So is your ignorance.

Please give everybody here an explanation of how you can oppose what is happening to Baffert (which is your right)...while simultaneously saying you care about the sport. Otherwise, you are taking a legitimate issue and making it Political. That is why you got flamed by me the other day. Idiots like you aren't fooling anybody.

Nobody is "spending every waking moment tearing down people". If people were ACTUALLY doing this...these Assholes would be a lot more scared of doing this shit.

Some of you people have no grasp of Reality. You would be much better off if you pretended Horse Racing didn't exist. It is just a little too "Real" for some of you.

It is not necessary to be obnoxious!

These are the same people who claim to "care about these beautiful animals".

What is not necessary is for you to reply to my posts. It is absolutely your right to...but just remember...you were told.

As far as your drug analogy goes. I agree the big smuggler should get more time but that has nothing to do with the topic. Baffert has been caught 29 times in over 40 years in the sport. I wouldn't call that excessive. I have no problem with him being suspended and his horse being DQ'd . I just think banning him from the sport for 2 years is excessive considering the drugs in question weren't even performance enhancing.



I don't necessarily disagree with you about your views on Baffert. I do believe, however, that magnitude is important in all crimes. A violation in the KD is far more detrimental than a violation in a 10K claimer.

It's also not necessary for you to be an unaware, obtuse Idiot. But...here we are.

Some of us, through various means, have skin in this Sport/Business/Game. We all know there are a lot more "Bafferts" out there. Baffert himself was the one who thought he was "too big to fail" and shit all over North America's signature Horse Race. He is getting what he has coming. And those of us with said skin in the game want EXACTLY that to happen.

If that is too much for you to process...tough shit.

No...you're just obtuse. You have a WAY overblown sense of importance of your opinion...and feelings. I don't particularly care about the first...and flat don't give a shit about the other.

I actually fancy myself as well put together. I am not a Bully. Just because I won't take your shit...that doesn't make me a Bully.

Why are you so lathered up, anyway, about something I said TO SOMEONE ELSE???
