he said the same thing about Dutrow and St Liam. Only problem with thsi theory is that all BC horses are locked into 48 hour pre race surveillance and extensive pre race and post race testing procedures. But I guess Paul knows a top secret way around all of that stuff. Funny how only horses he doesnt like who win are the ones who are doped, imagine the cooincidenceof that? LOL!!

Look man..

I'm trying to be as diplomatic as possible about this, but you have a really irritating way of painting yourself into a corner with disrespectful and inaccurate remarks, then labeling the reaction to those remarks as an attack on you and your "credibility"..

Dude, what you don't realize is your credibility completely flies out the window when you say things like "Ghostzapper's time wasn't stellar compared to Pleasantly Perfect's" and "Ghostzapper was doped up for every race in his career"..

What you want is to have the immunity to say whatever you want and have no one challenge it. You want to be able to be as abrasive as possible without having anyone react negatively towards you. Sorry jack, that's not how it works. You want people to be tactful towards you? Start practicing the concept of thinking before you write stuff like you wrote in the quotes I pointed out above.

You want to cry to me and Steve and the rest of the board about how everyone's ganging up on you when they're really just reacting to your ridiculousness..

If you're gonna say that zippy' was out of line for calling you the Mayor of Moronville, fine. If you think I was out of line for saying people will learn to ignore you, fine. What I should have said is people will learn to ignore you when it comes to topics involving Ghostzapper. If it hurts you that badly, I'll edit those comments out..

In the meantime, you should look in the mirror and try to come up with a reason why so many people find you offensive other than "Everyone's out to get me"..

And chill out. This is just a message board dude. I don't hate you and I don't think anyone else does either.

Shall we get Byk to open a theraputic forum so we can discuss people's feelings? Might be a good idea seriously. That way if people are upset about something, they can air out thier grievences. Then we can all have a big cyber hug and walk way happy.

Ateam I agree with everything that you just said. Noone hates him. I think what everyone feels is more like frustration. Its obvious that he loves the sport and has taken a great interest in it. I think thats awesome. Its also obvious that he has been trying to learn as much as he can about it, which is also great, but it takes a long time to understand a lot of things about the sport. Making silly statements is one thing, making the abrasive ones he maked without taking a step back and considering that he might be the problem, not everyone else, is another.

I like Sec very much. I may not agree with everything he says and the way he says it, and the way he handles himself sometimes, but I do like him and I hope that me disagreeing with him or anyone else doesnt hurt his or anyone else's feelings. Like Ateam says, its only a message board!

I was stubborn as could be about Ghostzapper. I was one of the biggest anti-zapper people on here, but I was completely wrong, driven by the desire to see him run more and the frustration that I knew he wasnt ever going to be one of those horses who ran 8 times a year like Skip Away and Cigar did. That and the fact I have never liked Frankel.
While I wont ever claim to be a Zapper fan I will say he was a better horse than one of my favorites Pleasantly Perfect, and one of the most spectacular horses I have ever seen compete.
