I'll use "clueless and blind" underneath War Pass in my trifectas for now

I know you're just joking around, but I'm simply trying to be honest here, and I know you would prefer that to someone patronizing you.

I, on the other hand, prefer to be patronized by Andy.

I see Visionnaire is now a juicy 22-1 in the Derby pool.

He's over 90% to be higher than that on Derby Day even if he makes it.

Pyro is 7:2. Now there's a real laugher. If War Pass falls apart, and he wins his next prep, and makes the Derby, he doesn't rate to be below 3:1.

I would like to give 4:1 on Pyro for up to $5K. It's pretty much an even money proposition in a worst case scenerio and free money the majority of the time. Funny.

just how good is pyro anyway? i just have doubts, the more i look at the field he beat yesterday. i thought he looked good doing it, but he should have looked good beating the others who hit the board. visionaires win yesterday is supposed to flatter pyro, but i don't think you can really go by that mess of a race at AQU yesterday...

If you equate Pyro's talent to what Visionaire did yesterday I think it drops him down a peg or two.

Agreed.

I set the over/under on the number of Derby entrants who go off at less than 10-1 at 2.

If that's your opinion then 2 1/2 is the right number.

Oh yeah. But then I'd get crushed by UNDER bettors, and they would win.

Off the board. Sorry folks.

in visionares defence he wont win the derby..but his ability to close will help him and lets face it..there arent much out there yet..matz had been to the dance and showed some class in not putting chelokee where it did not belong.. preakness ..if he does go.. i would play him under ..

That went a lot lower than I thought it would. Now, even I have to say that you are correct in your assumptions of that. His Gotham race was not good enough to be anywhere close to those odds. Still, Visionaire is not slow.

Hooves gave the best opinion of this horse IMO. I agree with him right now.

Like I will cry from something someone says on a message board

Your comment the other day was mean in another post. I'm a problematic poster because I don't worship BTW, I don't agree with everything he says, and I'm not afraid to disagree like most others on here. It's easy to follow the crowd, but I don't like to take the easy way out. I'm problematic because I don't call others clueless, idiots (with the exception of one DTer because of his comment the other day), or other various names. I simply state my opinions, and I try not to be derogatory. I give others credit when they are right, and usually take everyone's opinions into consideration.

Good luck trying to make me cry. I don't cry anyway. You would be hard pressed to find someone who is tougher than me.

Oh yeah, and my opinion may mean nothing to you, but several have asked me not to leave, so I won't. I don't back down to bullies anyway.

In keeping with the week long WWF theme - you sure are the Mick Foley of these parts.
