seems like in a place like this, you tempt fate and the other posters when you put anything resembling an opinion on here. after all, as was mentioned before, they're like a$$holes, everyone has one...of course what went unmentioned was that no one thinks theirs stinks!! and of course the more outlandish the post, the claim, the comment, etc, the better your chances of getting hammered. tis life. don't take it personally! just watch for your own chance i guess. but please, don't stop posting. many times things get pretty funny, and the best thing anyone can do is learn to laugh at yourself. hell, i crack up every time i think about walking into that stop sign....it's uh, a long story....

And if you don't agree with someone's opinion, that doesn't mean it's bad, it only means you think it's bad. Some difference there. Any honest horseplayer alive will tell you he's been beat by a horse he's had a bad opinion of. Guess what, that same horse made other people good money.

As an aside, didn't someone on this board like Summer Book in the Sunshne Millions race and was ridiculed to no end on this forum?

Bruce, the point is not that I, or any single other person on here is the "grand arbiter" of determining what constitutes a stupid post. The masses do that just fine on their own.

If I think you said something stupid, I will tell you. If someone else thinks it was stupid, they will tell you. If ten other people think it was stupid, they will tell you. You've got to think that all of these people agreeing are on to something. It's not vengeance, and it's not being mean for fun -- it's simply showing how either indefensible an opinion may be or how stupid a comment may be. It's especially funny considering that this whole conversation is surrounding a poster whose only intent it seems at most times, is to incite these very conversations.

Plus, no skin off my back for the whole thing, no matter which end I'm on of one of these conversations. Someone you were with at Gulfstream loved Summer Book and got ripped to pieces for it until the running happened. I would know, I didn't cry about it.

It really is sort of sad the way he dominates so many of the threads on this board. We should probably try to ignore him.
Next week when he predicts something like......."my grandma will definitely train at least 4 TC winners in the next 5 years," let's just let it go.

You know, I never knew how much I liked you until just the last few days :D

I actually just laughed out loud a little while I was on a call at work when I read that. Well done!

Last night I wrote a long post about this, and I didn't send it. Today, I will, what the hell. So no--one doesn't have to be nice. Ever.

But, if I thought that I could not manage to get through a coversation without calling someone or saying to someone . . . .

RETARD
Are you F**K**G Retarded?

IDIOT
Your opinions are idiotic!

PYSCHO
I think she's psycho, whata' you think?

STUPID
Damn, you're stupid!

ASSH*LE
God, you're a such an assh*le!

INEPT
Your ideas are just f*****g inept, just as you are.


I don't think I'd be touting how educated our discourse here is.
There's no corner on being "nice" here. I don't think there's any danger in that, nor is there one on speaking in a highly educated manner, while assuming others to be clueless when one does not agree.

The above shows tremendous ignorance and lack of maturity, I don't care how damn educated one thinks themselves to be or how knowledgable on the sport of horseracing.

Its all something to think about. Keep in mind, one doesn't know when their life can change, dramatically. We're all one automobile accident away from being a stupid retarded idiot that is inept as hell, and borderline psychotic. . . .just one rollover, one stop light away.

Guys, this thread didn't, in any way, involve manners. It didn't have a thing to do with manners.

That, I don't think at any time has been the point. Nor was it sanctimonious on anyone's part, including what I offered.

At a point in life though, some sooner, some later, we all learn the skills that are needed in the exchange of opinion and ideas.

And there's nothing wrong with tolerance or respect or ignore. It ain't about manners.

paisjpq 03-30-2007 05:37 PM

whatever...it still wasn't about the green monkey....so now there is a seperate, appropriate thread to discuss it.

Coach Pants 03-30-2007 05:51 PM

come on people now
smile on your brother
everybody get together
try to love one another right nowwwww


When I was a little lad
Coal trains were not built yet

Gotta find a way
I better wait
I better wait
Gotta find a way
I better wait
I better wait
