Herb McCauly
 
Really nice article on Herb from the Bloodhorse...http://news.bloodhorse.com/viewstory.asp?id=41420.

Nice to see him comeback and be able to ride again. I for one can appriciate his "need" to ride again. It's almost like an illness and one that can never be cured. I hope he does well and can win some more big ones down the road.

It is inspiring he was able to come back. I hope he does well.

You know.. I read stuff like that and wonder why are you even interested in horseracing? Why is it that you can't feel good about Herb McCauley getting back in the saddle after all that he's been through? I mean if this was an article about Patrick Venezuala then I guess I could understand.

because it's much easier to be a d*ck than to come on here and give anything that might be helpful, like picking a winner..

Emmett Fitz-Hume 10-19-2007 08:13 PM

How about a little breeder's cup contest between us.. 1 horse each race, $2 WP.. total money wins.. no money, just fun.

Emmett Fitz-Hume 10-19-2007 08:19 PM

For someone who cares so much about Herb "McCauly" the least you could do is spell his name right.

Funny.. Reading all this B.S made me feel like I was back in elemetary.. No. I don't "care" about Herb McCauley I just thought it was a good feel good story, and thought I would share it with those on here that actually LIKE to see GOOD things written about horseracing... With some of the replies I read on this site makes me wonder why some are even on here other than to just be D*cks.

You know who the real "d*ck" is? A guy who chooses alcohol and gambling over his wife and children. Excuse me if I have no sympathy for that scumbag. And this is at least the second "world's smallest violin" story that the attention whore has shared with the media. I just don't buy his story. He's not being completely honest with himself or his family.

Oh lord, I almost forgot about that clown.
I remember him spending time this spring explaining how Cowtown Cat and Scat Daddy were going to be big factors in the Derby, and that Street Sense had no chance because a horse HAD to have three preps to win that race.
And of course......who could forget "Java out."

Yep, I was a Scat Daddy supporting clown too... in all fairness, he was injured in that race, so I guess there's no real way to tell if he would have had a shot. I do think he would have run better than almost dead last, though...

As for these other clowns on here, lighten up! Not everyone is going to share the same opinion as you, so don't take it personal.

I wasn't saying he was a clown because he liked Scat Daddy's chances in the Derby.
He was a clown for a lot of reasons.
