I think the jockey saved the owner millions by not running BB into the ground trying to win a race he definately was going to lose. That was a mature, heads-up play by a guy who knew the right thing to do.

At least UPS got their money's worth sponsoring a nag. Hell, how much have we spent on a loosing Nascar team. I'd say the money was well worth what was spent.
