Oh my ***** God I just read the comments from this morning...

Can they take one of Chrome's nasal strips and use it to sew his mouth shut?

Disgraceful and embarrassing behavior. What a classless idiot.

It's really too bad.
I understand the emotional outburst at first for losing, but to have that little knowledge and respect for the sport, and it's history and traditions is really embarrassing.

There are horse owners from all over the United States who have dreamed their whole lives and invested millions into this game for the chance to be sitting in his position yesterday.
He should have realized that and enjoyed what a special, once in a lifetime position he was in.

Terrible sportsmanship.

At his age he should understand that there are winners and loser's and you should relish when you are on a winning streak and know that the inevitable hard times will come. Whining anonymously on a Selections thread ( Me) is one thing but do to it publicly when you are fully aware that your words are being heard by tens of millions is a different story.

I am fairly certain he's related to WC Fields!

Same demeanor.
