I do not read Indian Charlie....
What's this guy all about?
Is he just another internet rabblerouser/ TMZ of the barn area type guy? Or does he do actual reporting?

It's usually lampoon that is on the extreme perimeter of humor. It's one of those staples that has been around the track forever and people look at it and then wonder why they wasted the thirty seconds more often than not.

I don't have a big opinion on it one way or the other, but it is nice to know that people can still throw punches from time to time to settle things.

Indian Charlie still shows the humor of an Ali post-fight on twitter!

More free publicity to this guy, bet he's thrilled. Best thing that ever happened to Jim Rome was having Jim "Chris" Everett flipping the table on him, this is not much different.

The article was written as if it was a joke. This can't be real.

Mental image of Romans in action here is hilarious. If only Inside Edition had been on hand...

Anyone ever got there ass kicked by a guy in his underwear with pants around his ankles? That is pretty crazy.

As a strategy thought it's kind of genius, you let your pants slip to the ground and surely dude doesn't expect you to come at him at that point, while he is dazed and confused you smack him.

It's starting to sound like a Benny Hill skit..................I can hear the music

Romans will be fighting Juan Vazquez in the Winners' Circle at the Churchill fall meet. Gotta wait for Vazquez to serve his suspension...in the meantime Romans can be sized up for some better fitting jeans...or will he?

CD will be offering wagering:
> win bets
> exacta (winner and how...KO, TKO, decision)
> trifecta (winner, how, and round)
> prop bets on Romans' pants falling down, Vazquez' pants falling down, both pants falling down, no pants falling down
> prop bet on whether one fighter goes "Suarez" and bites the other

Takeout on all wagers will be a very Churchill-like 30%...good luck

Reading this newsletter, this guy sells by being a prick and by being flat out scummy. If he has issues with trainers, jockeys etc he can state them without possible slander and bullying. What was the worse to me was in a article about Dale there was a picture of a man eating a peice of chicken and he constantly referred to him as fatass. Guy is classless....

In IC's defense, that appears to be a turkey leg. It's probably not deep fried like chicken and a much healthier alternative for DR.

Looks like Indian Charlie lost the fight and got barred from the track.

The Ali references in the Paulick report are awesome, of course for a Louisville track.

He is. Have you seen his show on cable? Its very good, great guests, candid interviews, etc. I fast forward thru the "sklar" nonsense, but other than them, the show is pretty good.

“I wanted to talk to him,” Romans told the Paulick Report, “but as soon as I got close to him he swung at me. The good thing is he swung like an 80-year-old man. I had to defend myself, so I punched him. I didn’t mean to hurt him, but I think I hurt him pretty bad.
This quote could not be more awesome.
