No.. Of course it can't hurt. But you can see readily that there are no allegiances being switched by the debate.

No allegiances of the active posters in this thread are being switched, but there are a lot of people reading this thread (and not posting) that may be swayed one way or another by reading the 'discussion'.

It's all speculation, but it's hard to digest some of these miraculous turnarounds.
I'm a vet, I don't cheat, I'll defend trainers I know, and your implication that if I defend a trainer it means I'm a cheat is moronic bullshiat.
