Case back in NY

[OF JENNY]

who thinks john cummings jr is or was ever a good driver.
this guy found some dope years ago and couldnt be beat. he also drove his own and he was and always will be a fucking terrible driver.
he got some people to invest and went out east and came back with his tail bewteen his legs.
proof that driver doesnt matter as much as everyone thinks.

Enough of the Walter Case nonsense.  He's like 100 and he used to be good.  He blew it and now time has passed him by.  Let it go!

If driver doesn't matter that much then why do the top stables use the best drivers instead of lesser ones?
All I'll say is, equal horse, equal amount of gas, I'll take the better driver, because he'll put his horse in a better position to win alot more often than an inferior driver, and is more likely to win a close photo. Time to move on.

MAN YOU HAVE REALLY GOOD DRIVERS IF THEY CAN RIG A PHOTO. ID BE USING THEM TOO.

[Scooteroo]

You have an over-active imagination.

case would only need to be 33% of his old self to be competitive.

[Scooteroo]

He's short by about 23%

[OF JENNY]

man you are really down on him and his talent. thats a huge drop. maybe thats true but i dont agree. for people like that a lot of times its like riding a bike. its still there if he wants it. he had no fear back then for one reason or another.  maybe he is scared to get hurt at his older age. all i know is walter and brett drove fearless. maybe  it was substance induced but it was a great thing to watch on the track.

I'm just being realistic and what my eyes tell me. The magic is gone, he's not getting that many live drives and is winning at around 10%. You may want to dismiss it, but not driving for so long, being in his 60's and gaining at least 40 pounds is not a recipe for success. Like it or not, his ship has sailed or sunk!

[Grandstand Handicapper]

While some people don't give a $hit, one, I doubt he will be competitive with the top drivers, even if you think the top drivers suck. Two, I don't think he'll last very long. It's not a good move for him. Bad physical space equals bad head space. Tough place for him to stay clean and sober. He drinks now, but that's very thin ice if he comes down to NY.

[Scooteroo]

Even if he came which I doubt will happen, he'd be sitting on the bench more often than not and drive mainly longshots with almost no chance.

He is three years older than Purple Jesus...

Tony Morgan is 66 years old and still doing well but has been driving all along and is still in decent shape.

The mid 90s ENHANCED Walter is gone, unless they stop piss testing him. At this point he's suffered plenty from his self inflicted wounds. He does have an incredible set of hands, and still has his racing awareness. Driving with no fear half blown out of his fucking mind on coke is probably over. But if he goes back to abusing horses with the nails in his boot again they should just end him. Hopefully he's learned to appreciate the privilege again. Nobody owes him shit.
