07-312- so far.

These are the number of starters. Again, on the decline. Once again proving my prediciton that he is a declining trainer.
Don't you have an all w/ all w/ all w/ all pick four to root for or something?

I remember Shug going 0-34, or something. They all have a slip now and then, but most are hall of famers

How could you do anything BUT decline a little when you're always racing on the same circuit as Pletcher?

has to be screwed up to care about being correct that certain trainers will have declining wins. what kind of bs is that?

handicap some races, and back it up with statistics.

honestly man do you think anyone cares about your dumb prediction? pat yourself on the back if it makes you feel good, but by posting it it just makes you look petty.

you're right, it wasn't crappy stock he came out there with, far from it.

Zito is having a rough go of it, but he's still a great trainer. Lukas hasn't had the stock he's had in the past, therefore he's struggled. If I was a horse owner, I'd let either one of these guys train my horse in a second. People go through slumps. Everyone wanted Torre's head at the beginning of the season. How the Yankees doing now? Stinking pricks.

My buddy from Australia would never let me rest if I didn't correct this- it's Vegemite, not vegemint. Vegemite is practically a national food Down Under, I'm told. Because convicts will eat anything.

(Kidding, to any Aussies on the board!)

I just told my wife about this and she's laughing at me big time. "You didn't know that?" Of course I'm the same guy who thought the one song that goes "Your body's a wonderland" was actually "You're Alice in Wonderland."
I guess I'm just a jackass.

Ask for the barn size and get the # of starters and a claim that the starts are on the decline prove that he is a declining trainer.

Is there a cover charge at this comedy club?

There's a whole industry devoted to "mondegreens," or misheard song lyrics- I think the book was called, "S'cuse Me While I Kiss This Guy" after the misheard lyric from the Jimi Hendrix song. My favorite misheard one was from the KISS song- "I want to rock all night/And part of every day."

I myself thought the lyric from "I Wanna Kiss You All Over" was "I wanna kiss you on the road."
