How good is St. Trinians if you believe Zenyatta would beat all of those great fillies/mares?

Only if the race was on a synthetic surface. ;)

Imagine how bad it will be when Z and RA are eligible for the HOF at the same time.

People are so quick to dismiss someone without knowing what the guy's resume is, like writing books and even teaching the one and only Andy Beyer certain betting strategies about the game is certainly not a lark, thus his opinion should be respected.

17 times. A deep closer. Has never taken a day off. Has never "just not fired." Has never been a pace victim. Loses ground on every turn for home. Still runs them down like dogs. Like dirty dogs. 17 times. In a row. That's every time she's raced. Man, this horse is terrible. :rolleyes:

It seems like the RA fans (of which I'm one as well) really want to meet Zenyatta, as long as it's under their terms, of course: dirt, X amount of panels, out East, when RA's fit enough, etc. Rachel was electrifying last year, but you have to respect Zenyatta for what she is. She's a fire-breathing monster.

And some clown counters Steve "F******" Davidovitz's opinion with a dozen females better than her in the past thirty years? Child, please. That's just rabid RA fandomness.

Oh, why? This is fun. This is what being a sports fan is about. Ali or Tyson? Mantle or Mays? Gretzky or Lemieux?

Outstanding entry, sir


Yeah, DuhTruth's post was funny … but it was absolutely hilarious to see a guy like Indian Loser ripping Davidowitz.

Coach Pants 06-15-2010 09:55 PM

Well he works for Bodog so his reputation is beyond repute.
