TVG blurb in last..what a ****ing day

[The Bid]

I dont think they could possibly be serious about what he makes. If he makes 8 bucks an hour, he spent roughly 20% of his take home weekly salary on a pick4. That guy was too old to make 8 bones an hour

I thought Joe Talamo also gave her a great ride splitting horses to the inside late.

As far as Schrupp and Bray goes, it was pretty entertaining stuff. The line about the car being worth $500 dollars, and that is with a $100 bill in the glove compartment was hillarious. I had nothing on the race and I was rooting for the guy, and was it Michael Baze who dropped the F-Bomb?

1st question, if she had been my selection pre-paddock....and then I waited to wager until after I saw her quickly settle in after hitting the track, I would have still bet her. Once at Bay Meadows I did NOT bet a first time on the track $300,000 or so purchase filly because of her paddock actions.....she had to be dragged kicking out of the tunnel. She still won the race. Important things in watching Spenditallbaby were she did not seem to cause herself any harm in the paddock, and then she immediately settled down when the towel was removed from her head.

As to the F-Bombs, there were possibly two. The bettor was wired and let loose with a F**kin eh! after the loss. Then a few minutes later TVG aired the Michael Baze stretch and finish with the audio from the mike HE was wearing. They caught his in time to bleep it, but it sounded like he used the F-Bomb as an adverb as the race ended.

you'd be surprised. i have a guy working for me who makes about that much, he just turned 62. now, he was making more, but since he started on social security, he can only make so much a month....but he made some bad choices, had a bankruptcy a few years ago, so after his garnishment, sometimes he HAS no paycheck.
