New 'special' launch for Breeders' Cup! A tradition like no other..

[my miss storm cat]

This is a great thing for the people who would want to do it... I mean it really is nice.

I always feel like I have to say this... I am definately a fan, I don't think I've ever gone overboard though (with her. Maybe with one or two others but hey that's just who I am. Accept it or go **** yourself. Respectfully, of course! ).

These threads always turn into little contests of wit and sarcasm and that's cool but remember kids... fans either become - or are - bettors. The couple of threads every year about generating new anything, bringing new people to the sport, wwhhhaaahhh-it's-dying-what-do-we-do-oh-lookie-here's-an-email-askng-for-suggestions etc...you've got to be able to accept this kinda thing cause it's just the way it is.

There are different kinds of fans and players and I don't know about any of you but I have no problem when anyone goes out of their way to include the loyal, lifelong types who DO play believe it or not.

Like I said I would not wish to attend this BUT a couple of my closest friends are probably hearing about this right now and planning on going and why not...

Good for them.

I'm sure they'll have a ball.

If it had been Hendrix I'd have gone in a heartbeat.
