Of course you will. Most of us have come to know who you are. You're a tad different. You're a Democrat with an extremely patriotic attitude. That's why you are my hero. You partner are our hero.
You help define the story of Seabisquit.
In the early 1900s, a businessman, Charles Howard (J. Chris Parson) , meets a horse trainer,Tom Smith, and together they look for a horse to train for the major races around the country.
In the meantime, a young jockey, Red Pollard is having a tough time finding a job.
When Charles and Tom locate a horse, named Seabisquit, whom the previous owners think is a loser, they buy him for $2,000. Seabisquit is an aggressive colt, and local jockeys don't want to ride him.
Then Tom sees that Red Pollard has just the right personality to work with Seabisquit, so a partnership is born.
Together, the team of three people and one small horse set the world of horse racing on fire.
In the East, War Admiral is the champion, and the owners are not willing to deign themselves in order to test their horse of breeding and class against the colt from the West whom they think is beneath them.
Finally, after a lot of bargaining, the race of the century is set, and the world listens.
Seabisquit won that race. He wasn't as pretty as the other horse, and he was not as well financed as the other horse. He looked you straight in your eyes Chris.
I see some likenesses here.
