That was awful.

I\'ve defended these guys and the horse.  That display was embarrassing.

Terrible time for a rant.  He now looks like a crazy old coot with about 16 pops in his belly.  Totally debased his criticism of Churchill (which may have been deserved by them).

Victor handled himself much better and had to have been similarly disappointed.

Wish the network had given him some time to compose himself (is possible)

Costas wasn\'t much better in the post race interview with the winning connections. Never been much of a Costas fan, That interview just another reason.

I can understand him being upset after a loss, but it looked to me he lived up to the name of his stable.  I wanted him to win, but maybe it\'s best he didn\'t.

No excuse -- at all. So much for the Sport of Kings. Disgusting display of poor sportsmanship. When he sobers up he should feel pretty embarrassed. Wife looked equally angry.

Art Sherman is still a great guy though.

If Racing just had a national governing body. They could ban the guy for life and make him sell his horse.

I tried to give Coburn the 20 minute rule \"out\" in my last post but thought he was probably just crazy -  so it was great to hear him double down on ESPN this morning. What an idiot!

He now joins the \"pantheon of idiots\" talking to reporters embarrassing themselves and all around them:

Dennis Green- They are who we thought they were
Tommy Lasorda on Kingman hitting 3 HR in one game
Allen Iverson- we talking bout practice
Jim Mora- Playoffs?
Herm Edwards- you play to win the game
Rick Pitino when with the Celtics- Kevin McHale ain\'t walking through that door

Coburn needs a cold, quiet, dark room and some medication.....

Thumbs up to the connections of the winners!
