Requiem for a winner

I guess Steve Byk should just feel totally ashamed that he posted about Beyers and Shaun's collarbone injury on this of all days. (Am I allowed to be sarcastic on a message board on 9/11? Hmm.) It's a free country which is particularly noteworthy today. MMSC has a good heart and doesn't deserve to be lectured to for something like this. I, for one, am glad that on this day (as you keep hammering) she posted about something important to her.

I'm sad to hear about this horse's loss. Very tragic, and no it doesn't have to compare equally to the anniversary of 9/11 to be tragic. In a moment of celebration, an animal lost its life unexpectedly. That's sad. You can be sad about more than one thing at the same time, at different levels of sadness. If you don't want to think about things like this on 9/11, don't come on the board. You brought any offense on yourself, and frankly, I think the decision to take offense is incredibly odd.

This is insane. Am I at PaceAdvantage?

Steve's spelled out how to treat other posters in the past and that speaks for itself. I've done my duty standing up for MMSC. (It might be a little lengthy but WWMMSCD is something we should seriously think of putting on a bracelet and selling to DT forum members.) You wanna get into a fight and interfere with my happy enjoyment of the Keeneland yearling sale online, you won't be able to. Sorry. Have a nice day.

Merlinsky and MaTH...

Thanks guys. I'm fortunate to have friends like you two and really appreciate you both.

I'm done on this thread.

The point was to remember this guy, not to fight so anyone who wants to continue be my guest. I have nothing else to say.
