you know, some things are better left unsaid. for those who have 'gotten over it'--good for you. but to tell others to do so-well, that's ballsy.

it was positive a little bit, showed his career, his life, and what he meant to those around him.

Holy cow was he a freak on the turf!

yeah, he was. but i kept up with him so much from preakness on, i don't want to go back and watch any of it. heck, it was only a couple of years ago that i finally read the book on ruffian. it's just not something i do. kind of like that dale earnhardt movie, i refused to watch it.

I think you are right about how much he meant to those around him being a positive. I just wish more trainers, jocks, and owners cared that much about the horse.
