I love the honesty of these answers... that not everyone knew about the boycott ("what boycott?" was my answer when someone asked me) or ran to google things or that, when they did, they flat out posted it.
I'm usually at the track for Derby day but won't be this time around so will probably join a lot of you with the mute button BUT I will use it for the guy with the (I want to say kabuki but I suppose it's actually) geisha make up and the eye of Sauron (God did he find a proper colorist yet cause that dye job at the Olympics was tragic).
I hate the stupid fluff too but I like the idea of having these two (Johnny and Tara). I mean the fashion, etc., is going to get coverage... it's not like we get any information at all from NBC so sure... why not.
It's a change and no one can be worse than that awful Michelle (whatever her name was) so I will check them out for a few and hope that they add some freshness to the broadcast.
Lastly I'm afraid some of you might be underestimating the reach PETA has so fingers crossed he-who-shall-not-be-named doesn't win a God damned thing cause, if he does, it will be VERY bad for the next five weeks. They will be relentless and sorry but it might continue to be the kick in the pants out sport needs to address certain issues so I will halfway be rooing for them.
We can be angry, roll out eyes, pretend they have no power, point out what hypocrites they are, etc., OR we can take this opportunity to make things right... to begin to anyway. In saying I will halfway root for them it's because I love the sport.

I wish you would elaborate! I'd like to know cause really... the only thing I do know is that there is one.
