who the heck is the Pricci guy anyway?

and yes, Steve, you should definately take that article as a compliment, considering who you are mentioned along side!

Hypocrisy at its finest! My Mommy told me never to criticize anyone in my profession (which is actual sound advice, though it doesnt seem to apply to racing- I believe that is because the nature of pari-mutuel betting)... then goes on to criticize 5 people in his profession!! (well maybe its his profession, but he doesnt seem to be much good at it)

He was never called a moron by me, which seems to be his pressing agenda, though he has provided plenty of fodder for that now. On the Monday after the Personal Ensign, on TV and on ATR, I said, "calls on the internet for Rachel Alexandra's immediate retirement based on her tiring late in the race are moronic. Is anyone suggesting Life at Ten immediately be retired?"

At that time a comment writer at his website told Pricci that I had called him a moron to which Pricci then wrote several insulting things directed at me. I thought that silly and petty, but never said a thing about it. Pricci has seen me 3-4 times since then and not said a word, but obviously he has been laboring under the weight of this imagined slight.

So three months later here is this deranged and stunningly incoherent missive making little sense about anything except how anyone that has any dissenting opinion regarding Zenyatta's immortality deserves excoriation. I won't dignify his lunacy with any further comment, but I will say it's one of the greatest compliments to my career thus far to be included in a grouping with Andy Serling and Steve Crist, as well as fellow SiriusXM broadcasters Bill Finley and Dave Johnson.

Ala the famous Kent D. Bermuda rant....

I didn't listen to it, but how was it a failure of Steve's when Kent has publicly stated he has an issue?

Antitrust32 11-18-2010 02:17 PM

I just cant believe the ejit wrote a whole article about a radio segment he admits to never listening to!

The Kent D interview was classic radio. FFS the guy was on vacation give him a break.

Some of those comments are a little over the top. #109 in particular.

He's been around a long time. He was a guest on Inside Racing more than a few times in the 90's.

NTamm1215 11-18-2010 02:47 PM

Smooth Operator has made an appearance in comment #112.

not enough LOL's in the column.

also didnt use the word Goldilocks!

Though Booth did make some appearances in the comments

Booth and Pricci seem to be on the same intellect level (not that I can talk)

Even more so are hand wringing and whimpering drama queens - they have been around since the start of the Agricultural Revolution more than 10k years ago - when human beings were able to produce enough food to sustain such babies.

Poor guy thinks Kasept and BTW have him in mind whenever they state their opinions on the air .. like they're studying his work and have some agenda to make him look bad.

Pricci's level of intellect FAR exceeds Smooth Operator's. He was actually a pretty decent horse racing analyst at one time ... however, I believe there is no fire left in his tank, that there is nothing left to prove, and now he's like watching a champion boxer fight beyond his prime, that, in short, he deserves better and deserves to go home.

He's done enough?

I was unaware that John Pricci was a teenage girl...
