BIG BROWN


Big Brown goes for the Triple Crown today at beautiful Belmont Park.

And I'll be there. With two of my favorite people. We will wear our hats and eat overpriced food and maybe even win some money. And we'll have an amazing, exhausting time.

But I won't be there with the one person who first introduced me to horseracing, who taught me how to bet, who showed me how fun this "old man" sport could be.

And that makes this Belmont Stakes a little bittersweet.
