I get what engine ONE means. Maintaining a purity to something you hold dear, that's a nice sentiment.

I can't say I like the glitz, distractions and all the other nonsense that goes on in the sport these days either. It's no longer about the sport or the horses themselves.

It's funny how people rip on the Breeders Cup people for changing the event in much the same way but don't get what engine ONE meant.

it's possible no one ever tried to sell a free table to rubes before. and people never drank before noon in the 70's.

but even if that's true, it's no excuse for the bc marathon.
