  • travel_vic · In the recent Wor;d championships of baseball, where EACH country is represented by their OWN players and no others Cuba dn the Dominican Republic are the big winners because each tieam is treated as equal challengers in different venues. The odds are not stacked to favor one over aotherr · 95 days ago ·

  • travel_vic · lets say the Breeder's Cup sprint winner is hailed the World's Champion but never meets Black Caviar. Akin to a Cuban boxer, unalbe to leave to fight the world's champion all the while HE was hailed as better. Cannot call someone the world chanmpion at anything unless you take on the world OUT in the world, and not sequestered · 95 days ago ·

  • Winplacsho · I'm an idiot for playing pick 3s, I just need to stick with straight bets in BC races, they pay good enough as it is. Plus, the races are so competitive its tough to string 3 in a row. I only used Caleb's Posse & Trappe Shot in pick 3's. I instead should've been focusing on nail the trifecta & 10-cent super. · 201 days ago ·
