She was 50 lengths back. Went 20 wide. Up the hill. Both ways. In the snow. Against 100 mph winds.......

and the guy who took a swing at Artax returned to the "ring" and tried to suckerpunch her at the 1/8th pole.

Not only did she have to go against 100 mph headwinds, but everyone else got a 100 mph tailwind at the same time!

... and she was blindfolded.

I can't believe you MORONS forgot that part.

Not enough vitriol.

It was a good first try though!

Thank you!

I'll work on it.

Hey maybe we could have a contest where once a week...

Nah. Forget it.

Hey, why not?

We already have an unofficial contest among the Zenyattards as to who can come up with the stupidest post of the minute.

my miss storm cat 11-09-2010 09:42 PM

I said this elsewhere so I'm just going to say it... I hated the piece.

Pretentious, affected and wanna-be intellectual...

No thanks.

:D

I'd ask who is winning but I think I'd rather guess and leave it at that.

The thing is MMSC, there aren't any winners. Just whiners and losers.

They are sure trying their stupid little hearts out though.

I guess you had to be at Churchill on Saturday.

Actually, isn't it sort of the opposite? Shouldn't emotion be taken out of it?

Don't get me wrong, it was obviously a great racing moment, and while you didn't have to be at Churchill to feel it, I'm sure it was exponentially more electric being there. .

"God has spoken" and Zenyatta is the chosen one . Priaise the Lord .

They also spun her around, put a piñata up at the finish line, and gave her a stick to carry in her teeth during the race. To win, she not only had to finish first, she had to knock out all the candy.

so her close second outweighs all the bs racing she did the rest of the year? if she doesn't get hoy, it isn't her fault. that responsibility lies squarely on her owners shoulders.

Obviously. They put all their chips on red and it came up black. It isn't much harder than that to understand.
