Sad to say im in the ofer clubhouse
I sucked the week before too ... that's why I didn't offer anything up last week ...
Maybe this coming weekend will be better!
No Egg Drop for you Tin Man?
I LOVE her and I knew she would bust her butt ... like she always does ...
But ... I thought with the class hike and all of the shippers she might snag 2nd on heart alone, but didn't think she'd get the win.
So I played her in 2nd, 3rd and 4th in my Superfecta.
I would have missed it anyway, as I didn't use Discreet Marq. So I was cheering hard for Egg Drop to win and was EXTREMELY happy when she did ... as were a lot of those in attendance, as there was a loud roar from the cloud when they put her up.
I was kicking myself for not putting a side win bet on Egg Drop. As it turned out, I didn't deserve to win on her since I didn't credit her as possibly getting the top spot.
But her win FAR outweighed any disappointment with not getting paid. Suffice it to say that I was ecstatic for her and Mike Mitchell.
Mike was sitting right behind us and I spoke with him for a couple of minutes after he returned from the winner's circle. He adores little Egg Drop. She tries SO hard and lays it on the line every time out and seems to rise to every occasion ... I got the distinct impression while talking with him, that he sees a lot of himself in her. Battling the odds, giving their all and overcoming them.
She's special to him and it shows. SOOOOO happy for her and him.
