Barbaro Can't Buy a BREAK

BEVERLY HILLS, CA - To the chagrin of ESPN executives, Barbaro came up short in the cherished Eclipse awards, which honors thoroughbred racing's top horse each year. Now, we here at CursedCleveland.com do not have a vote, or particularly care about the lives of animals or even people for that matter, but we're honestly curious how the horse was even nominated. The equine spent the last calendar year in a horse hospital doing absolutely nothing. If that's the criterion for a prestigious award, does Terri Schiavo now deserve the nod for Time's Person of the Year?
