Default NYTimes Piece on "BTW"

While the NYTimes profile on J. Leparoux is nice, DTers should enjoy this piece from Sunday's Times on our own "Black Throated Wind"...

If you didn't know who 'BTW' was before, you will now. Bravo for one of the NY Racing scene's great characters and gentlemen.

Ive read Mr. Serling on a few chat boards over the last few years. Always informative and a great read.

Cheers to Mr. Serling!

Normally ... I would never bother to click on anything from that blundering, incompetent, biased, America-hating, filthy commie-pinko left-wing rag ... but ...

... I did so for Blackthroatedwind.

Just shows you how much I admire the guy.
