Anyone else totally indifferent?

I wish I could say I felt one way or the other about Big Brown winning, but I don't care

I feel the same way, i guess the reason is because he has no competition.

I want so bad to root against Dutrow. Hard guy to like. But this horse so unbelievably talented I can't help but to hope it wins. They won't come close to Big Brown today.

Jus rootin for Kent D...Last nite on the eve news Charley Gibson had Kent as his person of the week...He interviewed him and his wife...Story mainly on their 9 yo son who was born deaf and has Usher's disease...Has cokular (sp) implants and can hear but is losing his eyesight and no cure...will be blind by late teens....He's rooting for his daddy today...Kid was very sharp..Loving parents....

Indeed. It was the Affirmed vs. Alydar angle that made their Triple Crown so epic. Sunday Silence and Easy Goer, Silver Charm, Touch Gold, Free House, Captain Bodgit were all so close in ability. Funny Cide, Empire Maker and Peace Rules were within a couple of lengths of one another. There was some possibility in each case that the losers or the newcomers could upset the TC candidate. But there is nothing in this field without Casino DRive that has shown enough talent to get close to Big Brown.

Lost $100 but I'm happy. Fact is, Big Brown without the steroids is Giacomo.

I'm with you here CR8 -- eventually dismissed all of this badness on Dutrow but ain't loving IEAH stock comm ---money people make me suspicious right out of gate anyway==they did nothing to make me think that they are anything but strict bottom-liners and I despise that type
