Well I thought it was pretty bloody obvious that I think there are plenty of legitimate ways to discuss the Derby contenders and their various attributes this far away from the race. I am just not convinced that a discussion about whether a particular horse is a good bet at 7/2, but perhaps not at 3/1, all predicated on specific post position considerations is one of them at this point.
To each his own I suppose, but this particular discussion/poll strikes me as pointless.

No doubt. This is why I've pretty much just read through most of these threads and haven't commented. I voted for 7/2, but if he draws a lousy post that would change for me.

I'm actually encouraging more Pyro & Big Brown threads. I have the over/under set at 22, starting with this past Saturday until the Derby.
