I just want to make this thread 15 pages long as we talk about a quarter crack, which can be as insignificant as a hangnail, or as significant as... well, whatever.

The bottom line is this: If QR is healthy, he's in the gate. If QR is not healthy, he's not in the gate.

And many of those posts aren't mindless one-liners either ... in fact, some are even true DrugSian quality efforts.

Cannon has won battles in The Paddock on topics ranging as wide as from 'who is the best 3yo in the last 20 years' to 'what color hat will Kent Desormeaux's wife wear next'

He has won battles in the Political section in elegant and professional fashion on topics ranging as widely as 'How would your presidential adminstration differ from Obamas' to 'Maureen Dowd - sexy milf or leftist nutjob?'

In the Sports section he has masterfully showcased a wide range of skill - from debating who the best NBA players of all-time are by position and even showing his work .. all the way to posting a Youtube video of a fat, loudly weaping Giants fan with a Jew-Fro in tears over a playoff loss.

It was meant more as a light hearted knock than a compliment....

Just because you can't follow a race without a color coated saddle towell system doesn't mean you have to take it out on me.

Ok?

I just don't believe those two have the coordination to play ping-pong.

It's my belief that Quality Road will not be in the gate on Derby Day. I just don't like hearing stuff like this this close to the race. You need things to almost go perfectly and I'm sure that in almost every barn, nothing goes perfectly but I believe that this incident leans more towards significant than it does towards insignificant. They become battles you have to fight daily and it's different when you are working with a horse that you can pull back with and map out your own schedule. When you are dealing with a set schedule, I think it compromises what you planned on doing. I hope he's there but if I had to make a bet either way today, I'd bet he won't be.
