She would have needed at least 6 seconds and a shortcut through the infield and then I would have had her. The odds might not have been as good though.

What's your problem? Aren't you winning the 14th race as well??? :p

Deb o Deb yes please to the shiny, sparklee boy for my 3rd.

Congrats, kids!


See that bottle? It doesn't look much like that any more...

Have one for me!

Hey thanks guys. This is the most I've ever made on Derby day so am very happy.

Ridiculous thing for the day... I had Little Mike on my other ticket... the Oaks / Woodford / Derby one but 1 used two of three Oaks girls on that one leaving out the winner of course!

Oh and only had him cause I was confused and thought he was another horse haha! I'm a moron.

It's all good. Instead of even looking to see what that paid I will be very happy and grateful for what I did win.

Congrats to Sightie :tro: and to Arletta :tro: and I've only gone back a few posts but to anyone else who did well!!!!!

I think I shall stay away from the "big" people threads for now. ;)

I'd rather have the money than anyone thinking I'm redboarding or had to resort to using someone elses picks. :rolleyes:

Final scores:

Arletta-$543.00 :tro:OUR WINNAH!!!!!:$:
Sighty-$532.00 :$:

Congrats to all and thanks for playing! Arletta, pm me for your prize!

Congrats :tro::tro:

Thank you!!!

We had a blast playing and I am honored to be the first winner of our inaugural Clyde Survivor contest :o


If the prize is a T shirt, Clyde has suggested that the wording be placed on the shirt where my boo bee's are :D

We had a very fun and competitive group, and perhaps a little "cheating" here and there, but it was all in good fun and I hope we can make this a yearly thing in paying homage/tribute to our very fine, adorable, loveable :{>:pet..

I mean Wolfie, Mortimer Dexter, Clyde Foxworthy.

Ms. Deb... thank you for running the contest... for your kindness and humor and keeping it fun.

Floyd... you are awesome! Well done!

Bravo Sightie ~ you had some stellar picks. :)

Thanks to the made men for being such sweethearts.

Ms. Arletta.....

I am so happy you won.

Cheers to you, wonder woman!

I am so glad to know you and have so much respect for you. If some people on this forum don't realize what kind of person you are that is their loss.

Do me one teensy favor?

Now that you've won this and since you came really close to winning one of the ShowVivor contests just ****ing win the God damned Dubai thing next year and put those men in their place(s)! :p

Congrats my friend. :tro:

So when does the Preakness contest start? :D

Congrats to all of you! well done!:tro:

Are we really not gonna have any kind of Preakness contest?

None at all?

Whhaaa... sad now.

What if we all come up with one idea and vote and then do the one with the least votes? :D

Here's my idea and sorry it's not sorted out but I'm thinking and writing at the same time (note to self... breathe too)

(and blink)

Okay instead of picking horsies we pick (Ta Da!) our trifecta of Nerdy Trail posters to nail it.

For example... we put in our plays well before and then throughout the day we keep tabs on the slections thread ie say I want to use Coach, Hossy and Bigs... someone else can have as$fuclc, knicks, and Heels, etc and on and on and we play that way.

Hooray!

Or we could just pick the damned horsies.
