but then, just think if alex had won the derby and preakness like he did the preakness and belmont. there'd have been 1374 threads about him and his sure tc win leading up to the race in new york.


Just think Danzig, it may not stop there. Wait until he wins, that's when all the tradition loons will start another 1,000 threads about how he's not deserving, conspriacy theories, he's actually a robot, etc. etc. etc. In kind of reminds me of Oracle talking about the Yankees.

I'll stick around until June 8th only to see some of the crazy posts the day after, then after that I'll take a sabbatical until Saratoga. Hopefully by then some of the dust will have settled.
