A new low...

The unnamed Keeneland official was probably one of the hundreds of people who, like me, were watching the race -- saw it happen and yelled at the TV "was that teuflesburg?! phuck her. i phucking hate Jamie Sanders, for running her cash cow into the ground to pay all to bills she racks up while sporting a non-teuflesburg winning percentage of 1%. who didn't see this coming at some point? I HATE HER."

Only, they pretended they saw a workout that said the same thing that we were all thinking.

But not good for my otherwise favorite part of that ESPN team for running with an unverifiable rumor at a time like that.

i agree 50%. she should have reported the soundness issue before the race but if she was not able to get it in then after the race was ok. it was newsworthy and definately worth reporting in the context that she did.

Are you kidding? There was no soundness issue until after the race...She didn't 'report' on anything, just offered up an unnamed sources "opinion", post breakdown. If there was mention of this horse not working up to par before the race then I agree it would be fair game. However post race it looks senationalistic and lacking in class.

So in comparison how does this compare to the snide remarks thrown not too long ago about some individuals not getting ESPN in jail?

This lady is a reporter with class unlike others, not saying that Jerry B, Randy M etc don't quite the contrary. To throw her under the bus on this is laughable at best from my eyes, and I do respect your opinion Chuck Simon as you make your living in this business. With that said, she did what she is paid to do, reported what she knows from her "source", "sources" and life goes on. She brings more to most broadcasts then she gets credit for - she speaks with a clear concise voice, well spoken and has knowledge of the game inside out.

If you can't understand the difference between snide remarks about a couple of criminals in jail and spreading unfounded rumors about a horse being vanned off the track with a broken leg then there is nothing more that I can say that you will get.

Her camera prescence or voice have nothing to do with this. Suggesting that this horse may have been compromised before the race and using "unnamed sources" is a cheap, sensationalistic job of reporting. If she had some real evidence or the matter had been brought up before the horse ran, I have no problem with them rehashing it.

And though my personal feeling is that this horse has been mismanaged pretty much his whole career, there is zero shot that if a prominent trainer has trained this horse there would have never been any mention of "unnamed sources".

There is a Grand Jury who says Curlin's owners are guilty and the evidence will be shown, true or not in court. Edwards will never name her source and is that guy who talks to dead people related to her? That's the situation that's comparable to me. "I'm getting a message from a clocker?" LMAO
