Sistah you know I adore you and this has nothing to do with your post, just so we're clear, my friend!

That said, I absolutely hate this idea. ****ing mockery of one of our sports great days and yeah yeah just one race but honestly who comes up with this crap?

There. Now I feel better.

Aaah well see if I had read the thing properly...

Honestly? I still hate this whenever it's done. Feel bad for the connections of the winner... you know?

I think it's great. He'll be funny, the winner might get to meet him and take a picture (assuming he comes down to the winner's circle for something like this). It's a $32,000 claimer for fillies and mares 3 & up. Nobody's gonna be wearing Goldophin blue or anything. Like the winner's gonna be there thinking that the occasion was so darn solemn before Conan got involved. Maybe they're trying to lose the horse in the first place.

1. He was not funny
2. He was not accurate

1+2 = horrible
