5 Comments:
Speaking of the Derby, Courtney Friel of the Fox News Channel is there in her finest.
As decent as NBC's coverage of the Triple Crown has been, I must say that I really miss Dave Jackson from the ABC days. "DOWN the stretch they come!"
Thanks anonymous! I appreciate the assist.
Dave Johnson, not Jackson
