He had to wear his helmet in the interview so his brain wouldn't leak all over the floor.

Peppers Pride: Greatest Horse Ever? Well, she's never been beaten. How can you argue with perfection?

I can't wait for the wildly inaccurate Disney movie about her in 10 years.

What brain dude?

I thought he was wearing the helmet so all the Zenyattards watching could tell the difference between the interviewer and the interviewee.

OMG! That's so kewl!!

In post position order, we have

1. Ruffian
2. Zenyatta
3. Rachel Alexandra
4. Smarty Jones
5. Cigar
6. Citation
7. Big Brown
8. Barbaro
9. Seabiscuit.
10. Affirmed

This is a race at Pimlico going the Preakness distance.

I like how most of them are under the whip right away.

I also like how the race is sponsored by CBS and 60 Minutes.

Zenyatta first, followed by Citation, Affirmed, Cigar, Seabiscuit, Ruffian, Barbaro, Smarty Jones, Big Brown and to put the cherry on top, Rachel Alexandra last!!

Seriously, these Zenyattards that absolutely have no grip on reality, they are portrayed perfectly in Idiocracy.

She might be 1/5 next weekend. If she runs, that is.

Barbaro only ran at PIM once, and that distance once. How do they program those things?

And why did they pick him anyway?
