For edging Street Sense and sparing us from 3 weeks of Triple Crown talk and endless boring horse racing segments on Sportscenter.

What are you talking about that shit is awesome. The whole season of horse racing can be boiled down to six weeks. When a horse has a chance at the triple crown, that is freaking great.

I like goin to the track and layin down a few pennies as much as the next guy but I've never been all that interested in watching it on TV as a spectator sport. ESPN would have beaten it into the ground for 3 weeks - now we won't hear anything about it until a day or two before the Belmont...so thanks again Curlin!!!

the actual race might be great but the 3 weeks of pregame is freakin annoying....

Hmmm...more annoying than three straight months of NFL DRAFT coverage?

I'll take the horse racing shit any day over that garbage.

At least the general public can rally around a horse going for the Triple Crow, can rally around a feat that's truly remarkable. And usually, ESPN produces some feel-good features and whatnot. All that the endless NFL Draft coverage gets you is 500 X more idiots starting conversation about football, talking like they actually know something cuz they saw it on Sportscenter, and acting like when they read their team's beat writer's insider blog and find out that someone came to visit that weekend, that it's the biggest, most important news ever released.

Sorry, that last sentence was a run-on. But you get my point.
