But to “factor in the connections’ shenanigans” which is what I did in my initial observation to start this thread off in Post Number 1 (and this thought was no doubt implanted into me by others on this board, so it was by no means my original thought), is to imbibe a drink half-filled with reality, and half-filled with impure thoughts...an inner corruption brought on by participation in the realities of the sport....
When horse races become chess games, and steeds become pawns to be sacrificed as part of a larger strategy of gain, and in spite of clearly written rules against such strategems, when fairness is consumed in the fire of greed, the Racing Gods are not pleased, blessings are withdrawn, and gazes toward heaven are rebuked by thunder and lightningbolts...
