Isn't it funny how the excuses start to come out in this fraternity after you get out raced. The fact is he was a Gr Ch that got out raced by a smaller 2xw on that day. Now don't come playing the age card as an excuse. If he was that old he should of stayed on the bench. He wasn't old when they hooked him just after he got beat. That's the difference between present day and the older generation of dogmen. The older generation would give you respect and to your animal and not make excuses trying to be little what you have accomplished.
