La-La Land in a funk again, same as when Kobe was killed. Vin Scully died last night at 94.
He always had so many things to say…so many.
BestLine Racing Society Recap:
Turf-heavy today at Colonial & Saratoga.
Hard times at Colonial. Regrets!
At Saratoga, Race 2 went to the Simple Minds hunch play #1A Glittering Prize (.285 Win Prob / 2.51-1 Fair Odds / 3.21-1 Premium Odds), who just qualified for generous-value status at $8.80 to win.
In Race 5, #5 Sosua Summer (.314 / 2.18 / 2.82) scored at $9.70.
BestLine Racing Society Nightcap:
Tonight a big changeup. We are going to the land of Walter White, Heisenberg, Gus Fring, Jesse Pinkman, Mike Ehrmantraut, Kim Wexler and, of course, Slippin’ Jimmy McGill / Saul Goodman / (but not Gene Takovic, who so far has been spotted solely in Omaha). Yup, that’s right — Albuquerque, beyotch! Wonder if those mopes could have undertaken (!) some skulduggery at the local hippodrome. Yes, you know it!
Amazingly, we have never watched any of the episodes all the way through, not even once. But at this point, unless you are buried as a corpse in a covert meth lab and no longer can access the SOcial MEdia, you can’t help but have been introduced at least peripherally to all these fine characters. RIP, Howard & Lalo — together for eternity!
