Wait, did you mean "main owners" or "Maine owners"? This thread has me very confused.

LOL....I bypassed the nature-boy-by-the-sea stuff. It doesn't bug me. I struggle more with tuning in than tuning out.

Now you've really hurt me. I'm going to kill one of your other puppies for that.

Oh goody. On the NBC coverage he just told Costas that he's all for the federal legislation going down right now, likes 3 strikes and you're out, and wants to see the FBI get involved. If he ever got called to give his opinion before a Congressional committee, break out the popcorn cuz Barry's gonna put on a show.

The industry owes Dale Romans a enormous debt of gratitude for sparing all of us three more weeks of Irwin's insufferable blowhard act. As was said to me after his post-Derby spew, 'everyone in the game knows what a miserable prick Barry Irwin is, and now everyone else does too'.

Wouldn't it be great though if you had a whole show with Barry Irwin, Satish Sanan, and Mike Gill as the panelists ? What an entertaining debate that would be.

I guess it's all perspective. I would have found Graham Motion going for a TC the next 3 weeks pretty enjoyable compared to the last t-bred trainer who went for one 3 years ago. The only conclusion I can come to is what a d-bag Motion must be to train horses for a guy like Irwin. That's a shame because I was sort of impressed with the guy. Because certainly if Motion had any class or sense whatsoever, when a prick like Irwin called him and asked him if he would train his horses, MOtion would have told him to f off wouldn't he??

Yikes Mike! I think we'd need to bring Bill Maher in to handle that...

My ears are bleeding just thinking about that trio...you would have to take away my belt and shoe laces too.
