Singing the blues...



Singing the blues, feeling like an underdog and singing the sad underdog blues? Well then take heart, my friend. All is not what it seems.

1. The storied Kentucky Derby, which will be center stage this weekend, has been won by post time favorites in only three of the last twenty

runnings. 2. During the NFL 2008 Regular Season morning line spread was covered by favs in 115 games versus 141 by dogs... 119 versus

148 adding in the eleven post season games. Underdogs 55.4% of the time, not to mention Cinderella Arizona in the Superbowl. So smile.

Note: Like 'Win Willy' to get into the trifecta, with one of several double digit odds steeds to tear a hole in the final furlong wind for top prize.

Muddy track today may change everything. Some of the early speed demons may lack the breeding, training and stamina to go the distance.

"Mine That Bird' ($9,500 purchase versus other millions invested) from far back at 50 to 1... with the favorite next to last. Loved the outcome.

... and "Mine That Bird" did precisely that, tearing a hole in the wind along that muddy rail in the final 400 yards for top prize going away.




Edit: How nice a thing that was for today and for the record for all the minorities and powerless little people of God's still Green Earth.

Another bad Derby for the Sheiks.
