Just in case you can't make the game...

by:Broseph10/10/08
Ruining Saturdays since 1996! Now I know it's still going to be a HUGE game tomorrow, and I know I will be rockin' steady in Section 227, but nobody is excited about the 12:30 kickoff time slot in October in Lexington.  The good news is that the state of UK football has changed drastically.  It used to be a tough decision for some on whether to enjoy Keeneland or take in a game; that decision is no longer difficult with what looks to be a season-turning game less than 24 hours away. Still, for those not fortunate enough to make it to the game, why not watch some world-class racing!  Keeneland does a good job covering UK games on site (I should know, since I had to watch the brutal Mississippi State game from there last season), so you can get your football fix at the same time. - The Breeders Cup decided to do the right thing and hold the 2010 Breeders Cup at the only facility that is large enough to accommodate it adequately. -  It's looking more and more like Big Brown and Curlin will finally meet in late October. Epic. -  Speaking of Big Brown, can this guy EVER stay out of trouble? -  Also, speaking of "big brown," did anyone watch It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia last night?  Hilarious. Sooooooo, last week wasn't great money-wise, but we managed to hit 4 of 8 races (including the Shadwell trifecta), so go to the window and pretend that you weren't aware that you had to hit four races in a row.  After the embarrassing back and forth with the teller, try to recover this week with these bad boys: $1 Pick Four Part Wheel (Race 2) 10-12-8 with 3-6-12 with 2 with 8-6 (the single in the 4th may not be the best play, so add to it if you feel so inclined) Bet: $18 .50 Pick Four Part Wheel (Race 7) 1-8 with 8-9 with 1-3-5-6-8 with 3-8-11 (sadly, I could still miss on that 9th race...WIDE OPEN) Bet: $30 ***Thanks to viewer 081305 for the .50 Pick Four idea.  Genius.***
