I have no interest in a TC winner for a bunch of money hungry owners, a cheating trainer, a horse that had no real 2yo campaign, no 4yo campaign, and did nothing amazing as a 3yo outside of beating up on a crappy crop. Call me crazy but to ask for one of these expectations to be filled for the first TC winner in 30 years doesn't seem too much to ask.

Not a troll at all. Just not as advanced as the majority it seems. I like Big Brown because he was so impressive at Fl. Derby so I've picked him twice. Both $200 bets to win in The Derby and Preakness in which I won $480 and under $50 respectively. Maybe I am a "moron" for making the Preakness bet, but I felt very confident he would win. It makes me enjoy the race knowing there is a little action on it. Even if he lost, big deal, it is $200. I can afford it so why does that make me a moron. I guess I can take some of my Big Brown winnings and buy the book

One other point is we are talking about how good Big Brown is or isn't? I know it is important to want to like the owners or trainers and while they are suspect, let's not let that take away from Big Brown (who is the one actually competing). He shouldn't be penalized because of his connections being suspect.
