    Never liked the horse or the team. It is clever though for some publicity. The $1.3m 2yr old this week probably didn't hurt either. Go Louisville.

    Big Brown by any other name is still one of all-time favorite horses.

    I wasn't a fan while he was racing, but a horse is a horse and what a horse he is. That blue spot cracks me up. Fun way to go about marketing, too!
    And listening to some big out a' town jasper, hearing him tell about horse-race gamblin'.
    Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they sit down right on a horse!
    Like to see some stuck-up jockey boy sittin' on Dan Patch?
    Make your blood boil? Well, I should say!

    For a second there it looked like Kentucky was choking down the stretch in the big one. Just like Big Brown.

    Something I wish you'd do. You can't live long enough to have as much class and charisma as Big Brown has... dolt.

    Yes! Lexington is absolutely insane right now. Glad we have Big Brown on our side. Wait I mean Big Blue.
