mclem0822 03-26-2012 11:41 AM

Thank goodness.....
 
Sounds like he ok and tweeting about it. Get well Bob, and get home safe after you recuperate.

pucknut 03-26-2012 11:48 AM

wow go BOB recover quicly

Merlinsky 03-26-2012 11:57 AM

Apparently the universe decided Bob's horses were doing too well and, instead of losing some races to balance things out, it opted for this. Glad to hear he's okay. Ya know, he really needs to calm down and be more laid back. ;) Get well soon, Bob!

trackrat59 03-26-2012 01:57 PM

Shocked to hear this news.

Glad he's doing well. Hope you can come home soon Bob.

this really calls for one of Morty's (or whatever he goes by now) "who is Baffert?"

Glad to hear he should be ok.

What exactly is he trying to sell? And how can I buy 8 of them?

Patrick333 03-26-2012 06:13 PM

You should take down the avatar and send the guy some flowers considering you probably mushed him into having a heart attack.

Seriously, if you like Baffert as much as you profess to, you really should remove his photo as your avatar.

Riot 03-28-2012 02:17 PM

One very lucky guy. Right place, right time, right hospital. Hope he continues to recover well with his second opportunity at life.

She's more deserving of an eclipse than Joe Drape.

No its not?? It very much was. Massive heart attack with blocked arteries at 100 and 90 percent. Yahoo that if you need 2. Then tell me his life was not on the line. It says a lot about how strong bob is, what a guy. A lot of ppl would have went into the light and faded away, not the goat. He's a warrior.

I'm envisioning a scene of you actually meeting Baffert and I can't stop laughing.

Does the scenerio involve stalking and undercover police?
