At least I'm not the only one with egg on my face
The following was written by a racing blogger named "Bag O Donuts" on MySpace ... doesn't make me feel any better, my wallet is still lighter after the impossible long shot won the Derby, but at least I'm not sitting in the corner by myself now. I also took note on how he's also supremely confident in his dog's ability to beat some of those horses. Kind of reminds me of somebody else I know:
Mine That Bird (#8) - C'mon...let's be serious. Is it really that important to have your wife wear a big hat and have your name in the record books as having run a horse in the Derby if he is going to run 19th beaten a city block? My dog has as much chance of winning the Derby as this horse. My cat is more likely to hit the board. Just ridiculous.
Well, first off, my congratulations go out to the winner's connections. They made me and Joe look like morons, but that being written .... how in $%^&@# did that horse win? I mean, seriously folks. Couldn't win at Sunland Park, had the lowest Beyer in the field, hadn't won this year. After a full night's sleep, I'm still shaking my head.
Hee hee...Are these dogs greyhounds, by any chance? His cat must be a cheetah. ;-)
I don't know, but I'm still waiting for someone to step up and give me a logical explanation on how that horse won the Kentucky Derby. I'll never get one, either, because there isn't one. He went off at 50-1 and should have gone postward at better than 70-1.
