Again I pose the ? , what major Stakes did he win.Pete Rose won a WS or 2. So I don’t get the comparison
Weren't Billy O and lew williams big cokeheads? Didn't keep them out.
Interesting side note about Case. Ran into him at Golden Corral farm. He was jogging a horse for Pellegrino. Anyway, we got to talking and somehow the subject of Roosevelt Raceway came up. He said he never drove there. I looked at him quizzically and said Walter, of course you did. He said i was wrong. I said Walter I watched you finish second at RR in the Levy final driving the solid racehorse George S. Major race, solid horse, 2nd place finish. You would think he would remember. Ultimately I had to show him on my phone. Finally he said, I guess i drove there. Weird dude. Hillybilly who could make a horse GO!
Yeah Odonnell did coke. So did Manzi. He would snort right at his locker. As for Lew Williams. He was an immortal talent who was put in after his tragic death in farm accident, partly because his daughter Lavonda pressured the USTA and partly, lets be honest, it looked good to have a black male of such talent enshrined John Campbell also had alot to do with that. He even walked the family up to the podium at the ceremony and stood there beside them. You can view this online.
Guy buried his son, did enough drugs to OD the entire planet of prehistoric dinosaurs and humans today.The fact that he is alive is a miracle! I guess if thy don't let him in the HOF they at least could give him a consolation prize, a steak knife sharpening kit.
If you mean Timmy case's death by suicide when he was facing 5 years for tubing. That was his brother, not his son.
What about Pierce? Hard to refute his years partying.
