Wanting someone to not show up for work on Derby Day because of that tape screams of overreaction to me.

it's not just the tape. geez.

'Asmussen's nomination to the Hall of Fame was put on hold on Friday while two state racing commissions conduct an investigation after a video surfaced appearing to show horses being drugged.

The National Museum of Racing announced it was in its "best interests" to table its nomination of Asmussen, known as one of the top trainers of race horses in the United States.

Asmussen is the target of probes by the New York State Racing Commission and Kentucky Horse Racing Commission Communications, both organizations confirmed.'


edit--and i was wrong, it's not a 275 page report. it's 285.
