Jocks
It always amazes me just how whiny folks can be about jocks. They have a split second to make a decision and I don't care who is riding you can't always be right. When it's a trainer doing the complaining they can have legitimate gripe but often they are just as myopic as the fans.
Criticism comes easier than craftsmanship.
I really miss Bill Shoemaker.
The guy was so cool. His demeanor was so professional. He cashed a nice bet for me with his magnificent ride aboard Ferdinand in the '86 Derby. If you haven't seen the race in awhile check it out on You Tube.
