I don't get how we can vote for more than one on the poll, I wanted to do both I Laughed and Run Burgundy which, I have to say, is brilliant. Only my I Laughed one was counted. Can we not narrow it further to 3 before a "final" vote? There's a lot getting spread around. You can argue more than 50% don't like whatever ends up winning in a couple days.

I really can't believe anyone can complain about the voting or nominations. Did Steve even have to do this in the first place...no, he thought he'd have some fun and allow us to play a small role.

So, let's have a little fun and when the horse wins we can say we helped name it.

Spyder

Hey, wait a minute...Steve, can you name it "Spyder"? Yea, that's the ticket, oh wait, how about "That's the Ticket"

Well, the three most popular are obvious..

I have to admit, that "Run Burgundy" is clever and makes a lot of sense for the Point Given given the dam.

We can use "Redboard" for one of the Smarty Jones colts as they are both chestnuts, and "I Laughed" can be used elsewhere as well..
