In all seriousness :) just go to the main office, go up to the roof on the elevator, walk across the bridge to the press box and just ask someone where the announcer's booth is and they'll bring you up. welcome anytime.

Thanks, I will be sure to pay a visit when i next head out there!

I met John Dooley in an elevator on Million day 2004, so hopefully my announcer social skills are still sharp. :D

Interesting Assmussen set a record for wins at a Churchill meet. Hopefully this will quiet some detractors for a while but probably not. Nothing breeds contempt better than envy of another's success. He gets it done while being watched as closely as a trainer can be watched. Good for him.

I know it shut me up. My way of thinking is this...if you're a cheater and want to prove to me that you're not, win a trainers title at a major track. Of course my way of thinking may be UTTERLY ****ING RETARDED to some, but it gets me through the day.

Just realized X doesn't show AP video, so no Sumwon race live for me. Yet another reason to hate Xpressbet.

well, tvg wasn't much better....they stayed at hollywood, while i was watching time tick by--screaming who wants to watch this race at hwd?? put freakin ap on!! they got to ap just in time to see sumwons' butt sticking out the back of the gate while they tried to shove her in. argh! i had to be somewhat laid back tho, had my folks on the phone while the race ran. my mom was pretty excited about it--she's a trip!
