Guys.. Thanks very much.

As I noted in my quote, there’s a great deal involved in this - Pimlico, Preakness, the award’s history and Alibi Breakfast, the city and Reistertown Rd. (where I made sales calls years ago) - that has great meaning to me. The Old Hilltop is an authentic honor which I'll cherish. It's not something I need to validate my work, but it's nice to be recognized in this way.

Steve, it is good to see that you get this recognition for all that you do. I doubt that there is another person alive that does as much as you do to explain the inner workings of the greatest game.
