Worst Derby ever

[joemama]

Says a lot about the jockeys.

[joemama]

How\'d you like to be in a foxhole with Johnny Wier?  The war would be lost.

[joemama]

At first I thought that was a bit harsh but I rearead his comment and all I can say is \"Ditto\".

[smalltimer]

U.S. hasn\'t won a war since Korea.

[joemama]

Too many Johnny Wier\'s.

Clean race not. Derby never is but you know that going in. Top three flat outran the others.

[miff]

Players sent it in, nice handle, big churn with many winners, good for game which could use a boost.

[TGJB]

How about we get back to stuff that matters here.

Richie,
I think TGJB put the kibosh on this subject, but I owe you a response, and then if you\'d like to discuss further we can do so in a person to person so as not to bore the members or encourage another comment from TGJB.
A 3 day excursion into a little island with less total population than Syracuse, New York with a \"naval fleet\" of less than 10 fishing trawlers doesn\'t exactly scream \"war\" opponent to me.
Don\'t know how many fellas in here were actually in the real military, but my military background consists of more than what I read in the newspaper or watched on television over a 3 day weekend.  
What military branch were you in?
Peace out richiebee.

Pretty much my sentiments. The track carried speed and Materiality was perfectly pace positioned to be in direct contact, widen Pharoah, who is the best horse ever and win off.

American Pharoah deserves to be odds on at 2-5 in the Preakness and if he\'s not Handicappers are missing a golden opportunity to cash on a certain thing.

It is often said about opinions. everybody has one and we all are entitled to one. It may be that I don\'t understand yours, but for now let me just say -
Whas a matter you?

You gave me Hansel in \'91 and I\'ve been loyal ever since! My first introduction to the \"bounce\". Thanks!
Coach

Don\'t know about 2-5 on AP but Baffert derby winners are 3-4 in the Preakness.Like all stats pretty meaningless without a filter.
