This thread wasn't prompted by people saying that Lost In The Fog was "impressive" ... it was prompted by people saying that he was "great."

I haven't seen anyone say that Lost In The Fog's winning streak wasn't impressive ... just some folks ... myself included ... saying that such a winning streak against mediocre opponents doesn't equate to greatness.

I stand by my brilliant analogy.
