So I have to admit that I was wrong. A couple of days after American Pharoah dominated on a sloppy track at the Preakness, I made the statement that the horse would suffer the fate of the 13 horses in the past 37 years who have tried to complete the Triple Crown. It’s just too…

I don’t generally consider myself to be much of a racing fan. Sure, I’ll watch racing, whether it be NASCAR, Indy Car or Formula One, and I root for Dale Earnhardt Jr., but I don’t really watch it with the passion that some others have for it. That being said, I’ve always wanted to make…
