Breeders' Cup

The Breeders' Cup World Championships are this Friday and Saturday at Santa Anita.

It was announced today that the beast Zenyatta will run against the boys in the Classic. She is my all-time favorite horse, 13-0, and there is no doubt in my mind that she is going to win this year and become Horse of the Year.

She is the 5-2 morning line favorite.

I never really got into Horse Racing, I will usually watch the derby but thats it

Nor-Cal has sh*t for tracks Golden Gate Fields and Bay Meadows which I'm pretty sure they just took the wrecking ball to last year.

Maybe I would get into it more if I lived in SO-Cal were they have some historic tracks were I could scope the action live.

Just printed off 40 pages of racing guides for tomorrow and Saturday. Right when I get home from class at 10 tomorrow, I'm gonna start looking over the data.

When it comes to horses....I could probably tell you quicker than you can look it up. ;)

No offense.

    • Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.
    • It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
