S2s,
I kinda understand what you're saying.
Seems to me that some folks have much more of a problem with the owners than the horse.
Maybe they're unable to make the distinction.

btw...I also hate disguised racism.

Never did I say that.
If that's what you read, go back and reread my post.
I never mentioned a name.
Am I to blame for something you thought you heard me say?

I'm assuming he thought that "btw" meant "Blackthroatedwind" and not "by the way." I thought the same thing...

I meant btw as "by the way".
I'm not backing down from my stand against racism.
If you took what I said in the wrong way, that's why I said you needed to read it again.

No, you agreed with a poster that called me a racist without making a distinction.....that is what you did. By inference you called me a racist.

You really need to think this over because you are completely f'n wrong.

I made no such inference.
When you decide to reread what I've stated, I'll accept your apology.

Actually I did not, I knew he meant " by the way ", but as he was responding, in agreement, to the one post in this thread by that slime, one where he called me a racist with absolutely no justification whatsoever, and now with typical internet cowardice simply refuses to acknowledge what he did, I felt it was fair to say he was agreeing with him...considering he basically said " I know where you're coming from buddy ".

Just more of the same. No accountability on the internet.

I'm done with this nonsense. I tried to clarify the matter.
You seem to be very insistant.
Go fight it out with Sent 2 Stud.
All I said was that some people have difficulty making a distinction between the horse and the owners.
Have at it!

I seriously didn't see ANY racism on this thread whatsoever... it's a hatred for what they are doing to the racing industry.

Let's see, you agreed with a poster who called me a racist with absolutely no cause whatsoever. You did this, mind you, to someone who made only one post in the thread....which was directed towards me. What inference would you like me to make.

After that you stated " I also hate disguised racism ".

Yeah, yer right, you said nothing to lead me to my response.

Amazing stuff.

If this truly happens and the horse is sound after the Breeders' Cup Classic, I would be PISSED, and my support (which isn't really support other than the fact that they happen to own my two favorite horses) for Darley would REALLY deminish...

I thought they'd do the right thing because of their finanical position and display some sense of sportingness - and they still might - but there would be NOBODY more disappointed in them if they retire Bernardini after the BC...nobody...

I know that he is probably a $100,000,000 peice of horse flesh and potentially the most expensive horse we've seen in years (way moreso than FuPeg was), but with money not being a huge object to those guys and the fact that he is such an efficient and easy mover and is sound - retiring that horse would be a damn shame....a damn shame...it makes me mad thinking about the possibilty of it
