Greatest racing performances of the 70s: 1. Secretariat at the 1973 Belmont 2. Gabe Kaplan at the 1976 Battle of the Network Stars I may have the order wrong.

Kudos to @monteburke for Men of Troy. There's plenty to like in this book about a historic era in college football dominated by @uscfb before transfer portals, NIL and ubiquitous social media. I had forgotten both that USC was basically in the Top 5 for six or so years in a row, but also that they lost a number of easily winnable games that would have brought more national titles. I hadn't known about the cocaine use during the glory days. Burke makes an excellent point connecting the Reggie Bush case, which led to USC's demise for more than a decade, to the eventual collapse of the Pac-12. And vacating wins as part of USC's punishment -- while Miami had worse transgressions and ended up with a lighter sentence -- was truly unnecessary. A great read, especially for Trojan fans. @GrandCentralPub

Nobody else ever has, or ever will, go over the top at the goal line like Walter Payton. I thought this was normal when I was a kid. It was not. At all. It was absolute sweetness.
