Hollywood takes out half-page ad for Zenyatta's HOTY candidacy

[randallscott35]

The better question is should a track be doing stuff like this?

A f.ucking award...


The sport is doomed.

If one of the voters is swayed by a 1/2 page ad that Hollywood Park puts out...they shouldn't have a vote. The ad just gives goobers something to talk about.

That did not answer my question. To me a track shouldn't be doing things like this. IMO

You're absolutely right. What the hell does Hollywood gain by doing this? It's sour grapes from an organization that can certainly spend their money, even if the amount is considered infinitessimal by a racetrack's standards.

i'd rather tracks spent their ad money trying to build the sport.

she should have been running in open company against better than the likes of taptam. she should have run an hoy campaign, like blame did. like rachel did. if you have to beg for votes, just how big a HOY are you?
if miss lizzie sue ran in the five races zenyatta ran in, won, and then was suggested as being hoy material, you'd be jumping down their throat.

Since Vic so generously told everyone how much he made last year, and we all know how much happiness Zenyatta brought to Vic, I think he should take out a full page ad.

Maybe in the ad he can also tell even more people his 2010 earnings as well.

That wasn't what I made last year. That's just the Rosario portion. Thanks for taking something I was trying to share from my heart and belittling it. Inspires me to continue to share things.

Oh, you shared your $260K, now part, income to be kind to the little folk. How could I have missed that?

Vic, the disingenuous act isn't fooling anyone. If you actually think " sharing " your income, especially when PART of it is over a quarter of a million dollars, is a way of interacting with others, then I suggest you use your now self-imposed free time to do a little soul searching. Personally, and I've been wrong before, I think you know exactly what you did, and now we can use this as definitive proof that your " interacting with the little people " has been exactly the act that most, if not all, have always taken it for.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. My opinion is that you speak about me personally and don't know me. That's cool. Part of the internet experience.

Actually, until you wrote that post about your income, I had JUST told Byk that you seemed like a good guy with a good sense of humor.

Go ahead....ask him.

The post wasn't about my income. It was trying to explain why I chose to make changes in my life. DRF reported that I had resigned from Tyler Baze. Some people wondered why. I chose to share. I'd write more but I gotta get BYK on the phone. I'm not going on with my day until he tells me I'm OK with you.

Like I said.....you now have the free time to figure this one out. I'll hope for the best for you.

This Rare Bog guy doesn't mess around.

Gee who is this Rare Bog?

How could you accuse any poster of not knowing you when you (moments earlier) admit to sharing things, like your deepest and most heart-felt thoughts. You post under your own name for goodness sake, how can you take umbrage with the "internet experience" while feeding it like that? The narcissism runs so deep on so many levels.

Check with me in three years when we can have a beer and discuss things. Till then. Go to your room.

Congrats on the tax cut extension Vic.
