Horse racing.  I mean, if one was in front of me, I would probably watch but I don't seek it out.

I was shocked at the 2-3 hours of allocated coverage for the Belmont.  2-3 hours for a 2 minute race?  WOW.  I had it on for 45 mintutes just to try to find the appeal.  Still lost on me.  I liked the race though - the horse names are awesome - Unlimited Budget (I can only imagine), Overanalyze, Palace Malice.  And to think, the Belmont has been run for 145 years.  Yikes.

And here in the sports books?  It's still bet on like crazy.

I found another one--Vegas

And Phoenix.

Pretty much any big city in the desert.

x2 on both accounts!  Now travel just a bit further to either Red Rock or Sedona, those are some cool places!




Boo to you guys. I love anyplace hot and am not a huge fan of desolation, so a city in the desert is perfect. Plus Vegas has pools and shows and Kido and Mrs. Kido and that makes it awesome.

Except Tucson. It's totally unnecessary.


I'm a fan on Tucson, despite its unnecessaryness, because you're there Teej.

Dammit. I just bought you a Groupon for a river trip for your birthday!


It's not that I don't like the river, it's just that I don't really think about it unless I receive a gift card to raft it for my birthday!

pitbulls?... this makes me sad.


I used to like them, and used to want one of my own, before we moved to South Georgia I had never met a mean pitbull in my life. My husband and I have nearly been attacked on many bike rides by pitbulls here. I was alone on one such encounter, and now have panic attacks when I see an all white pit bull in person. Since I never had a problem before moving here, maybe it is just bad pitbull owners I hate

Neat. Better use that gift card while there's still a river to raft.

The cities aren't the whole problem. 80% of the water pulled out of the Colorado is used for irrigation.

I'm with you on Horse Racing Kido. That sport should not be propped up as some great endeavor. It should be in the seedy underbelly that only the demented go to like dog racing, dog fighting, and hockey...

True dat. Is it 80%?  Not trying to be challenging, would just like to know your source for that.

I'll happily add Big Ag to my not-like list.

 

Edited for screwing up the quotes yet again.

your story makes me sadder.

negligent owners of dogs [notice I include all breeds in this term] and specifically the bully breeds irritate me and make life for us responsible dog owners WAY more difficult. I love the bully breed and they are the only breed I wish to own... however they are not the breed A LOT of people should own and they tend to be a magnet for the incredibly inept, ignorant, and irresponsible.

I always stop and chat with bully owners and make sure they know the responsibilities involved in owning a bully.

I hope you guys have terror free and better rides in the future.

OMG, right? His "backbackbackbackbackbackbackback...gone!" is the WORST home run call of all time. When you watch the Home Run Derby you're forced to listen to it 985 times. It's enough to make you want to kill yourself.

Excuse me....this is a thread for things people like but you don't.

No one likes Berman....not even his own mother.
