Default Eriluis Vaz says he is sorry

So is Tiger Woods.

Reminds me of a drunk driver after getting a DWI. I'm sorry.

Well, just as long as he's sorry.

Oh, and if Tiger doesn't go back to his wife, I'm more than willing to take his place.

If Tiger goes back? He is the one who has this choice? LOL. A woman with that kind of self esteem and self respect isnt much of a catch. You're probably a lot better off in your current situation, whatever that may be.

Not if you include the 300 million or so she is going to get.

We already have this year's Eclipse award winner for photography. Where's the suspense in that?

I'd say a five year ban is about what he deserves, but I doubt he gets it.

If Tiger does go back to her, I'd be willing to take his place(s)!

Sad to say, but the popularity of racing would probably skyrocket with that idea.

Default Should Be Ruled OFF

I as an owner would have been CRAZY if either of those horses were mine. Spend thousands of dollars every month for 2 jockeys to get into it. Not only were they jeopardizing the horses they were riding but all the other horses and riders. I hope they both get ruled off for minimum 5 years if not forever. I cant imagine them not suspending them they could have caused some serious damage to way too many people and horses.

And to make sure everyone tries their best,as soon as the gates open,release hungry lions or Siberian tigers to chase them around the oval.Jockeys will dress like Gladiators,and the losers will be sent to the dungeons.OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!
