The post draw for the Kentucky Derby is today. The Derby is this Saturday with coverage on NBC starting at 3:30. Anyone have a favorite?? I like the favorite..Curlin. Arkansas Derby Champ....like another horse who shall go unnamed but whose name rhymes with Farty Loans.
MayWeather! no no no Dela Hoya . . wait .. . something beyond this fight is going on this saturday??? I tell you . .. after the Barbaro thing .. i think alot of people lost a lot of enthusiasm for the sport I had not heard much about it until you mentioned it I was never big into it to begin with. Rocket River
Barbaro is a champion for the sport. You haven't heard anything about it since because that was the last leg of the Triple Crown. It's that season again. it's a fringe sport to begin with.
I have no clue. But I went to the Derby in 2000. If anyone has that opportunity, do not pass it up. I had no clue about how big a deal it was beforehand. It was a ton of fun. Nothing compares to the palpable excitement during the actual race.
OK, in an effort to take this a bit seriously, I looked up the draw. There is a horse named "Iamawildandcrazyguy". This is awesome. I'll bet you a beer my horse is way faster than yours.
Anyone watching the pre-show? Some of the worst TV I've ever seen . . . they just spent all this time interviewing second-tier celebrities and asking them what they thought . . . "well, um, we just pick the one with the good name" . . . alright, cool, how is that interesting? I couldn't care less what Nick LeShay (sp?) thinks about the Kentucky Derby . . . and then they had Jenny McCarthy talk about how she picks horses . . . holy crap, that was brutal It's better now that they've finished their celebrity portion, but wow, still pretty bad . . . I'm picking Tiago to win, btw.
Barbaro, A Nation's Horse?????? Come on....its a freaking horse!!!!! I honestly never cared that much. I hope I never hear that horse's name again.
I got: 1. Street Sense 2. NOBIZ LIKE SHOBIZ 3. Great Hunter 4. Scat Daddy $40 spread around on different bets. Nothing big.
