< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 317 OF 754 ·  Later Kibitzing> Dec-14-08    brankat: <Mrs. Alekhine> Thanks for mentioning <Alydar>. While writing m previous post I couldn't remember the name for the life of me. I knew it started with the "A" though :-) Yes, a great runner, and a sire. Too bad he died young. I remember Alysheba well, cashed the Kentucky ticket in '77. Four-1 again :-). After the first few steps out of the gate he stumbled and almost fell, but managed to recover and win in the end. And of course two 2 Breeders Cup Classics. Affirmed, like Secretariat (except for Lady's Secret) didn't do as well at the stud as Alydar and Slew. Not to mention THE ONE. You know which one. The greatest of them all! Dec-14-08    Mrs. Alekhine: <Northern Dancer>!!! HEH-- Canadian too.... Be advised that <Slew> was in <Dancer's> blood lineage--- Dec-14-08    Mrs. Alekhine: Oh <branko> and yes <Slew and Alydar> better sires than <Affirmed>, but the latter was hardly a slouch.. Like I said, his turf children were stellar. <Lady Affirmed> may be the greatest Turf Mare in American racing history, for example... Dec-14-08    WannaBe: Breeders Cup, winning it twice in a row, that's hard, considering Curlin almost did it this year. (I was there at the track, Santa Anita, which will host it against, in 2009...) Dec-14-08    jessicafischerqueen: <MannBee> very exciting!! I am jealous.... Poor <Curlin> got toasted on the turn for home there- going around 9-wide it looked like-- losing a lot of ground. I saw it on <youtube>... Dec-15-08    valiant: Best Written Post: <amadeus> On the Carlsen page today! Dec-15-08    OhioChessFan: < heh- and yes, what about that <Alydar> who has not been mentioned in print yet in our thread?? > Alydar is the most beautiful horse I've ever seen. Dec-16-08    Ragh: I nominate myself for <Best Avatar> and <Best Profile> categories. Dec-17-08    MostlyAverageJoe: Best Handle/Name: User: Sredni Vashtar Dec-17-08    Travis Bickle: <OhioChessFan: Alydar is the most beautiful horse I've ever seen.> Secretariat was the most beautiful I've ever seen especially going to the ticket window after a race. ; P Dec-17-08    SwitchingQuylthulg: OK, time for more nominations: Best handle: <NakoSonorense> Best avatar: User: technical draw Best analysis: <Honza Cervenka> Best written post: <AllergicToTurtles> and <Phony Benoni> Best profile: <Domdaniel> Most helpful: <frogbert> Dec-17-08    Open Defence: <Also, I DON'T WEAR HATS > I remember you had a Giant Pink Pig Hat ? Dec-17-08    technical draw: I nominate Ragh for funniest kibitzer. Dec-17-08    Ragh: I nominate <TD>'s post above for the <Best Pun Caissar>. Dec-17-08    thebribri8: What about me? Don't I get anything? Dec-17-08    OhioChessFan: <Wannabe> if you're in the Christmas spirit, now's the time to donate some memberships. Dec-17-08    OhioChessFan: For a monetary bribris, I'll nominate you. Dec-17-08    Ragh: <thebribri8: What about me? Don't I get anything?> Yes, you get to collect all the briberies coming out of these Oscar negotiations, err.. nominations. Dec-17-08    technical draw: Instead of the Wannabe Gambit, this Christmas try TD's Opening surprise: 1. Nf3 1...any 2. Ng1! ho, ho, ho! Dec-17-08    Ragh: <TD's Opening surprise> As sharp a variation it might seem at first glance, but perhaps, this continuation leads to a <technical draw> in the end. Dec-17-08    Ragh: Oops! Just yesterday, I nominated myself for the Best Avatar Caissar here and today this drastic event (Kibitzer's Café) has ruined my beautiful avatar that I donned until yesterday ;) Dec-17-08    OhioChessFan: Best analyst: <TheChessExpress> Dec-17-08    WannaBe: End of Nomination, start of voting... Dec-17-08    thebribri8: I'd just like to take the time to thank <Ragh> and <OhioChessFan> for supporting me through all of this. Dec-17-08    technical draw: <Ragh> Thanks pal, you ruined a good joke by getting an avatar! (good going in the clues game anyway)....
