...being temperamental and for, well, sounding off. Buzzie Bavasi, the Dodgers' general manager, even gave you a plaque that was inscribed "To be seen-stand up. To be heard-speak up. To be appreciated-shut up." Now that you're 31 and there's a grey hair in your right sideburn and you're making $100,000 a year and you own four race horses, I guess you've probably calmed down quite...

...sidewalk cafes-lies a ring of small communities with names like Aubervilliers and St. Ouen, Boulogne-Billancourt and St. Denis. No soaring monuments to Western civilization grace their drab and grimy streets. Instead, the stigmata of the worst of the 20th century abound: the sprawl of brick factories, the grey, faceless slabs of low-income housing projects.

...someone gave Bute to Dancer's Image by accident at night, mistaking him for another horse -and the stewards gave it some credence by questioning other horsemen whose charges had been stabled near the Dancer's barn during Derby week. But Dancer's Image is a grey, an unusual color among thoroughbreds.
