What an absolute sin. Joseph was a character that brought so much to this board. Sometimes it was good, sometimes it wasn't, but he was always entertaining. He loved the game so much and would take time to post his opinions and discuss the game with anyone. The only other thing he liked to talk about more than racing was his children, I know he loved them so much. My deepest condolences go out to his family. We lost a good one way before his time.

RIP Joseph.

This is sad and horrible news. Prayers to his children and family. I can’t help but think the Baffert horses might be getting a little extra push from now on.

RIP to our friend. Joe was such a character and I loved running into him at Saratoga for the entertainment if nothing else. His passion for the game was unmatched.

Life is too short, soak it all in.
