Behold Disappointment. - Big Brown Can't Get It Done At Belmont..

Photobucket

His so-called 'biggest competition', Casino Drive was scratched from the race.

He was one of the biggest favorites in the Belmont Stakes ever.

His hoof had a crack in it, yet his trainer was still telling people that his winning was a "foregone conclusion". He had also said that said 'biggest competition', Casino Drive had "no chance". More than $5.5M was bet on 'Big Brown'...WOW. 1-4 odds, yo.

Oh, YEAH?

...and THAT is why they run the race.

I don't claim to know a lot about horse-racing, but I do know when someone's mouth has written checks their ass can't cash. Dude is on TV, sweating like HE ran the race. Look like he STANK!

Here's to the longshots that get it done.
