Listen dude. You make ridiculous statements and I'm going to respond accordingly. I'm not going to initiate any trouble on here, but please don't expect that, just because I'm a moderator, I'm going to let anyone say whatever they want without any response. If you're respectful, I'll treat you with respect, but if you're obnoxious and boisterous and inflammatory, I'm taking off the gloves too, moderator or no moderator.
You had a problem with what I said? Awesome. You're one of the few, so I'm not too worried about how you feel.
"Frankly," you seem to be way too gassed for picking Invasor and getting respect from Oracle, but that's just my opinion.

Of course you're allowed to stand up for a horse that is getting bashed, even as a moderator. Only problem here is that there was no bashing of Bernardini. I fail to see why you take it that way despite the numerous comments from many people to the contrary.
What ridiculus, obnoxious, boisterous, or inflammatory comment did I make that made you take the gloves off? I don't remember anything like that.
On the other hand, stating that people should be shot that hold a particular opinion seems a bit off the reservation if you ask me.
I don't have a "problem" with what you said. Frankly to me this is all a silly diversion to take my mind off other things. Whatever I said was done in a spirit of honestly debating the merits of the horses. That you're not worried about how I feel is a great relief.
I'll admit that I did get a lot of satisfaction from being right about Invasor. This is what we strive for right? to be correct about the biggest race of the year? This had been building for a long time and to finally see it play out exactly the way you thought, well yeah maybe I am too gassed. That will quickly dissipate however and I'll be brought back down to earth. The game always does that. Hey, us Invasor people have had only a few days now of gloating. How long did we listen to the Bernardini brigades? All summer.
finally, whatever I have said has nothing whatsoever to do with getting respect from Oracle or anyone else for that matter. That was not my objective.
