Certainly, those close to me have felt retirement after the upcoming triple crown series was the right way to go out.

However, this season still looks very promising. There is continuing instability in the Paddock with a fresh collection of recent new arrivals. Not to mention the random wild card of a PG 1985 meltdown and subsquent banning which normally comes days after the Derby.

Esoteric Central has markedly declined over the last year or so...it's basically a ghost-town littered with mostly lame threads and slapdick quality posts. However, the sudden revival of Beulah Racing could lead to an Eso Cent form reversal.

Politics/Society is unarguably the biggest sh!thole going...however, we do have a Presidential election coming up drenched in class and racial overtones.

Sports Bar & Grill is again relevant to me as Randy Moss is currently employed with the San Fran 49ers and is still doing self-hosted Internet TV shows.

I am going to take my girlfriend out to a nice dinner at TGI Friday's tonight and explain the situation as gently as possible to her.

You had me at rate the hats

A Fireside Chat?

Sure, ask away.

No subject or topic is off limit.

If the derby was today and no one was compromised by post position, who would you use as key horses?

Dullahan, Daddy Knows Best, and Creative Cause will be on all of my tickets.

Those are clearly the three most likely horses to finish on the board imo.

Dullahan and Daddy Knows Best are (even with Trinniberg in) still more likely to finish 2nd or 3rd than win.

It's a large field and a competitive race ... the winner is sometimes unpredictable because they show a tactical dimension no one could have confidently predicted before the race.

If Zenyatta is omnipotent, can she create a boulder that even she can't lift?

I don't know what omnipoten even means.

I just found Zenyatta's first two races on VHS tape complete with TVG coverage. Ken Rudolph predicted she would win the KY Oaks right after her 2nd career start...considering she was just a month away from turning age 4 ... anything is possible I suppose.
