I agree w/ much of what you are saying but I dont agree there are few legitimate contenders. I dont think I can recall a derby w/ so many. I count maybe 8 or 9.
I would think that you would agree as your pet theory this year is that the field is so bad. Bad field = more contenders? Would think it would work like that in most scenarios. Great field = less contenders?
SO what ARE you saying? There are few legit contenders and these are so bad? Then why do the PPs seem to be so in line?
