I 100% would pay it and cancel everything else!

LAID BACK!!

Because it’s a great way to get pitchers and back up players experience, who you will probably need next season and possibly even later in the season if there are some injuries.

Thanks! I thought you might know the answer to that.

Not completely sure about that. I am like 99% sure he was taking synthetic erythropoietin.

That is what they say. A large heart with more muscle can pump harder and faster, which means it delivers more oxygen at a faster rate to the tissues. That means he doesn’t fatigue as fast. If his specialty is speed already and he doesn’t fatigue as fast due to that, then he can go faster for a...

Absolutely it does! I’m pretty sure that is what Lance Armstrong was using during his epic run of winning the Tour de France. Wait a minute… Are you asking what does anabolic steroids do to a man or synthetic erythropoietin? Lance Armstrong was taking synthetic erythropoietin I think.

If you love horses, Lexington is a beautiful place to visit (minus the fact that UK is there). We visited there back in 2021 and stayed at a nice guest house on one of the farms. We would just drive around the looking at all the beautiful farms. I could live there, if I didn’t have to deal...

Yeah he was. Interesting tidbit ( I’m pretty sure it was him)…none of his offspring amounted to much of anything. Only 2…1988 Preakness and Belmont winner, and the 1986 Horse of the year. I think that was it. The GOAT racehorse, but he definitely not the GOAT stallion.

You would be amazed at what has been tried. That is definitely one of them.

Epogen (synthetic erythropoietin) was way more performance enhancing for racehorses than anabolic steroids. By having more red blood cells and thus more oxygen being carried to tissues, horses wouldn’t fatigue. Thankfully, all of that stuff is no longer in the industry. Terrible for the horse’s...

Some of you baffle me! I’ve only been an equine vet for 23 years, and you are still trying to tell me that I don’t know what I’m talking about. Dude, I’ve worked on racehorses and had many of them on the most potent anabolic steroids (back when it was legal). The horses were better, but it did...

Well umps are well on their way after 1/2 of an inning. What an atrocious call against CMo!

Definitely! Jave was insinuating that he was so great because he was loaded up on steroids, and that is just not the case. In a race that big for that much money, if he was loaded up on them, then everybody else was. He was just that special.

Not trying to argue, just trying to help yall understand how special that horse was. If it was steroids that caused him to be so elite and destroy that field, he would have done it at the Derby and Preakness. However, as the length of the races got longer, he won by more. Then the Belmont...
