You okay?

Whew... thank God.

I just logged on but am sure there are a couple of other threads this morning that need the sarcasm fairy to do a fly-by and sprinkle some of your special you-people--both-annoy-and-bore-me-so here's-a-line-of-what-I-see as-wit-but-really-it's-just-bitterness dust. Hooray!

Thanks for posting that, Touch of Grey.

This is what I was trying to say but couldn't...

Many teenage jockeys who are suddenly out on their own have similar challenges that NBA or NFL rookies face. Too much money and too many undesirable hangers-on. These young riders need the same kind of guidance and advice other professional athletes are receiving.

I agree with Honu and Uncle (Freddy) Mo (Mo)... c'mon you have kids. Would you throw them to the wolves at a young age and expect they'd be able to deal with all of it and well?

Aaah well...
