Sure....are you implying friends of mine dont live long? My fifth wife and I roll my eyes at that. Jones Falls is more into Maryland horse and dog racing (specifically Corgis) and has been spending most of his time mining crypto.

Sorry for the lack of a preview, I knew all about it and I most definitely did not learn the race was tomorrow at 11:54 this morning, but since I am not there on the ground its hard to give an accurate preview. Technically because of a bathroom ban violation I am not allowed back in Kentucky until 2032. Not my fault though, after 14 Busch Ice's I am going to head to the bathroom that's closest.....which may not always be the correct one. And I was wearing a fascinator hat because I thought men wore them to the Derby too, not because I was trying to fool anyone or try something new out.

I'll try to get back there next year, hopefully legally and not having to resort to a disguise. I wont try to Bosom Buddies my way in, as the penalties become progressively worse and I dont want to go to summer camp in El Salvador.

Since you mentioned Kentucky and bathrooms

That's pretty cool. In most places I'd feel compelled to press a "Do Not Push" button. However in a gas station bathroom, I think I'd resist the temptation.

In my family pool, I picked Sovereignty to win.

For Ukraine, for Denmark, and for Canada!

@Comeds, need your preview.


I like East Avenue tomorrow. Currently sitting at 34/1, was 20/1 morning line.
My FanDuel401k is really hurting now. I had a couple bucks on Journalism too.

I'm just glad Sandman didn't win. That horse is an asshole. I know I should stop hating 3 year olds, that's what my AI therapist says, but I just don't like that horse. Did you see the pre race interview? The horse completely ignored the reporter.

I ended up betting sovereignty and East Avenue both. Got lucky on the 18. Had a piece of the trifecta too. On to the Preakness
