In regards to my taking the threads down, I did not care for the tone or example they set for anyone coming here for the first time. The Private Messenger system can be used for those kinds of personal exchanges. I don't have the patience to remove just the messages I find ill-advised and mean-spirited, so threads will come down instead. There were three whose tones echoed both the above.
I know both parties well, and doubt either really wanted those statements left hanging in the air. Strictly my call, and I hope all Trailers understand the position I have to take... My name is attached to this website; I am a co-host of a daily national horseracing radio show; I am a partner in a business that works with MEC, CDI and NYRA and I am charged with administering a decorum here obliged to meet a minimum standard to which I can answer.. I'm sure everyone can understand that...
