Default I'll Say It... Big Brown Should Be Scratched!!!!!!!

I Know Most Of The Bloggers Here Don't Like Me . And After This Post I'll Be Banned For Life. However I Love Horse Racing And Have Watched It Since September 1974.
Just Take A Moment And Think, Not One Person On The Radio, Web Sites , Writers ,the Pros. Nobody Has Said This. They Have Said Things Like If Big Brown Is 80% He'll Still Win. If He Is Not 100% What An Injustice To Big Brown , Racing Fans And Horse Racing.
We Will Be On Worlwide Telecast Millions Watching, And Nbc Will
Talk About Nothing But The Quarter Crack, And Show Picturesand All The Stuff Smut That The National Inquirer Would Like To Show.
God Forbid Big Brown Comes Up Lame, Or Limping Or Worst. It Will
Set Horse Racing Back 100 Years.
We Just Had A Big Problem In The Last Month With Peta And All The Liberal No-nothing About Horse Racing Commentors Wanting To Ban Racing. Now I Would Like To Ask The
Vet Doing The Work On Big Brown. If This Was Another Race, If This Was Another Horse. Claimer, Alw , And The Owners Or Trainer Ask You If They Could Run In 14 Days What Would You Tell Them?
I Think He Would Say Give Him A Couple Of More Weeks Or Time Off.
Nothing Heals A Wound Like Time. The Pressure To Run In The Triple Crown , The Tv Coverage, Big Brown Will Never Have Another Shot
At This Has Caused Everyone Including Dutrow To Go Against Their
Gut Feeling. Its Wrong To Ask Big Brown To Run If He Is Not 100%.
That Is The Injustice. His Record Reputation Is On The
Line. But Big Money, Tv And Greed And Our Own Excitment To Want To See The Triple Crown Be Run Has Clouded Our Judgement. I Know Nothing About Being A Vet, A Trainer , A Jockey, Hell I'm Afraid Of Horses, But After 34 Years, I Know If The Horse Isn't Right Then It's An In Justice To Him. If He Loses They Will Blame The Quartercrack.
I Hope He Wins . I Have Been On His Bandwagon In All My Posts Since Fla Derby. With Everything On The Line Money Fame Glory Immortality, I Still Think It's Wrong To Ask Any Horse To Run
Less Then 100%. But We Humans Really Don't Care. Its' All About The Money. God Forbid If He Comes Up Lame... So Long Everybody
