Seems reasonable to me.

Oh, and he then adds, "Those are all miniscule things to me. I’m happy to have the opportunity, and if it’s going to cost me to ride a morning-line second choice starter in the Breeders’ Cup, I’m gonna pay it."

I would hardly qualify that as whiny or crying...

Excellent points. However, are you sure you want to confuse rantings and ravings with your logic and facts. LOL.
