You are free to talk about whatever you want.

And, no...I am not forced to comment on this thread if I am not interested in it...

But if I do choose to comment...and I express my indifference in the matter...should I be told that this indifference of mine "perpetuates the 'stupid horseplayer' stereotype"?

Or that I go out of my way to defend cheaters?

And, because I happen to bet on the game, does that mean that I should "tone it down" when it comes to pointing out the injustices commited against the player?

I bet horses because there is no other legal game out there that can be beaten...without great inconvenience in time and travel.

If there was...believe me, I would be doing something else...
