WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5

WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.

WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

  WannaBe: Number 7 El Kabier, Number 11 Stanford, and Number 22 Tale of Verve all scratched already...
May-01-15  Robin01: I think the Derby has too many horses, so I like seeing the scratches. Now with the 7 horse out, the 8 horse will have a nice inside break, and the 8 horse is a good runner.

  WannaBe: <Robin01> Wooo, #8 is Dortmund. I think Magnus did well there, is he the jockey, too?

  WannaBe: Odds on fav came in second, lost 80 cents on Cat Burglar. Going with Lord Nelson in race #5. Two across the board.

Race #6 got an interesting horse, Another Lemon Drop, off spring of Lemon Drop Kid? Morning line have it as 20-1.

Another one is Royal Son, G. Stevens is the jockey, trainer is Todd Pletcher.

Two across on the following::

Race #8, Water Hole, Irish horse
Race #9, Bayern

You see, when these antiquated water rights were drawn up many, many, many-a-moons ago, water that is above ground and water that is under ground are treated differently.
