I saw only the start of the thread. On the one hand, I thought oracle had every right to serve up CR's Funny Cide disparagement in light of FunnyCide's fine weekend win. CR could have ended it by saying "I was wrong about FC never winning another Graded race."

On the other hand, if oracle got into things like "daddy's spoiled brat" and "ratty LA operation", that's a whole different level than arguing about Funny Cide. IMO, a personal attack is a different dimension of bad posting than simply not taking responsibility for a wrong prediction. I'd be pretty pissed, too, if I were CR.

oracle's post at the top of this thread was a very nice gesture. I can understand CR's unwillingness to immediately reciprocate if what CR says was said was actually said.

(after re-reading my last sentence, I can only conclude that either I am a lousy writer or English is a weird language! I can only pity a non-native speaker trying to decipher that.)
