.

Yep! I believe Asmussen is currently 1-for-26 with favorites so far.

With a few last place finishes and now one dead horse.

Should have let me know you DID have an agenda with that one, PID I will loving always refer to it as the irrevelant outpost. I felt the need to edit my post regarding dinner, but hey I'm in Louisiana we'll eat anything down here.

Slam him for the redboard, not trying to find out if the horse is okay.

His post read as though he thought he was the only one at the track that day that gave a **** about the horse. That's what I was commenting on.

I'm sure I misread it, though. Must have been all the "I"s.

He should consider sending his string to Arthur Wendel next year.

The real reporters there that night had two more stake races to cover after Super Frolic went bad.

I was the lucky one who got to make the half mile walk in 45 degree weather with no coat.
