You're not on the high ground just because you do. However, I am glad that you support these equine related charities. Maybe you're not as cold as I once thought.

Is it wrong that some of us choose to remember, is it wrong that some people (yourself included) prefer not to, well, not in this way?

What I do find irritating and rather childish is the lack of respect and the sarcasm that appear in these threads. Always from the same one or two, I must add.

You call this sh!t, that maybe your opinion and you're entitled to it. Just like I am entitled to say I find your posts dull, I find your posts dull.... sorry, I'm repeating myself. I've learnt that trick from you, ya see.

Why can't you lay off, just once. Just for christmas? That would be the polite thing to do instead of going around slagging people off because they don't know quite as much as your oh so high and mighty self.

.....and before I get messages shoved down my throat saying "do you know who he is"....... no, I don't, why should I care.

Thank you for your time.


You are beyond pathetic.


In all seriousness a thread about horses who passed away is fine. For those who want to read about em ....great. I believe thats what that flying with angels thread is all for. All the PETA fans and tree huggers can go over there and talk about how these horses (who they have no real connection to) changed their life. But to constantly clog up the main area with threads about horses who passed is a bit much.

You want to rip on guys like BTW who have probably forgotten more than you will ever know about the game then so be it.....thats your right....just like it's my right to crack sarcastic jokes on threads which I feel are a bit overdone.

Oh..come on and let it go. Will you please. Do you know how many times I've come across a stupid and I mean a really stupid thread? When that happens I just move along and go someplace else. Maybe that's what you and others who find this thread a waste of space should have done instead of trying to infect it with your childish banter. I don't donate to horse rescue centers nor do I plan to, I clicked on the thread and noticed some horses I remembered. I thought it was well done. This is a forum that's what we do. Some people post on here just to be obstinate, obnoxious, and self-loathing.

And he's the King of a Monarchy?

President of a country?

How's his opinion on this any more important than the author of the thread? Listen, I'm not too into eulogizing dead horses, but I took it has an end of the year wrap up of fallen horses. Go through 25 of the most recent threads and tell me how many of them are real germane to horse racing.

Did I say he was a king ? But I think I value his opinon just a bit more than the floozy who wrote this one.


Hitting the eggnog a tad early are we ?

There's a lot of "ridiculous" threads here, I take them with a grain of salt.....much like the people that post them.
And I don't care who they are.

Never said I was better.....just don't understand what all the fuss was with the thread.
The comics and sarcastic comments can be better served elsewhere here.
