Full page back cover ad in Rolling Stone with the tag line "Win or die trying"...

At least they are trying to market it to a different/new audience

The the problem with that slogan is that (at least I did) people are going to think about the horses dying and not the jockeys.

"Couldn't run out of sight on a dark night."
The Green Monkey just got a trivia question shout out at the commercial break. Hmm I wonder what's the most money paid for a TB racehorse (obviously as a racing prospect not as a stallion prospect)...$2.5 mil, $7 mil, could it be....$16 million? Yup, that was easy.

Loved Brandon Meier talking to his Dad about his win and then looking at the camera and saying 'he must have been out with ONE of his g/f's' , on the day before Valentines Day. I know someone who's in trouble. Good Luck Randy.

I thought this week's episodes were much better than last week's.


the one thing that bothers me is the phony racecalls from Trevor Denman.
