what a surprise: FG is OFF the TURF again

[the_fat_man]

I realize there are days that races must come off the turf but unless we're in the tropics and it's rainy season, I don't see why they need to cancel as much as they've been.

We are sub-tropical and it is the rainy season, winter is our rainy season.

You should check our weather before you cap the turf races they have predicted this storm since Monday. We have very severe storms coming in about 1 hour. I wouldn't be surprised if the later part of the card gets cancelled if it is as bad as it is supposed to be and comes in when it's supposed to. We're also under tornado warnings.

Here's some links to local weather

My yard and fields are like walking on deep sponges when it rains, still haven't dried up since the last storms.

They've also cancelled Mardi Gras parades for this evening, but that doesn't mean we cancelled Mardi Gras.

Yet another tough beat. I spent two hours handicapping the parades last night.

Yikes.... that is tough, all that work.
OK beware then for Fat Tuesday calling for 50% chance of rain and warm.
What's the m/l someone will fall off a Zulu float?

Very OT here but I loved Amorres Perros, you mentioned it ages ago. Your very good at handicapping movies too. Have gotten the whole trilogy, just haven't watched 21 grams yet. Anymore movie suggestions?

[blackthroatedwind]

Recent movies I would recommend the Diving Bell and the Butterfly.....but it's tough topping Amores Perros.

Glad you liked it. Love's a bitch.

Now don't anyone let that get in your way of being unreasonably pissed off, but thanks for the warning.

Does this mean they are off the turf at Oaklawn?
