I'm the lone Straw vote. Loved Strawberry. Loved those SI covers from the 80's.

Fully admit the Casey cover is iconic, and I'll probably vote that way the rest of the Derby, but I can't let my boy get shut out.

Yes, jokingly... Mr Booker recently made a big hug bub over Mr Biden's use of 'boy'

claiming he and countless others were offended by it. Lasted a day or two and fizzled...
