Hopefully it's another 37 years till the next. Then probably a decent chunk.Uz2Bon36;1732902 wrote:

We were at the Hard Rock Rocksino as this went down. Talk about a gambler's euphoria. Place erupted from the horse enthusiasts, and others, when he won.Midstate01;1732868 wrote:I had chills as he crossed the finish line. That was awesome. First time in my lifetime. Very cool.

The horse is worth more as sperm than he is racing. Racing winnings are just icing on the cakeIggyPride00;1733315 wrote:I read the owner of the horse said something about AP racing again and they must be nuts. That horse is worth a fortune at this point, and given how easily horses can be injured racing I can't imagine why they would risk it. Any prize money won through racing is so far dwarfed by stud fees in the future it isn't even funny.
LMAO, Secretariat and Man 'O War are unarguably head-and-shoulders above all other race horses, with Citation not far behind. But AP certainly has a chance to cement himself firmly in that next group. Time-wise, Secretariat is the only horse that would have beaten AP in the Belmont Saturday.Tiernan;1733352 wrote:Lotta to-do about a better than average horse & trainer that would have gotten their asses waxed by the likes of Secreteriat, Alydar, Affirmed, Citation & so on & so on. But you young swinging dicks keep on believing the Golden Age of Sports started sometime around 1996.
I will be there lolCrimson streak;1733363 wrote:I can't wait for the breeders cup. I'm more than likely heading down to keeneland for it. My buddy trains horses and he will more than likely have a horse running against AP.

Working Notre Dame is alright, in the sense I get Sundays off for NFL and December off completely (unless random events pop up).GOONx19;1733377 wrote:Keeneland in April is my favorite part about Lexington. End of October, not so much.
I went to keeneland 2 years ago in October and I loved it. Had a great time there.GOONx19;1733377 wrote:Keeneland in April is my favorite part about Lexington. End of October, not so much.
I agree with this.Crimson streak;1733407 wrote:Laley im not going to lie im pretty jealous you get to work the ND games haha
It was a good attempt at a slam. But pretty much a fail all around. Working the ND games has absolutely no bearing on the fact that NBC doesn't show any college bowl games. So it was guaranteed he wouldn't have to work any NYD bowl anyways.Tiernan;1733410 wrote:Working ND games pretty much guarantees you won't have to work any of the NYD bowl games. Enjoy!
This, and the fact our company doesn't do bowl games at all. System takes 3 days to set up and these trucks for the bowl games are just doing too many games during that time period. They use our rival company for the bowl games. Not as accurate, but takes only 1 day to set up.sherm03;1733415 wrote: It was a good attempt at a slam. But pretty much a fail all around.
