To his credit he seems to have been the last team to scratch thus far, and he did it only two checkpoints before the finish line.
However when you are married to a woman famous for quitting, it is never a good time to quit the only other thing for which you are known,
You know I realize that this whole Iron Dog thing is part of Todd Palin's tough guy persona, but I have to think that entering the contest and then failing to complete it so often does not exactly do much to support that image.
Todd should stick to carrying Palin's purse.
ReplyDeleteDid he get caught cheating again? I think he only does it for the "Free stuff" you know the paymes like OPM so much!
DeleteQuittah!
Todd Palin is a JOKE when it comes to the race! To Alaskans, the race holders, mechanics, etc.
ReplyDeleteThe Palins are known as 'quitters' in every facet of their lives!
Time for him to stop trying to be the macho man! He's too old and far from it!
Todd's won the 1800 mile race 4 times.
DeleteHow many races have you won?
Todd cheated to win the FeK9 race 4 times.
DeleteThere, fixed it for ya.
He hasn't won since 2007. That's 9 years. He seems to be a bit past his sell date, living on on his reputation.
DeleteRobin Rob11:01 AM
Deletehow many races have YOU won troll?
As a commenter said he cheated Fedawg 4 time!
Yes, we are all jealous of Todd because we haven't won the Iron Dod.
DeleteThe Palins lost the human race.
DeleteWow, they were only an hour from the finish line, one of their machines must to have blown an engine. Even if it is Todd that's pretty disappointing to have ridden 2000 miles and have something happen at the last checkpoint.
ReplyDeleteI noticed too that one of the McKenna brothers scratched pretty close to the finish as well, in Tanana. You scratch that close to the finish line and either one of you has hurt himself very badly or one or both of your machines is irreparable.
...or you don't want it on the books and in the news that you finished in 17th place.
DeleteTodd doesn't deserve any sympathy.
DeleteTo be fair, he did get a hell of a lot farther than last year. Last year he barely made it out of town. ROFLMAO
DeleteHis partner's name was Barber. Any relation to Ben Barber, Bristles trial husband right before the "engagement" to Levi rhat made the front cover of People?_
DeleteAlaska is a tiny state. The snow industry is small. The business of sports and racing is big in the state but few people and they are all like a family that sticks together. They promoted money making events and business and they stick together and lie together.
DeleteChances are the Barbers are related to Ben. It was probably another arrangement like with Junker.
>>Wow, they were only an hour from the finish line, one of their machines must to have blown an engine. Even if it is Todd that's pretty disappointing to have ridden 2000 miles and have something happen at the last checkpoint.
DeleteIf Todd is such a macho guy, he should have dragged the machine on a heavy chain, over his shoulders, to the finish...now THAT would be manly. But he's pussy, so he didn't.
Yeah! Like the Jamaican bobsledders in Cool Runnings!
Deletegee Todd did someone put water in your gas?
Deletewhat goes around comes around doesn't it?

Yeah that sounds more like it!!!
Quittah!
Looks like Todd tried to minimize his DNF Iron Dog embarrassments by not even listing 2014 and 2015 on his bio as years competing in the race.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.irondog.org/race-tracking/pro-class-2016/?view=team&number=117
Can't remember whether it was last year or 2014 that Todd scratched shortly after the race start and GPS tracked him going off the course (cheating) back to his home in Wasilla, apparently to get something from the garage to try to salvage the run.
Now that he's established a pattern of quitting and hiding the fact, he might as well "retire". That way those blank years won't look so bad.
DeleteThe whole family quits education. Sarah and Todd quit on Trig and his therapy. QUITTERS, all of them.
ReplyDeletePerhaps, bp will quit having babies..
DeleteThe Donald quit on Sara and told her the only way he could to save face. Will she figure it out?
ReplyDeletehttp://theimmoralminority.blogspot.com/2016/02/the-donald-trump-campaign-demonstrates.html
I think Todd isn't the only Palin who failed their task this past week. It's fair to speculate that whomever is in charge of keeping Sarah on her meds while Todd is gone blew it.
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin hasn't bothered to congratulate the Iron Dog winner. She's been silent for the last 4 days about everything, even ignoring Trump's newest endorsements and efforts to win Super Tuesday state delegates.
Good point. Why hasn't she commented on Chris Christie? Because he'll likely get the VP nod.
DeleteGood god! It's heaven not hearing from the idiot Sarah Palin! Hope it stays that way forever!
DeleteShe's done - aged out - not attractive anymore, has been used and abused, the majority of her lies have been proven to be otherwise, she lives the life of a fraud and assuredly is not fit for political life anywhere - especially in Alaska!
Christie is an actual governor. In spite of his maleficence you can't say he quit.
Deletehttp://nj.gov/governor/
When Sarah goes quiet there is usually something cooking.
DeleteI think she should pull her support from Trump based on the David Duke (KKK) endorsement and she will be the first to get back in the headlines again. Just a thought!
That's certainly a way for Trump to bring over more mainstream Republicans, by appointing Christie as VP.
DeleteHe used Sarah to get "the base" and then realized that he already had "the base" so in truth he didn't need her at all, and then "buh-bye".
Marina Lupas, bff Bristol and Sarah, says the truth will come out soon. They must be cooking up something for Bristol, too.
DeleteSarah is busy cooking up. She needs to launch the revenge campaign of her life after what Donald Trump did to 'Sara'.
Sarah hired the high profile lawyer that is famous for Mechele Linehan's murder case.
Kevin Fitzgerald is a strong indication that Sarah did not quit on Track Palin.
http://www.adn.com/sites/default/files/styles/ad_slideshow_wide/public/legacy/2007/12/3200375.source.prod_affiliate.7_1.jpg?itok=xwMxBvyk
With all the cooking Sarah has going on now she may have to quit Facebook farce for awhile.
That wouldn't work for Palin, 9:39 AM! Alaskans know she proved herself to be a racist in regard to Alaska's first people during her time as gov (before she quit!).
Delete10:19 Isn't Michelle L. sitting in prison.
DeleteAll the money her wealthy doctor husband spent on her big shot lawyer went to waste.
I always felt bad for the husband. Had no clue his wife had a "previous life" as a murderer.
Like something you'd see on Law and Order.
Moral of This Story: Your past will always be a part of your life, so life it well.
Got that Palins, your past deads will always haunt you. And Alaskans have loooooong memories.
Anonymous9:39 AM,
DeleteWhy do you insist on helping her? You know she reads here and doesn't have an original idea of her own.
Linehan was released from prison last year on a technicality and is living back in Washington State. A new book was just released regarding her life and trials.
Deleteshe can stalk around all she wants! animal control will take care of her! no one dies!
Deleteisn't that great Sarah? Sarah? she's nappin
Dnf/scratches are part of the race. About half the teams scratch. It's usually a mechanical although sometimes injuries do it too. Watching the race GPS it looked like Todd's partner parked in Nenana when they scratched and Todd rode into Fairbanks on the river. It's a team race and both members of the team have to cross the finish.
ReplyDeleteIt's actually not cheating to go off course for parts. The repairs have to be completed on the race course though. This year a team blew an engine at the beginning of the race and tried to field rebuild it on the side of the road with parts that were brought in from off course. Wasn't successful but it's not cheating.
It's not the cheating, it's the cover up.
DeleteSounds like someone trying to protect the cheater Todd Palin, 9:03 AM!
DeleteHe has that "cheater" reputation from races past and has quit before. He and his partner obviously are not good mechanics.
He quit one time right after the race started because his machine broke down!
"Quitter" is the scenario of the Palins - in all areas of their lives! Sorry bunch, for sure!
Nobody cares.
DeleteNo 9:17am it doesn't sound like someone "covering up" it sounds like someone trying to inform you of the rules of the race.
DeleteFFS you people always thinking that there are hired folks on here taking up for Palins, guess what, it doesn't happen. Loosen up your tinfoil hat.
Todd hasn’t won the Iron Dog since 2007. That’s EIGHT YEARS. {2015} http://malialitman.com/2015/03/05/todd-palin-joins-sarah-as-the-undefeated-in-the-iron-dog/
Delete10:07 AM Why the projection?
DeleteYOU SAID ' thinking that there are hired folks on here taking up for Palins'
No one else said that or is thinking that.
9:03 Thanks for your informative bit of Iron Dog trivia. I'm assuming you are the one posting details in other posts, thanks for that, also, too.
DeleteI'm an Iditarod gal myself, and know virtually nothing about the ID and your "inside" knowledge is interesting to read.
I bet if they did drug testing the ID would be a totally different event, maybe even a no-go.
(Maybe Iditarod also, but I like to think my favorite dog folks are cleaner.)
On the Iron Dog website is a list of teams by manufacturer and the percentage of each who scratched. Todd and his teammate were using Polaris snowmobiles. Here's the quote from the ID site:
DeleteAs far as how the field looked at the start versus who finished, here’s the breakdown by manufacturer. 41 teams started, and 18 of those scratched.
19 Polaris Teams (9 scratch) – 47%
12 Ski-Doo Teams (2 scratch) – 16%
8 Arctic Cat Teams (6 scratch) – 75%
2 Yamaha Teams (1 scratch) – 50%
I was reading the United States Constitution this morning and it says if you win the Iron Dog five times your wife automatically is elected as President.
ReplyDeleteGlad Todd quit.
Uh oh - what do we know about Mrs. Scott Davis?
Deleteanswer: who cares!
DeleteOT: Fox news is reporting that Levi is posing for Playgirl again.
ReplyDeleteGood for him, that money would help his family immensely. And he has only gotten more attractive over the years.
DeleteI bet it pays a lot more than hawking overprices boxes of shit on instagram and it's better than begging for $25 donations for a chance to win a crappy book.
DeleteI do not read the Playgirl type media but more power to Levi to cash in for the sake of his family's financial well-being. It's obvious that his family comes first, so I will respect whatever icky thing he has to do to protect and support that family.
DeleteI just saw that and couldn't believe it!
DeleteAnd you know Bristol will look.
Oh god no, who gives this poor kid advice? Oh well, I hope he's at least gotten "ripped" because he was kind of doughy last time.
DeleteLink or stfu!
DeleteWow. I think there would be nothing wrong with it if he has an opportunity to make some fast and real money, but....REX BUTLER?
Delete--------------------
The father of Tripp Palin, former boyfriend of Bristol Palin, and almost-son-in-law of Sarah Palin, is going to pose for Playgirl.
To get ready for his close-up, Johnston is training three hours a day, six nights a week at an Anchorage gym with a local body builder.
A formal agreement hasn’t been reached with the online magazine, but the photo shoot is a “foregone conclusion,” said Johnston’s attorney, Rex Butler.
Sunny posted on Facebook that it's not true. Now, who would gain from starting such a rumor?
DeleteThere's nothing wrong with posing in Playgirl. It's a helluva lot less demeaning and damaging than going on "wife swap" and letting the world know your son is an out of control brat.
DeleteBeats dealing drugs to pay off the attorney fees the bitch loser in your life cost you.
DeleteQuit on reality.
DeleteJust believe anything anon says about Fox.

Delete>>A formal agreement hasn’t been reached with the online magazine, but the photo shoot is a “foregone conclusion,” said Johnston’s attorney, Rex Butler.
DeleteWTF? Rex is NOT Levi's attorney...this has to be old stuff.
Oh Todd. You are your wife's husband
ReplyDelete100-to-1 says that $arah & Bristol, who couldn't wait to pose for pictures and share with their "prayer warriors", won't even mention the race until he enters again next year
I don't like Ms Palin or her eldest daughter because of their hypocrisy, but how can you hold mechanical difficulties against a guy. He is the only one in that family who does Alaskan things, like the fishing, hunting, racing etc.
ReplyDeleteTodd is an old poster boy for the pollution industry and ATV commercialism. Iron Dog is a hype more than a race, sport or outdoor activity.
DeleteIt is not the same as doing Alaskan things. Unless you mean Alaskan things are scamming the public and making up false images to snake money out of people, not only in Alaska but in the lower 48.
I think you're on the wrong blog - go over to another blog where people care about how grand the palins are.
DeleteBecause he is an asshole and a bully. Most people don't care if he does things that are more "Alaskan" than the rest of those layabouts.
DeleteBecause he quits and is reported to have cheated in the race - by other racers no less.
DeleteSarah Palin used this race and her husband as she has her kids! The entire family is a fraud!
10:25 do you drive a car, which was built from mined materials in a factory, and shipped with thousands of other cars by boat, train, and truck? Do you drive your car on petrolium soaked roads built with big heavy diesel machinery? Do you live in a house with electricity and gas? Was you house built with mined or forest materials, hauled by trucks with wheels bigger than you? do you shit in a toilet, fly on planes?
Delete10:25 The Alaskan GOPees are EXACTLY that in Alaska. Stupid Fucks too.
DeleteI am for documenting all the Palin crap whether Palinbots care or not.
DeleteTodd Palin deserves every bit of bad luck he gets.
DeleteTrig's been missing those front teeth for years.
ReplyDeleteSometimes DS kids only have baby teeth.
DeleteHe did get his adult teeth in, but they rotted away like his baby teeth due to lack of oral hygiene.
Delete@ anon 10:10 am
DeleteYou must be a Palin since you are full of BS.
10:10 is right to the extent that kids with DS have dental problems. Usually the permanent teeth are delayed but do come in.
Delete"The front permanent teeth and permanent 6 year old molars may not erupt until 8-9 years of age. It is also common for the teeth of children with Down syndrome to erupt in a different order than in children without Down syndrome." - See more at: http://www.ndss.org/Resources/Health-Care/Associated-Conditions/Dental-Issues-Down-Syndrome/#sthash.Dt7ksB25.dpuf
They came out very early. My guess is that they rotted from being on the bottle or sippy cup too long.
DeleteMy point isn't that the adult teeth haven't come in yet, but that the baby teeth came out very early.
DeleteWell he lasted longer than last year when he quit on his partner to get in on an interview with Sara instead.
ReplyDeleteWhen I read about Todd Palin Iron dog in 2008 I figured the heroic superdude they wrote about was on drugs or liar. (Shadow Gov also too) Sarah said he never slept. He was injured, broke bones and got back on his polluter when Alaska was still cold and freezing to go on to finish and win.
ReplyDeleteYep, the fix has been on for a long time. The whole Iron Dog big wigs would do anything to promote their poster boy. They should have never picked a liar, bully, cheat and quitter.
Don't forget the dubious Ak National Guard and sponsorship. Ak Commander in Chief (Shadow Gov). Who better to set up to be the fake winner?
The Wasillabilly family of losers and quitters.
ReplyDeleteQuitting vibrantly, however...
I don't normally defend the Palin's, but the scratch was due to mechanical failure. This year, roughly half of the teams scratched due mechanical failure. It's not uncommon in this race.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I love to see Todd scratch or fail to place in the top 10. I don't like him, I don't like his wife and I don't like three of the kids (I don't know enough about one of the kids to have an opinion) and love to see them fail. Because they deserve failure. They've earned it.
Three + one = 4 kids. Yup, you got it right.
DeleteThat was no accident. I've always been convinced that the latest wasn't Sarah's. From the rumors I was hearing at the time, I'm pretty sure it's Bristol's.
DeleteWell, so far Sarah, Bristol, Track and Todd are losers.
ReplyDeleteSarah is really doing good these days, no more politican, No one wants her to campaign with them.
Now what does Sarah do?
Levi is probably doing the photoshoot so buy his family a house. He probably told Sunny, just this once, but he is willing to do it for her and his children. Nothing wrong with that. He was covered in the right spots last time.
ReplyDeleteYou wish he is doing another photoshoot. I would love to see more of the man. I loved the Playgirl he did before.
DeleteNot all men are that hot and good looking to be able to do anything like that. It is terrific that a hunk like Levi would share so much.
All kinds of men do full frontal nudity. Married men, fathers and men of all ilk. This is 2016. Men do this for art or to buy cars, houses, send kids to college, you name it.
Trolls for Palin have done worse.
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kyU38lCVKY0/VRXy5dpn_oI/AAAAAAAAIhw/MhTETqZt6rU/s1600/bristol%2BPALIN%2BBFF.JPG
Levi and Sunny have a house. They don't need two. Levi has turned down many lucrative TV reality show offers. He just wants to live his life in private like everyone else. And why shouldn't he?
DeleteI doubt the Palins had anything to do with this stupid lie, other than it's their fault that Levi has a bad reputation, they put it out there, Levi has never done anything to deserve it.
But since Karma has found out where all the Palins live (hi Bristol) we can look forward to them getting what they deserve for what they have done to Levi over the years of Tripp's life.
OT, Sunny denies the whole Levi/Playgirs frontal of Levi. She said he will never go full frontal and probably not do it with Playgirl if he did. She seems ok with a shoot like the last time. She said Fox lied about the whole thing on her FB.
ReplyDeleteFox lives by lies. When will Brietfarts pipe in?
DeleteWhere is Betty White when you need her?
DeleteYou can't finish a race when a motor dies. A common problem.
ReplyDeleteOther racers motors didn't die.
DeleteThanks for chiming in with you vast mechanical knowledge.
DeleteYeah. But when your motor is paid for with thousands of dollars of SarahPAC postage, you'd think you'd be able to pick expensive motors that can at least get you to the finish line!
DeleteIt wasn't even Todd's engine that failed, it was his partner's. Todd rode all the way to FBX to the finish line. If they would have taken the time to fix Barber's machine, even if it was reparable, it would have taken so long they still would not have finished in the money so there was no reason to continue.
DeleteFunny how Todd is ALWAYS running into engine problems when he's busted trying to cheat--that's two years in a row. lol
DeleteSo now toad is blaming him partner for being a quitter? Why am I not surprised.
Deleteyou people are creepy.
ReplyDeleteThen why are you here?
DeleteStopped by to see if you are still as creepy as you were a couple of years ago. The answer is yes, especially you.
DeleteYeah, Scarah & KKKlan are sure creepy. And barstool trying to trap a baby-daddy for her latest "miracle" is beyond creepy.
