If it's directed at Sightseek that's just foreplay from DrugS.

Isn't DrugS idea of foreplay asking for a $5 footlong with chips and a soda?

The Sam Davis is another sad reminder of the shambles that is this 3YO crop.

I agree that the crop doesn't look like much at this point, but do you really think the Sam Davis is that bad? For a G3 race in February, don't Rule and Uptowncharlybrown make it somewhat interesting? Isn't it possible that one of those two ends up being decent?
Throw in the Albertrani colt (who didn't run poorly in his first try routing), and a couple of longshots coming off of 2-turn victories over the track, and I actually think it is kind of an interesting race. But I suppose that might just be the result of me trying to get excited about a rather pedestrian group.

And just where do you think this year's Giacomo will emerge from? Polyfornia?

I like Uptowncharlybrown's little story. Plus, I have friends in Fantasy Lane. I hope he runs well.

I would never - ever - EVAH! ask for a "soda"

People who ask for "soda" are likely to be both inbred and fans of Tim Tebow.

Look at Bigs' avatar of Charly as a foal - I wish I was that cute! I don't think he is a FREAK or anything and I certainly won't be betting him HEAVY, but he is an ok horse not trained and owned by the usual suspects and Tampa Bay is promoting him so people can follow him, which I think is fun.

(Just remember if you throw up in your mouth a little in reading this post, you were the one who asked!)
