Curlin didn't look invincible...

I'm not a horse whisperer, so I don't know why he didn't bring his "A" game yesterday. But, if I had to guess, I think he's tired. From what I have no idea, maybe the trip to Dubai, who knows. I just don't know what your point is. Yeah, the Curlin that ran yesterday is multiple lengths slower than the one we saw in Dubai. No sh it. He's a star by today's standards, but not an all time great. No sh it.

TFM said his move was impressive. I disagreed. His race was substandard yet I keep hearing how just winning matters, the race was tougher than it looked, the speed figures came back good. If Georgia(the number 1 team) beat Georgia Southern(subpar opponent) yesterday with a last second field goal I sure that we be talking about how poorly Georgia played instead of how great of a kick it was to win the game.
