You\'re also on the record as stating that your Delaware Park morning line making experience tells you that Dublin would go off at 9-1.   20-1 right on the nose, without Eskendereya in the field.

Just teasing of course.  ;)

You\'re so smart, how long did the doctor say your arm will be in a sling??

Thats fine. Glad you cashed too.

I cut my bet in half due to the weather reports.

Jerry deleted my reply to your post, and I\'m glad he did. Had I not had a knee jerk reaction to your post, I would have worded it this way:

quote from your post on April 9:

\"Its one thing to come here and talk up a horse, its another to put your money on him.

If you want to brag to friends that you picked the Derby winner, then thats fine.\"

I didn\'t mean come on a message board with other knowledgeable handicappers. I was referring to your buddies that you actually see and talk to, that will be impressed with a pick.  Many here had it and didn\'t come back to brag.

Well, I did talk up the horse, long before any of the other knowledgeable handicappers here and I did put my money straight up, no exotics but nobody mentioned it afterwards. Yeah, I was a little miffed about that, alright. So I just thought I\'d remind them, but you chimed in with your rather unfriendly remark. I don\'t even recall you replying to one comment I made in the weeks leading up to the Derby or even making a selection. I don\'t post here often, usually only around this time of year. So I have no idea why you would take a shot at me. I had a good back and forth with sekrah. I don\'t know him either and his post race jab was in line with our previous banter and all in good fun, which is how I approached this race, since I gave up playing this game professionally 10 years ago. That\'s all I have to say. Hope you cashed too.
