i'm not a gambler or a fan of horse racing, but i would love to see smarty jones win, and i'm wondering why that is. what is it about this situation and human nature that makes it matter to people? there's another thread in "outside" about the election in november, and despite war, terrorism, the economy, etc., being at stake, the triple crown is of more interest to me right now. leaving aside the possibility that i'm just too shallow for the great issues of the day, any thoughts on why smarty jones and the triple crown matter?
