An interesting article, but I believe FanDuel is trying to get its sports bettors interested in horse racing. The multi million dollar races create publicity for horse racing particularly on Fan Duel. I am not a sports bettor so maybe my opinion on this is incorrect. When you see the odds for...

As a half full view, the offense has looked really good from time to time. Exhibit 1 is obviously Northwestern, three plays and two touchdowns. I can’t remember any Duke offense in my life time that could do that. The first quarter of UConn game we moved the ball effectively. The last quarter...

My recollection which isn’t that good is that neither Leo Hart or Ben Bennet were very good at running. I didn’t see Bennet play in person much so maybe wrong. Leo definitely didn’t run much. The point is if Murphy has the success of either, we don’t need to worry about whether he can run. He...

I have owned my Cadillac Lyriq now for over seven months. Most functions you use daily are controlled by physical buttons, HVAC, windows, doors, cruise, self driving, wipers etc. The only annoying one missing is the glove box. When car is parked a button on the screen opens the glove box. When...

Wow, a lot of complaining on here. When was the last time we were up 6, got the ball with about 4 minutes left in the game, marched down the field and ran out the clock? While I was having ptsd in the third quarter due to over 50 years of watching Duke football WE WON! I believe the...

Wow, I hope so. That might set them back a decade.

I hope their Board of Trustees is enjoying this season as much as I am. What a bunch of delusional fools. Players refusing to play in their bowl game and them getting blasted has carried over to this season. If players are being paid to play they should be forced to play in any game where...

Wouldn’t the University of Wyoming be a good fit? They had pretty good football with ex Duke assistant Craig Bohl as their coach. Larry Shyat of Clemson once coached basketball there. They also had a pretty good quarterback named Josh Allen!

This Iroquois is fascinating. 10 of 12 horses come in off wins. How often do you see that in a race? Four of the twelve are by Not This Time, a sire with a $150,000 stud fee, who is really just getting started. Do you find it strange that Giocoso whose best race is his last on the turf is...

Hey, that works. Thanks I didn’t realize the 18 character maximum. I am sure the announcers like that rule. Speaking of which is anyone else amazed these announcers can name every horse in the race on today’s bloated number of races per day? I can’t remember 2 or 3 names when meeting new...

Interesting that Pratt left Ky. Downs and huge money to ride Baffert’s third in the morning line and betting choice Gaming. Hernandez is Baffert’s go to rider and he got the first choice. Obviously it worked out well for Pratt. I have gained new respect for just how good Prat is. Irad was...

Well what can I say, not a good day at the track. Well, actually from the television in my great room, not a good day. Well maybe not as bad a day as Riley Leon and Notre Dame. It’s probably good not many if any pay attention to my handicapping. But there’s always today. Except I haven’t...

Despite the low score the game was somehow sort of exciting as in which team was going to make the next blunder. Then as others have pointed out we seemed to come together late in the game. Was that the Feeley effect? One thing for sure, no more running by Murphy. The line seems to pass...

Having finished even yesterday I’ll try my hand with some picks for Kentucky Downs tomorrow. Lots of money on the line. With the exception of the 9th race which is the most pitiful field for a Grade 1 I have ever seen, the other stakes races have lots of good horses. The 7th is the Music...

Maybe the ACC should just let FSU leave. Who would want them? 0-3 in their last 3 games. Neither the SEC or Big would take these guys. Their Board of Trustees is delusional.

I have Verizon 5 G which is limited to certain areas, but I use Hulu live for streaming. I have all sports channels, not sure about Bally’s but think not. I can record, but often times it ignores my command. While not on this subject, can someone explain to me how to watch ACCNX for our...

Thanks for the twitter link (I refuse to call it X, as I am asserting from free speech rights.). That is the first camera view to actually show the severity of the hill. You see it plainly when at the track, but the television views somehow down play the hill. By the way I totally agree with...

So I had an awful day, aside from the winner and the exacta in the feature. Being down, I was torn with betting Walkathon. I had my finger on the win bet for her and couldn’t pull the trigger. Ouch! She seemed outclassed and how often do mares wait until 5 years old to hit their peek. But I...

I’m going to try again with Kentucky Downs. Based on my opening day handicapping you may want to ignore my advice. In the feature $3.1 million Nashville Derby I have changed my opinion on the best British invader, now favoring Bellum Justum. He has finished in the money in his last two races...

Damn I feel your pain.
