Oracle USA

I wish I did not have to ride through the traffic to get over to the race. Don't care to split lanes that far. I will be watching on the TV, enjoy the race.

Go Oracle.
 
Ill be caging my way up. I imagine parking will suck worse than usual, so would it be wise to bring a bicycle to finish my way up to the jeti?
 
Funny story from my wife.

She was with some friends of ours in the Golden Gate Yacht Club just after the second race. She was chatting with some other sailors about the Kiwi's sucky tactics.

Mrs Jimmy Spithill (Oracle Skipper's wife) was holding court nearby and made the mistake of talking over my dearest.

Mrs Spithill: "Shhhssshhhh! Do you know who I am?"

My wife: "Hey everybody, there is a woman here who doesn't know who she is"

Loud guffaws all around :rofl :rofl :thumbup

I have waited 1/2 a lifetime to use that line and my wife beat me to it :laughing :laughing

That's a good one. :laughing

Hate people who are full of themselves.

Wind speeds on the bay right now are looking good...but that could change as, for sure, it's unusually windy up here in Sonoma County.

Business insider .."The skipper of "Team USA" is Australian and the manager is a Kiwi. There's only one American on the 11-man crew. All things considered, you should actually probably be rooting for the New Zealand team."

Bi says this? Whoa Nelly. I knew the first part but the second one is still surprising in print:))
 
Whats the difference between Larry Ellison and God? God doesnt think he is Larry. :twofinger

Now... down to the marina. Should be good regardless if the Kiwis or Oracle wins.

Actually at this time, there are NO Americans on the boat period. Its Team Larry, Team Oracle.

WTF? The biggest comeback victory in the history of the near oldest sports competition known to man, and there is no rioting in the streets? No burning flaming Muni buses on the Embarcadero? No Rolls Royce side shows? Everyone is just quietly and calmly walking back to their offices? So disappointed. ;)
