Not obsessed, just trying to back up my prediction from a couple of years ago when everyone called me crazy.

However, there is a fine line between quality of wins and the ones that you do win.

Your disdain for Zito on a personal level should have no bearing on what he does professionally.

The two are unrelated. My prediciton was based on declining numbers from the top trainers of the 1990's. Do I enjoy that he is having a so so year--YES. But that is just topping on the ice cream.

The sickening aspect of this is that your only concentration is on Nick Zito. What about the other trainers having a so-so year? Your obsession with Zito is a tad bit ridiculous.

I also reported on Baffert and Lukas (2 of the other top trainers in the 90's). But I did not make predicitons about them.

Imagine that, numbers declining....other interests? Have any info to back up the number of head he has now compared to then? Nobody cares but you.....why don't you PM yourself?

He's on a decline because there is nowhere to go but down. He's accomplished more than you would if you had ten lifetimes to do so.

What a hater.

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

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?
