Great choice Plen, and congrats on your points win.

Maryland Million Day provides a wonderful opportunity to remember its founder, Jim McKay, and see whether we experience "the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat."

Me too. That was painful to look at, but I think that guy, survived. I think he was from Croatia or somewhere like that. I don't know why, but sports seemed more interesting in those days. Maybe because we had guys like Jim McKay and Howard Cosell and others and athletes like Broadway Joe and Muhammad Ali that were just more entertaining than the athletes of today.

Nice choice Plen and nice win too. I think we play the Maryland Millions card annually this time of year (I know redundant) before the Breeders Cup.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 04:53 PM.
