I got on the internet last night and saw this poll come up about Coburn's comments and the Triple Crown. I voted so I could see the results and copy and pasted them to post here. Knowing that the vast majority of people who voted in this just tune in for the Triple Crown, the results don't mean much to me. But, I did think it was interesting to see that "Yes, it is fair" got about the same votes as "Who cares about horse racing?"
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
After California Chrome failed to nab the Triple Crown, Steve Coburn blasted other owners for taking 'the coward’s way out.' Do you think it's fair for some horses to compete only in the final race?
22 % Yes. Owners should get to decide.

55 % No. They shouldn't be eligible for it.
