But neither I nor anyone else was screening anything.
The official site of the Kentucky Derby has to do a better job than this. I dont remember seeing any note that they were having trouble with comment traffic during this time. It just does not look good even now. I realize this is not your fault, but the official site of the Kentucky Derby should be able to handle the traffic of a dwindling % of people actually interested in racing in this country. This is the race of the year in the United States.The internet has provided an immense platform for communication. If this little site can handle the traffic, the official site of the Kentucky Derby surely should be able to.

i'm sure traffic goes up on this site around the derby but just go to any search engine and type in "kentucky derby" to see which site is on top.
i don't disagree with your point that they should have sufficent bandwidth at the offical site but the fact this place wasn't swamped isn't evidence it's an easy fix.
steve should be so lucky to have that problem.
