When the kayfabe (look it up!) just isn’t violent enough, let’s try it in real life…
Remember that movie called The Django Unchained, that part in which the ‘owners’ take great pleasure in seeing their ‘beasts’ beating each other’s brains out with sledgehammers? That’s probably the sheer glee going on in certain places right now, some 160 years later. Really, it’s the ‘owners’ who should be taking part themselves, GETTING INTO THE ARENA (thank you, Theo. Roosevelt) THEMSELVES, if they had a scintilla of the bravery they delude themselves into thinking they have. Probably. It’s always the guys who have never fought who take the greatest pleasure in watching other guys fight. Personal Vietnams are always easier than Real Vietnams. Rob’t Mueller in the United States Army Ranger Hall of Fame. You could look it up! Some of these other guys, you could write their Fourth Step for them!

Admit it: Portland Meadows. You’ve always been curious, but were afraid to check it out. Well, Friends of Thoroughbred Racing in North ’murrika, that all changes today! Hallelujah! Actually, it’s a fast track there today, and that alone is reason for celebration in the Pacific Northwest, the Rose City. Races 6, 7 & 9 have some opportunities for yourself. The opener had a top pick on BestLine of 37.3pc, and it was a nominal overlay on the IRL toteboard at high-noon PST. Oh, well.
