Yes it was lucky, I hit the Triple.....yup, boxed my birthday in the triple.
With that said, I'm still bummed that I didn't see a Triple Crown Winner. There's always next year.

Something most likely went physically wrong with BB. That really wouldn't be a surprise to like 99% of anybody who watches this sport. Rick is in the 1% who evidently thinks he is somehow immune to this. You would pretty much have to think that way to trashtalk like he does. He is a bit out of touch with reality. Reality is that horses can get beat. Some evidently think it's cute ,or colorful to ignore reality. No, it isn't. It's the same grandiose way that criminals think when they keep taking chances. They simply don't even consider getting caught. They can't. It isn't in them. They lack that. Acceptance of the idea that you might fail is very important. It means you plan for the good and the bad. It means you don't take unrealistic risks that threaten your future. If this guy doesn't get help, he will end up in a bad way. If you don't respect failure as being a very real possibility, then that little "cute" personality thing is gunna catch up with you.
