Pval returns with a million dollar race win

[SCUDSBROTHER]

The odd thing about Pat is that whatever issues he has:

1)seem to bother others (that he has no contact with)a lot more than him.He has always been a pretty upbeat guy.This is a very positive person.Matter of fact,too positive,for some folks.If I have one complaint against the guy,it is the depression state that was claimed a few years back.This is one guy that has been given the gift of a positive attitude.I can't really see the guy being depressed more than a day or 2 about anything.I think he is one of the most positive/confident people I have ever seen.

2)haven't been an issue in any of the races he has ridden in.This guy has been riding off and on for what 27 years now? I haven't heard one complaint from anybody about him being high while riding a horse.Has he ever been accused of being reckless for any other reason than that he is ultra-aggressive? I don't think so.

I know this guy has botched fewer rides % wise for me than most all of those guys out there.To me,he appears to be a horseplayer's best friend.Not only that,but he is doing what he was evidently created to do(ride horses.)He is a productive member of society.Can you really ask much more than that from a drug addict? How many drug addicts help their daughters etc. get through College or whatever they want to do in life.Lets not just ignore the fact that this guy has a lot of family and friends in those winners circle photos.How many drug addicts even have a relationship of any kind with their kids,and family? I want the guy "clean" when he rides. As far as I can tell,he is.I think if people knew how dehydrated these jocks sometimes are(to make weight,)they would be a lot more worried about that than what some experienced high-performing jock does when he isn't riding for a few weeks or months.
