I just remembered that the Kentucky Derby is today. I've never really put my finger on why, but this event just doesn't appeal to me. It's easily the biggest sporting event that I don't care at all about.
I guess my problem is the hype-to-action ratio is too high. A full day of coverage on television for a two-minute event is a little more than I can take. Also, I'm not a big gambler, and horse racing is nothing if not a gambler's medium.
About the only thing I like about the Derby is that it gives me a good excuse to drink mint juleps. Which reminds me - where's my bourbon?
