OK ... it's time once again to tell the "Brunelleschi" story.
When the rich Renaiassance city of Florence decided to build a huge new cathedral ... they held a competition to determine who would be the chief architect.
When it was Brunelleschi's turn to be interviewed by the city council ... he passed an egg around the table ... and asked each council member if he could stand the egg on its end. One by one ... the council members failed to get the egg to stand on its end.
Brunelleschi then took the egg ... cracked it on the table ... and said "There ... now it's standing on its end."
The council members looked at Brunelleschi and said ... "Oh, well ... we could have done that."
And Brunelleschi said to them ... "Yes ... you could have ... but you didn't."
So ... maybe you could have said that Bernardini was the most talented 3YO way back in early March ...
... but you didn't.
