You want to, you know, the answer to all your questions is money.
That's also a part of this.

We may find out soon enough.
I mean, it's one of these things that you have come along in sports, I guess, every now and again.
I mean, what's the Tour de France now, right?
I mean, do we even pay attention to it anymore?
What's the heavyweight boxing championship?
These things are...
almost like empty chalices.
And I really struggle to figure out what's going to be next.
Our friend Brent Musburger and I were talking about this, and he liked the idea, and part of it's the old Wayne Lucas idea, that you have the Triple Crown races once a month, that you have one the first Saturday in May and then the Preakness first Saturday in June and run the Belmont on July 4th.
Brent would say, throw in the Travers in August and make it a Grand Slam and create something new.
So I think we're going to find out, though, what we're going to find out, either with the spacing of the Preakness or trainers continuing to ignore it, what we're going to be in horse racing without the old traditional Triple Crown.
I would say it's somebody you've never heard of.
