I’ll Have Another, the horse aiming to be the First Triple Crown winner since 1978, has pulled out of Saturday’s Belmont Stakes according to the horse’s trainer, Doug O’Neill. He made the announced on Dan Patrick’s radio show moments ago.

A 1 pm press conference has been called to discuss I’ll Have Another’s status. At 10:48 am, a reader floated to us that I’ll Have Another would be scratched due to a tendon injury.

There were a # of 12-1 and 20-1 prior to this. Those could payoff big if somebody laid on them. Wow.

And his owners will make assloads of cash. Stud fees for top flight race horses are often six digits per session.

Would have been a TBL-esque seven figures had he won the Triple Crown.

If you consider that horses can stud 100-150 times per year and that he will likely live another 15-20 years, I think they’ll make plenty of money off of him without the Triple Crown.

I think that’s the way I’m leaning as well. Her body is ok, but her face is ‘woof’…it’s not enough to get past the fact that she painted over her vagina with the German flag.

Is T-Rodge still doing his show out of Houston? I know Yahoo Sports Radio is HQ’d here in Houston, but I thought I heard T-Rodge say he was in California a couple weeks back. I don’t listen to his show all that often so maybe he’s moved back home.

He’s back in California where he does a pre-game show for the Angels, but still with YSR.

I heard the same thing, but I usually listen to Palillo on 790. I do love Beckner’s “facts” though.

I’m guessing he just said “neigh” when someone asked if he was running?
