Big Brown Dud

Monday, June 9th, 2008

In what was hyped as the chance of a century for a horse to win the triple crown, Big Brown laid an egg in the Belmont Stakes race on Saturday, there is no easy or nice way to say it he laid as big of an egg as I have ever seen in a horse race, he did not even show up at all. I was so very disappointed in his performance as were 99% of the people who watched the race. Let us hope the next triple crown threat has more moxie than the last one.

MMA on CBS

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

If you caught the MMA fiasco on CBS last night you will of been as disappointed as I am. I had never watched the MMA and I thought it would be a good chance to check out a new sport. I was sorely disappointed in the program, not only did it run very late it was all pomp and no fighting. After 70 minutes of broadcast there had been about 2 minutes of fights, very disappointing. I hope if they do it again it will be more fights and less show, if I wanted all show and no fight I would watch professional wrestling.

Harvey Korman

Saturday, May 31st, 2008

Another Hollywood legend died this week, brilliant comedian Harvey Korman died this week at 88. I remember the role he had in the great movie Blazing Saddles as well as on the Carol Burnett Show in the sixties. I loved his work with Tim Conway and he will sorely be missed. There are not many with comedic talent of Harvey Korman.

Triple Crown

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

It is very possible that there will be a triple crown winner in horse racing this year. Big Brown has looked unbeatable in the first two legs of the triple crown. The story this week about him having a sore hoof will put a bit of drama into the next race, but I for one think he will pull it off, and become the first triple crown winner in about thirty years. A great feat for any horse and brilliant in my opinion. The last leg will be very grueling but I think Big Brown will pull it off. I will be glued to the TV.

Indy 500

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

Having spent the early afternoon watching the indianapolis 500 I was happy with Scott Dixon as the winner he ran a very good race as did the other top finishers. I do not follow open wheel racing very much so many of the drivers are not familiar to me, I used to know every driver and who owned which car in the open wheel circuit. Now I watch a little NASCAR and the Indy 500.
