Talk:Dick Schaap

Untitled

Doesn't anyone think it appropriate to include the 1974 incident heard live on WNBC-TV by many thousands, including me? I heard him report that the upcoming mating of Secretariat to Riva Ridge would make them "the most famous pair of stablemates since Joseph and Mary."

One of many references would be the NY TImes obituary of December 22, 2001. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Explainer (talk • contribs) 04:37, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Missing information

The section Personal life ends with this sentence:

"Fischer was still resentful that Dick Schaap had later written, among many other comments, that Fischer 'did not have a sane bone left in his body'."

This obviously refers to a certain point in time (note the use of the word "still") — but '''which''' point in time is entirely omitted. 2601:200:C000:1A0:4C31:7BB6:D35F:3 (talk) 17:51, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
