It pays to be Disrespected: When I left the Columbus Dispatch in September, I took my horse racing desk with me. I rechristened it "The Disrespected Horseracing Desk" because, well, what else was I supposed to call it? In TDHD's debut on Friday, we presented our Kentucky Derby picks. Friday's post ended like this: "I'm a win-place-show guy with a roll of quarters. I like medium-to-long shots with late speed (because hitting on Ferdinand in 1986 spoiled me for life). Saturday, I'm hoping for a hot pace, a meltdown up front, and a late run by Golden Tempo. His odds have been rising. May they keep rising." Golden Tempo, who went off at 23-1, came from the back of the pack with a furious charge down the stretch. He won by a neck. Photo by Taylor Sondgeroth / Unsplash

"You have to hope, you've got to believe, that that performance tonight will embarrass them enough to stop this, right? Because if they're not embarrassed by that, we don't want them on the team." -- Rick Bowness
