So all this time my wife has been trying to pass a drug test?

I think he wanted to go to Atlanta.

45.  But hey, the hamburgers the week after are always DELICIOUS!

That would have been called in about 2 minutes at Santa Anita.

It is literally his job

What, you actually know how horse racing works? Get out of here with that relevant knowledge and bring me the hot taeks about how replay sucks and is bad.

Hasn’t this sort of thing always been present in horse racing? A jockey could always question how another horse ran and get that horse DQ’d for something like this. That is why they won’t cash tickets till the scoreboard says “official” and this system exists because horse racing survives off gambling, which is why it…

Not his first time failing to maintain a line an endangering other horses and jockeys. To be clear, the race today was breathtakingly close to a full on disaster 

I’ve seen horses DQed for way less egregious infractions than that. Cutting off two other horses and forcing them entirely out of contention in a race is absolutely worth a DQ.

The use of the term “veering out slightly” doesn’t come close to describing what happened, even if it does serve the article’s narrative. With three horses mounting a passing attempt to his outside, he veered out more than a full path, impeding one horse and crowding two others. The jockey on War of Will (#1) thought…

This guy talks so confidently about “the spirit of the rule” in a sport he only follows three times a year.

I mean, if this wasn’t the most famous horse race in America that decision would have been made in like 3 minutes

This is where I am basically saying...it sucks for Caster and feels very unfair to Caster on the surface (who is an incredible athlete), but it is not fundamentally wrong. It sucks for Caster...but life sucks. Who it would suck harder for are all the females who worked their entire lives to come up 2nd in Caster’s…

She has male chromosomes. That’s the issue that this article is ignoring. 

At some point, you either have to be in favor of men and women competing together, or accept that, despite the fact that our ideas about gender identity have changed for the better over the years, a line has to be drawn somewhere.

Deadspin has dug in their heels on a really bad take with the whole Caster Semenya story. It is just an ugly situation, but that does not mean it is discriminatory. Look, the athletics categories are “male” and “female”, and we are not talking about those categories in terms of which one you personally identify as.…

Enh, to be fair, he listed a bunch of player number he wanted protected and several of them were black players.  I think he’s just really intense about that Super Bowl era team.

73 or less domestic incidents = coincidence.

Garbage and cancerous? Nah.
