Lost Heroes  

You all kmow what they said about Pee Wee Griffin.  You either hated him or loved him.  He was my #1 at Windsor.  My Mon and I visited him while he was recuperating from some serious injuries (maybe burns) I recall that he got at (maybe) Fonda.  Anyway, Pee Wee was the nicest guy to talk to and was very appreciative of our visit.  My Flemington favs were Whip Mulligan (in both the 14 or 73) and later Glenn Fitzcharles. Always rooted for Augie Moschera and Dave Hulse at Wall.  Since I became a Billy "The Kid" fan, I root for "Jr" now.  I also for root for Dominic Buffalino and Jeff Strunk when I'm at a race that they are in.  For me, I think the racing gods have not been too favorable to either of them recently.  I admit to rooting for a driver given the circumstances of how he is doing in a given race.  An example would be if Wade Hendrickson or Frank Cozze was in a position to win a feature, I'd root for them to win, even if they're battling my guy.  One guy I really don't root for but love watching is Ryan Godown.  Damn he is fun to watch.  Am I a closet fan?  Scott Ely
