Banning Peanuts

Some baseball parks are thinking about banning peanuts. In the seventh-inning stretch,
people sing, "...give me some peanuts and Cracker Jack..." Now, the song may have to
change. Should baseball parks ban peanuts???

Some people are highly...

The World Is A Weight I Cannot Bear
by Paul G.

I never had the upper body strength
nor legs like pillars
to bear the weight
of a world the size of ours.

Instead, it crushes me down,
ashes to ashes,
and dust to dust,
in life's moments and hours.

Boston Celtics PLAYED the Lakers
Everyone is saying Boston is way better than the Lakers. Congratulations to Boston on
their victory for sure. However, what beat the Lakers was their slavish allegiance to the
triangle offense. Boston was pressuring Kobe all during the finals series. Ordinarily this would

Blame Kent Desormeaux for The Belmont??
The latest word is the Rick Dutrow, trainer of Big Brown is now blaming Kent Desormeaux for
The  Belmont catastrophe. WRONG. This year I decided to watch every single Triple Crown

Big Brown Will Win The Belmont
Well, they officially scratch Casino Drive. Casino Drive was the only horse that could have pressed
Big Brown. Now Big Brown gets to set the pace and dictate the strategy. With Kent Desormeaux's
experience, this thing is over. If Casino Drive had challenged Big Brown in the...

What A Coincidence?! (The Belmont Stakes)
Wow, gee, shucks, it looks like Casino Drive may have a foot injury an will not be able
to challenge Big Brown for the Belmont Stakes. This increases the likelihood Big Brown
will win the Triple Crown which is ultimately worth probably over $300,000,000 to the
owners and...

Belmont Stakes: Remembering Sunday Silence
If you know Sunday Silence, thoroughbred extraordinaire, take a moment
to think about him at the Belmont Stakes. As Big Brown heads for his
final Triple Crown challenge, I must remember Sunday Silence and
how his TC bid came to an end. Here's what happened. There was...

Big Brown.
Big Brown.

I picked him in the Preakness...that was obvious...
BUT, his trainer Rick Dutrow has become way too cocky.
The saying is, "Pride goeth before a fall."

Order Of Finish, Preakness Stakes, Pimlico
Okay, here is my superfecta for Saturday's Preakness Stakes at Pimlico:

Predicted Scenario:
Big Brown and Gayego will take the early lead...in order to keep the pace honest
and exclude the wannabes.

On the backstretch, their jockeys will press Big Brown...

In Love With An Image

I am in love with an image,
a mirage.
It's you.
But, it's not you.
It is the idea of you.

and silky hair.
It seems almost possible,

Can Any Colt Beat Big Brown At Pimlico?
After Big Brown's devastating performance at Churchill Downs in the Kentucky Derby, the question is,
can any other colt beat him at the Preakness in Pimlico? I have previously blogged my praise of the
California horses. I ate crow at the KD because the California horses were a dud....

Kentucky Derby Psych Job Spotted
I can't believe it. I just noticed the pattern. How could it take me so long? A horse in the Kentucky Derby named Big Brown is being built up to be the next Secretariat. Could it be? That's exactly what the owner/trainer want
you to think...what they want the other owners/trainers to...
