Tom Amoss comment

I saw it & didn't think it was that big a deal. I admit it was a bit awkward, but someone clarified that this was something that Ken Rudolph apparently yells on the show.

Yea, basically they asked him to say something like Ken Rudolf does and he said "I am not your monkey"....I guess its a Jon Stewart thing, whoever that is.

RE: "I'm not your monkey" ...from Amoss to Schrupp when Todd told him to do something that Ken usually does, which is some lame Mike Smith shout-out. Basically Amoss was telling him to eff off in a joking manner.

Saw it and was shocked how P-C scared they reacted to it. It was a reference to a John Stewart comment from I believe the Daily Show.

I've never met any of these guys, but it seemed pretty harmless. I would hope it doesn't get any heat from it.

the awkwardness and bad televisionness of the moment was punishment enough for everyone. My guess is that Rudolph would have laughed had he been in the room.

It's a good thing Amoss doesn't post in the Politics forum.

Tom Amoss is a tool anyways. And McCarron, while a GREAT jockey, hey buddy they run the races in the afternoon not in morning workouts...

Shrupp set him up. Tvg needs to dump Shrupp and if they are going to keep Ken , he needs to stop with the " Good luck and enjoy" before each race.

Wow. What a shocker! A TVG sucks thread. It's Christmas morning for horseplayers kids. Can't we have just one day of peace?
