When Imawildandcrazyguy and Hey Byrn are mentioned as throwouts in a race where the favorite was second to an ok horse which broke down I can take a pass. But GRL.

This post makes little to no sense. Did you have paint chips for lunch?

It's not that hard to speak (or type) literate English.
I guess it is harder to comprehend it.

What he is probably trying to say is this card blows.

Is that your opinion or your translation of his opinion? Just curious.

My translation of his opinion. I dont follow Calder anymore than you follow Saratoga Harness but the fields are big so I can understand the interest.

He was obviously mocking I'mawildandcrazyguy.

Cool.

I know he was mocking them, but it was in a nearly incomprenhensible way.

I love Calder, but there aren't too many around these parts that like to discuss/play their races. There were a few, but they seemed to have faded away....

If a lack of quality horses keeps you from wagering then I can only surmise you don't gamble on horse racing at all.

Sorry, I missed this post before; I do not bet anywhere as much as I used to. What's the point?
P.S.-I did watch this race and it sucked.

I've heard a lot of reasons for not betting a card but this one is the most unique.

Let's see if I can comprehend what the above post means....

You read an article written by an unknown author that was posted on an internet message board and because the unknown author didn't list Imawildancrazyguy and Hey Byrn as contenders in the race and the favorite in that race recently lost to a horse that broke down, you're passing on the card.
