don't the best horses win the best races w/ the best purses?? besides, ap indy moved to #1--i bet your argument won't be the same with him!!
And I have to say that Seattle Slew led the sires list in 1983 (I think?) because of Slew O'Gold's bonus for winning the Woodward and Gold Cup...I'm sorry, I know this isn't exactly correct; I just know SOG got a huge bonus.

Why are you bringing Indy into this? Oh, I know........oh, nevermind. I'm not going to get into another argument. I just have to be prepared for snide comments about my bias towards Indy whenever I post something that doesn't jibe with what other people think, even if Indy has nothing to do with it. Well, there's still plenty of time for Indy to drop from the top spot.
