To My Fellow DT'ers
 

We are a crazy, kooky fraternity here on this site. No matter what's been said through the years, praise or derogative commentary.....I pray for you and your family's safety if you are in the path of Hurricane Sandy.

Hope that those who were planning to attend the BC are able to get through the first part of the week without too much incident. And then still be able to get out west for the fun.

Agree - keep safe, east coasters, and I hope afterwards everyone can get west for the BC if that's their plans.

And I hope the horses on Long Island and under hurricane threat are kept safe, too.

I know some BC horses are flying out of New York tonight, to Louisville.

Derogative commentary?

Where?!

Sorry. How about spirited banter?

I had the same thoughts and was going to make a similar thread.

Everybody stay safe. This is one serious storm. Make preparations and keep your heads.

It will all be in the rear view mirror come Friday for Breeders Cup Day 1.

It looks like this thing is headed right for the Jersey Shore and is making a perfect strike into Erie right before it starts to soften up.




I loaded up on Jack, Coke (the liquid kind) and Ice. Also got some lunch meats and rolls in case this closes down the food joints.

Worst case scenario is that the possible 65 MPH winds and 25 foot waves on Lake Erie cause me to go a few hours without electricity and make it hard to get sleep with all the noise.

It will be awesome if we see devastation on the Jersey Shore.

Think of Katrina in New Orleans, except instead of looters loading up on beer like this guy...





You'll see spray tanned Guidos wading through waist high water with blue tubs full of looted hair products.

Are you finally seeing the comedic awesomeness of your species?

Pretty scary out in Mt Holly, NJ right now. Amazed that power is still on.

...hope things go as well as possible for you.

My recollection is that it was always scary in Mt. Holly, NJ:rolleyes:

Thinking I should handicap for mud @ Parx tomorrow... LOL...

Good luck down there Chuck, stay safe. Winds are whipping around here (central NJ), thank God we haven't lost power (as of yet). Unfortunately its going to get worse before it gets better.

So much for the power, gonna be a long night.

Power and sat tv still on which has to be close to a miracle. Going to check horses in a little while which should be an adventure

So much for the power

now that really sucks!!!

Other than a 47-yard Touchdown catch by Randy Moss ... which felt like an LSD flashback to the year 1998 ... you guys didn't miss much.

I remember being a kid, being glad we were out of school etc. Now, as a father and a property owner, I dread these storms. I am hoping for the best for all of you affected by this storm.

I remember being a kid and watching Moss make cuts like those two on that TD catch and make complete fools of defenders.

That was his only target of the entire night.

You should download that TD to your laptop so that when you lose power, you have some porn to use to bate with.

Moss still has it. Smith commented after the game, "We only have one ball to go around, it's tough to get it to everybody." Wouldn't you want it in the hands of a guy like that more often? If anyone else on either team catches that ball, they don't turn it into a TD. He made a couple of good blocks as well. To be fair, he did miss a block outside on the corner he didn't try that hard on, that would have sprung Gore for a long TD.

TVG is showing reruns of old races. Just watched the Citation, won by Lerouidesanimaux. Nice to see Bobby Frankel in his glory.

Power just came back on. I hope the DT'ers in the northeast are okay. Snow's starting up again in a few minutes apparently, so I'm doing what I can to get caught up in case the wind comes back with it.

ABC news was here.

What kind of an idiot surfs in Lake Erie when it's 40 degrees out?

An Eridiot?

I'm in downtown Manhattan and things are pretty bad here, no power at all below 26th street. Thank god there is electricity above 30th street in most parts and I am central enough to not be in area under water. Not much information and seems like no federal help, have seen no one offering supplies. I live in a 17 story high rise on the 11th floor and we have no power or water as well. Was told yesterday that it would take 3-5 days to restore power. Many elderly in building and things are rough. I am in a bar just to charge phones. Hope everyone is safe. BC not looking good for me right now unfortunately.

hang in pointman..and sure your just charging your phone :rolleyes:

Thanks, Hooves! The perks of charging are not so bad. $25 minimum for 1 hour, and I don't plan on missing the minimum. First good thing to happen in a few days.
