THIS particular one was inaccurate in my opinion and since it seems that opinions run rampant on this message board, I'm entitled to mine as well. As for what you're referring to, I know some things about YOU as well, but unlike you, I didn't feel the need to bring that up.

Knowing what another poster sends you in a PM hardly qualifies as knowing anything about me. What it really does is tell you about the person who sent it. Considering the only personal friend I have on this site is Steve, and I am confident he didn't discuss me with you, anything you heard was heresay and likely the jealous rantings of a wannabe. I'm used to it.

As far as this particular situation, if you actually knew anything accurate about me, you could assume I do have some actual knowledge of what went down and that is what enabled me to have the strong opinion I posted.

Nobody sent me anything about you via PM (with the exception of one person who IS considered your friend.) But whatever, Andy... you've obviously made your mind up about me before you even knew me. Your loss...

It really isn't about you at all and I apologize if I was out of line with you before. However, just so you are VERY clear about this, Steve is my ONLY personal friend that posts on this site. ELA is the only other that knows me personally at all. So, be wary of those that are representing themselves as my friends.

So, why not enlighten the people to what you know? You talk about hear say but how can we discern your being accurate when you dont even give an inkling of what you know.

When you dont say anything substantive other than 'this is crap, whatever' (verbatim), how can anyone take you seriously? What you say you know is hear say to anyone else unless you shed some light on it, and if you dont, you sound like you are just expressing some form of sour grapes.

If you know something, say something.

It's no different than having the winner of the first and you're horse is a late scratch in the 2nd.All they did in essence was scratch the whole 2nd race.

I have been in situations in the jocks room where weather conditions are a concern wether it be driving wind and rain to the bottom being frozen under a soaked track.
Management comes into play alot of the time when riders have meetings with them BEFORE the races, usually managements stance is ride the first and see if the conditions are ok, when deep down they really know its not ok they just want to see if they can get jocks to ride.
