I would love it. Stevens is a lot of things, but dude can flat out ride (one knee or not) and I would love to see him make a comeback and teach these new guys a thing or two.

i don't think i will ever forget tho that whacky arlington million finish when he and his mount had it won, and the horse ducked out and dropped him right at the line. that had to hurt his pride a lot more than his backside.
