Well, that was almost a complete thought. Good try though.

Every thoroughbred ever born can trace its ancestry to one of three sires. People have been complaining about the downfall of the breed almost since the breed was developed.

I like the fact that a horse that cost about the same as a used Honda Accord won one of the most money-intensive events in sports.

It's interesting how people seem to think what Derby is like; sure there are rich people that wear elaborate hats, drink Mint Juleps, and focus on the racing, but for the majority, Derby is a massive drunken orgy that just has racing in the background.

Well, rich people wear hats and drink fun drinks. The seething crowd that makes up the majority is on the field engaged in the drunken bacchanal of epic proportions. For the majority attending the horse racing is almost incidental, only coming up because people feel it's appropriate to mix in gambling with the other

This race is really interesting. I would absolutely watch an HBO drama set against the backdrop of this gripping theater, coupled with the moral antagonisms that befall hapless pets trapped running in a circle.

I'm sure it means something more respectable to their Saudi share holders.

This Jockey wins the Internet

Maybe I just don't "get" racing, but wins by these tiny margins don't seem statistically significant.

I really want someone to have the balls to name a horse "Future Alpo." Horse racing is awful.

So, did you go down to Portland to troll Blazers fans?

California Chrome came in first and Johnny Weir came from behind.

Drove down from Seattle, and I watched the game in Portland (big Rocket fan) at a packed sports bar. When Asik got fouled out, there were idiotic USA chants...so when Parsons hit that shot, I got up clapping and screaming USA USA at the top of my lungs....of course I got a lot of dirty looks....then, Lillard does his

that hay could be feeding people instead of furthering this barbaroic sport

If Carlos Gomez is up on the trends he knows that mom jeans are kind of fashionable right now. So he probably complimented her. Then he turned to you and said, "Just shut up and enjoy the nice moment."

You definitely do not believe the same thing about rape and rape-culture as all the well-adjusted normal people trying to carefully explain to you what a fuck-wit you are. You see, they recognize that your joke was never funny. They don't see this as a topic to make jokes about. They recognize that your joke was

Awwwww.... Nobody got your completely un-funny joke.... It must be so hard on you to be so incredibly unique and clever in a sea of people who all think you're a fucklord. How about you just keep being a whiny little cry-baby to every single person here, and next time people will get your cute little joke. Sounds

You shouldn't make jokes if someone thinks they aren't funny. Or doesn't bother to read them, and then proceeds to tee off on you for making a joke that they don't approve of. Not cool, dude.

Doug, obviously there's a problem-because everybody else understands your comment very differently the directly then you claim as intended, so obviously your point was poorly made.
