Here it is, May and I've not seen or heard squat about the Derby or the Indy 500.

My how the mighty have fallen... and been squeezed out by "winter sports" hockey and basketball.

I miss the hoopla over the Derby and 500, weeks of time trials, a slew of important races in which the best horses seldom met, arguments over Kentucky vs California bred horses, Novi versus Offenhauser.

I wouldn't walk across the street to piss on NASCAR.

Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.

I like it, don't want any unfair recruiting advantages for Louisville or UK with all of the hype.

the IRL and CART did it to themselves when they split up.

I've heard quite a bit about the Derby, simply because NBC keeps hyping the Barbaro stories during the Saturday and Sunday NHL games.....

Or IU or Purdue for playing Back Home Again in Indiana.

I heard that Nike added black stripes to all of the horses this year.

Bastards!

Thats not the worst part. Nike added the Lebron James logo too!!

Fuckin' Nike, always doing shit like that there.

You guys aren't trying to get my goat are you? "Cause you know I'm right about Nike and our Rutgers Jerseys.
