Borel In Hall Of Fame?

I don't want Johnny V in the Hall of Fame. He's made a career out of riding those Pletcher juice jobs -- you know, the ones that just keep coming in the stretch-- and giving horses those abusive wide trips. When's the last time he even sniffed the rail? Mike the EUNUCH has more balls than Johnny V.

No EUNUCHS in the Hall. It's written.

Velazquez has had plenty of chances in the Derby and failed. Meanwhile, Calvin won on freaking Mine that Bird. I don't think anything else really needs to be said.

Besides, are we comparing JV to Calvin, or debating whether Calvin is HOF-worthy? You're basically saying that Warren Moon (JV) should get in the HOF based on a bunch of gaudy numbers before Terry Bradshaw (Calvin) who always won the big one. I think they probably both deserve enshrinement, but Calvin deserves it more.

3 out of 4 derbys is no fluke...he's gotta be a lock at this point. Approaching 5,000 wins too...it's a no brainer.
