When you quoted me you took part of a sentence that I did in fact say, but you only took part of it and took that part of it out of context. What I actually said -- the complete sentence -- was as follows:

"I apologize as those are not my words and I do not believe them to be true."

So, let me clarify -- my use of the word "true" as part of that complete sentence was not to infer a lie. It was part of the larger context of me saying (actually apologizing) that those were not my words and I did not believe them to be true as I did not speak them. It's about them not being my words, not about your claim. It's a manner of speaking. That's all.

I also made my point to Cannon Shell and I think he clearly understood me. However, that's neither here nor there. I'm

Alright fair enough.

Rupert, you have the patience of a saint.

Someone takes you to task over a hypothetical trainer who makes $55/day/horse, because his small town trainer only gets $45. As if that somehow invalidates your hypo. This same poster doesn't like your $6/day/horse salary estimate, but doesn't provide an alternate figure.

Another poster feels the need to point out yet again that in NY it would be illegal for a racing board to try to subpoena bank records. You calmly repeat yet again that it is not illegal to ask for those records from the individual.

Somehow you keep your cool. I'm impressed!

I don't disagree that they could ask someone for that info, but it would have to be stated as a term of the suspension when the suspension is handed down. Thats not what he said in his original post. He amended it later.
Same with phone records.
