I think this qualifies for an exception considering it's a seminal moment in sporting history.

How was this favorite shows, movies, books, music and so forth? How is it different than the LLWS?
"At midnight on Thursday, you may no longer post threads about your favorite shows, movies, books, music and so forth. There are usually narrow exceptions made for major breaking news of regional or national importance and a few other things. Ultimately, it is case by case, but the thread will be reviewed and, if found to be OT, will disappear as soon as one of us cares to leave the bar and find a computer."

Pharaoh wins and he is considered the greatest horse in history. But you boys go get your Musberger fill.

obviously never saw secretariat. no horse comes close. his records have stood for 40 yrs.
August 29th, 2015 at 8:07 PM ^
FWIW, Big Red lost the Travers as well.

Big Red did not fail in the Travers, he just got beat by a horse who had the best day of his life. IIRC Secretariat ran a 123 or 124 figure. In other words his lifetime average. A figure which Pharoah has never approached. And likely never will
August 30th, 2015 at 8:05 AM ^
Lost at Saratoga but it wasn't in the Travers. He lost to Onion in a race for older horses.
August 29th, 2015 at 8:21 PM ^
I saw Secretariat. Thanks though
August 29th, 2015 at 9:06 PM ^
Then you should know that suggesting any horse is better than him is borderline laughable.
August 29th, 2015 at 5:47 PM ^
I enjoy horse race but I don't follow it closely, therefore I'm probably the only person who cares about this race and didn't even know about it until this post. So thank you very much for this post, it made my day.
August 29th, 2015 at 5:50 PM ^
Hell of a race wasn't it?!!
August 29th, 2015 at 6:00 PM ^
It was exciting ! Although I'm not sure if I'm overall happy with AP losing.
August 29th, 2015 at 6:01 PM ^
Was a great race. He just looked spent rounding the final turn. Couldn't open it up.

It's a Saturday afternoon sporting event open thread. It'll be OK--I promise.

Can't remember the last time there's been complaining about a (non-political) topic allowed to stick around.
This probably would have been taken down if it was pushing newsworthy on topic stuff off the board, but American Pharoah racing seems worth a pro sports exception otherwise.
August 29th, 2015 at 6:55 PM ^
Ilovehorses.com if you want to talk about the traverse stakes. Especially since OT SEASON IS OVER!

In before banned to Bolivia. OT season is over and horse racing is stupid.

"never in my life have I seen such a collection of anal bitches ... "
Says the guy whining like a spoiled child over people expressing their opinions. I don't like it, so I reserve the right to come on here and say how stupid it is. It's kinda how blogs work you fucking crybaby.
Don't want to hear people talking about the stupidity of horse racing? Don't read the comments you sniveling mental midget.
PS. Not really mad at you. But the irony in your post is palpable.

Right. And the post by Blue_by_U was purely humanitarian and Christ-like in nature. You know, especially the part where he insinuates people who comment negatively on something they dont like on an open, public forum have more ego than brains.
You, sir are a much larger incredible douche bag. Congrats.

The "season only" folks are starting to log back in. They seem to be the ones that bitch about everything they possibly can.

My fourth trip to the Travers and had an awesome time. It was great to see Pharoah about 6 feet away from me on his parade through the grounds. Too bad he lost but that's horse racing.
