So is he feeling hurt? If so i'll stop and leave him alone. I've worked with special needs children before and I know the trauma they go through with being picked on by their peers.

Do you put pillows in their pants to make them feel better? LMFAO :D

She's from the ESPN forum right? That alone explains everything. It's like an OTB on the wrong side of the tracks. :D

By the way, not the analogy I would have made when defending my love of Godolphin.

The point is that its all about the HORSE...thats what this game should be about to me....If you are a baseball fan you should apprecaite teh talent and abilities of Alex Rodriguez if YOU ARE A TRUE FAN THAT LOVES TO SEE GREATNESS....not because he plays for the Yankees. Hell, I'm supposed to hate A-Rod by your theory if you say that you would'nt apprecaite any horses Hitler owned - becasue I really dislike the yankees...But i like A-Rod becuase I apprecita good talent...that i the draw and dynamic for most fans...seeing something spectacular happen that average people cannot do, right...

I appreciate horses that are extra-ordinary - such as Bernardini and Discreet Cat...I could care less who owns them......What I cannot appreciate is an owner who I'm personal friends with that has a horse that wins the Louisiana Champions Day Lassie because - while I'm happy for that person - i know that the horse really is just another horse...a dime a dozen..

Bernardinis and Discreet Cats just don't come around enough for me to dislike them and not appreciate them for the petty reason of who owns them....

Yep, but you guys get my point. It's better to read about horse racing than anything else (especially, when you come here for the horse racing.) I am FAR from a good handicapper, but I enjoy reading the horse racing posts... there is a lot to learn from multiple members on this forum.

I'm sure he probably doesn't really care, although I'm not really qualified to answer that question. I know that I get frustrated with it sometimes, and I really appreciate his insight, just as I appreciate a lot of other's insight on this board.

And stop. This was a nice thread... I was learning a lot. Now, I'm reduced to guessing what someone else is feeling.....

The shame...LOL:D

I am actually taking an Abnormal Psychology course right now. LOL.

It's not like Joel was actually comparing the sheiks to Hitler:confused:

He was just using Hitler as an e x a m p l e.

Of course I was....comparing Hitler to the Shieks is crazy....

I'm just having fun with the thread. The thought of Hitler in the winner's circle at the Spa has me in stitches right now. I'm picturing all of the french bred turf horses scratching from their races. Oh the hilarity.

I second that. There is some good stuff on this board. I have learned a whole lot more since coming here.

This thread sucks. In fact this is the worst day ever on this board. Hopefully things will get better as we get closer to Saturday's racing.

Coach Pants 10-02-2006 03:23 PM

I give this thread 5 stars. From Beyer to Hitler, this thread shines. :D

Gander 10-02-2006 03:26 PM

I give this thread and this day of posting about a 2 on a scale of 1-10. Its an utter mess. Its reverting back to ESPN board ever so slowly.

I must have missed something?:confused:

Then why post on it, Gander? :D

Great question.
