So TVG isn't showing Mountaineer tonight? Why the he'll not? Is it a contractual issue? Not on HRTV either. Ridiculous.

Stop it. Mr. Berry is as good as they come. He's a member of this board. Perhaps you should tell him that personally.

Shouldn't this warrant a ban? I mean, really?

I thought the call was completely appropriate - 20 wins is 20 wins, and I don't think Peter could've done any better job than to say what he said...with all due respect to Zenyatta and Peppers Pride, the record DOES belong to this horse, fact is fact.

A "Ban" ? Really?!?!? Maybe someone who takes this **** so ****ing seriously that they would even suggest a "Ban" should be banned for not having a life. Do you for 1 nanosecond thing that he wishes the guy was REALLY SHOT?

So everything is just a joke or a jab? I think people who say anyone should be shot are themselves off their rocker for joking about injuring or potentially killing someone. And maybe those who sympathize with them as well...you think I'm crazy, I think you're crazy.

You could have a conversation about the racecall if you wanted, but RHT's comment is inappropriate.

I've had some race calls after which I'd gladly have shot MYSELF. This was not one of those. I was more than happy with the call, trying to touch as many bases as possible, with "Everest in his veins" on the backstretch to some semblance of respect to Zenyatta and Pepper's Pride at the finish. The only thing I regret was getting a little caught up in the moment at the finish and forgetting to mention who ran second and third. Thirty lashes for that.

yeah, but you're talking about rockhardten, he's been banned from this board more times than pval has been banned from riding.

Does he qualify for the claiming crown since he was not in for a tag in 2011?
