It almost seems that Moss (the white one, pretty funny stuff) is trying to appease the PETA people by saying what he did. I look at the whip as tool that the jocks need. Some guys are just better with it than others. But by taking it away, doesn't mean that horses will never break down again. Everyone saw where Barbaro got hurt. It is always unfortunate when a horse goes down, but the bottom line is that they are just very fragile athletes. By the way did PETA make any noise after Chelokee went down on Friday or were not enough people watching?
