I don't know how you can bet any horse in that type of heat. The turf come thursday is going to be like a dirt track. Go with No Reason in the feature on Thursday.

No way will I be there. Lansdon is arriving today and he hates that kind of heat as well and the plan is to go someplace on Broadway like the Stadium that has TVG and bet out of his account and drink beer in the air conditioing while ogling hot waitresses. I think its an outstanding plan.

It should be nice for Saturday, and there is a 50-50 shot I am going. I have to see this Invasor character live.

I will be rooting for Flower Alley. I root for any horse that once had something to do with Walnut Green.

I agree. In fact it sounds like heaven when the weather is like it is. The food there is way above average for a sports bar and the beer is always served very cold. Have fun while I freeze in my AC office, with no TVG and no way to bet!

Lansdon ususally has outstanding plans. He's not a CEO for no reason!!! LOL!

You may as well stick around and watch the Yankees play the Blue Jays at 7. Not sure if Landson is a baseball fan but I know it must be exciting to watch Abreui, who makes his Yankee debut tonight. I know I'll be watching.

Gander, I'm curious why the "i" at the end...am i missing a joke?

Gander · #10 08-01-2006, 01:38 PM

Man am I mispelling his name? Sorry, for some reason I thought it ended in
an i. No joke intended.

I wasn't ripping on you....I was confused that's all. He's on the front page of the Harrisburg sports page for two years, only way I knew.

Once again to anyone who is here who cannot stomach 100 degrees with no A/C available, head on over to the Stadium on Broadway. Great wings and burgers, cold reasonably priced beer and all sports and most importantly TVG on big screens. Much better way to enjoy tomorrows action than sweating it out in jungle like conditions.

Gander · #13 08-01-2006, 04:07 PM

Mike-
I have a pretty slamming work schedule this whole month but I'll try to come down tomorrow (possibly during lunch) and say hi. Still havent net Landson so that would be an added plus. Enjoy.

Geeez, wish I was there. Instead I'm stuck here(NE Ohio) without AC and I think its 110 in the shade. If there was any shade. I rode 20 miles on Sat., the only relief was swimming my pony in the river. Thank God I have a pool!! I've been in it about 133 times today. I usually love warm weather, but this is overkill. I could use some AC and a cold brewski right about now.

Suzanne(i'm melting!)

Be careful...Mike may try and get into a fight with some guys there....LMFAO

Now I know why you guys live up there.

Man the summers here would kill. I still gotta get outside though. Plenty of water, put on the sunscreen and go after the redfish. They love the flats this time of year.

OR... fix the car, fix the roof, fix the kayak... Im dyin today. It gets down to 85 at night, so we got that going anyway. Cold showers are great for many reasons.

For the redfish, a trip to the flats between Aransas Pass and Port Aransas is in order.

Upper right hand corner. And you live in ...?
