who the heck is the Pricci guy anyway?

and yes, Steve, you should definately take that article as a compliment, considering who you are mentioned along side!

Hypocrisy at its finest! My Mommy told me never to criticize anyone in my profession (which is actual sound advice, though it doesnt seem to apply to racing- I believe that is because the nature of pari-mutuel betting)... then goes on to criticize 5 people in his profession!! (well maybe its his profession, but he doesnt seem to be much good at it)

He's been around a long time. He was a guest on Inside Racing more than a few times in the 90's.

not enough LOL's in the column.

also didnt use the word Goldilocks!

Though Booth did make some appearances in the comments

Booth and Pricci seem to be on the same intellect level (not that I can talk)

Pricci's level of intellect FAR exceeds Smooth Operator's. He was actually a pretty decent horse racing analyst at one time ... however, I believe there is no fire left in his tank, that there is nothing left to prove, and now he's like watching a champion boxer fight beyond his prime, that, in short, he deserves better and deserves to go home.

Pricci is just a bitter, washed up turf writer. The true idiocy is in the reader comments. Those lunatics are some real geniuses!
