Aww... this is why I hate award shows. I feel bad for the losers. Buck up, Mosses. She'll still get in the Hall of Fame the first year she's eligible.

Pretty classy speech by Jackson, all things considered.

Whoa- way to cut away there the first second you could, ESPN News.

Mosses were bitter, you could easily tell by the looks on their faces they thought they were robbed. Lesson learned. They can only blame themselves for her campaign

Honestly, how can you not be a little bitter or disappointed? Both were magnificent this year and made history.

How about showing a little class, I know nobody likes Jess on this board but I can guarantee you he would of at least clapped and shown good sportsmanship if Zenyatta won, instead of just sitting there looking shocked and bitter. It really wasnt that much of a shocker

I think the Mosses really thought their horse was so loved they'd win, that's why they're shocked.

Its just the whole Zenyatta camp and followers dont get it. Moss commented on the fact she was perfect for her life. That doesnt matter, we've said that time and time again, its horse of the YEAR not a lifetime achievement award.

I don't blame the Castleton Lyons people one bit.

Though I still can't help but feel bad for the losers, it did cross my mind that they can go home and cry on a bag of money.

What were you watching? There was no bitterness evident on their faces.They simply kissed each other the moment the announcement was made.

No she looked over to someone and said something smart ass too when the cam was on her

Except for the time when they cut to him during Jackson's speech when he said they should talk and figure something out - and that post-award quote wasn't bitter at all.

Which was all a total surprise from a team that has been incredible up to this point.

Perhaps I've mistaken his facial expressions and his quote combined -- and he'll clarify in the coming days....but not a real impressive night for him regardless, most notably considering that he's been untouchable as far as class goes up to this point.

The post-award conversation with the interviewer had some bitterness and obvious disapointment. My original post was made after I replayed his first reaction when the announcement was made. He simply turned to his wife and they kissed and the camera turned away. How anyone could construe that as bitter simply had a preconceived notion of his feelings.
I really don't understand the animosity toward either of the owners and am not interested in the reasons why. Congrats to Rachel and Zenyatta.

Also they panned back to the group and they were toasting during Jackson's speech...

Which was probably started by Mike Smith. He was glassy-eyed and is an obvious severe alcoholic.

Jess Jackson looked like a scary elf. That guy puts the ugg in ugly.. I had to fast forward it so I wouldn't have nightmares
