Yeah, I'm sick of it. I'm sick of hearing about it, I'm sick of reading about it, and mostly, I'm sick of defending this sport to people. But I guess I'll keep doing it. I started a new job this week and had to go to an orientation seminar for 2 days. On the first day we all had to introduce ourselves and tell a little about ourselves and our interests. I only briefly mentioned that I owned a couple of Thoroughbreds and the CEO of the hospital stepped up and began to question me about the Derby and Eight Belles. BIG black eye for the sport, unfortunately.
