I wish I would have been here this summer -- as we would likely have been best buddies on that bandwagon. That's been my key horse since he came to America -- from keying him in the Special/Preakness double to singling him on top of the trifecta on Saturday -- he's taken great care of me and in every way he looked to be at least Bernardini's equal at six times the price.

What a gift.

Okay. So because I'm a moderator, I'm not allowed to stand up for a horse getting a ridiculous amount of bashing, most of it being nothing more than out and out hatred?

Listen dude. You make ridiculous statements and I'm going to respond accordingly. I'm not going to initiate any trouble on here, but please don't expect that, just because I'm a moderator, I'm going to let anyone say whatever they want without any response. If you're respectful, I'll treat you with respect, but if you're obnoxious and boisterous and inflammatory, I'm taking off the gloves too, moderator or no moderator.

You had a problem with what I said? Awesome. You're one of the few, so I'm not too worried about how you feel.

"Frankly," you seem to be way too gassed for picking Invasor and getting respect from Oracle, but that's just my opinion.

What about when you said that you couldn't wait to see Bernardini win, so we would cry like salty little girls...Was that respectful?

He lost, no disgrace, like Kasept said they run the race 10X, it probably comes out 5 for each. Some on here wanted to see proof that he was great and got ripped for it, go look at the Bernardini is thread it's full of people boasting on Bernardini and others question doubting his greatness. There were alot of way out of whack observations on Dini and some questioned it, no big deal. The doubter were right, it happens, could have easily gone the other way and you would have been the lead cheerleader for the Bernardini haters are idiots group..

Go ahead and read Oracle's posts earlier about him screaming "The paper tiger is done" at the top of his lungs, then saying Ghostzapper would've urinated on him and Barbaro would've bitch-slapped him, and tell me there isn't any hatred for the horse.

That isn't hatred. Seems to me like he was overemphasizing an opinion to get a rise out of the Bern fans. Looks like it worked.

A total copout. This can be claimed as a reason for saying anything hateful on this board or in general.. "I was just trying to get a rise out of you, and I did, aren't I smart?"

ha ha, I wasn't singling anyone out, I just think this is more of a result of months of bickering than hatred for the horse, heck Thor's Echo has been a one horse wrecking crew for my wallet, first he gets nosed out by Bushwacker for third Sunshine Millions day costs me a very nice tri, and of course I didn't have him in the Pick 3....but come on...how can you hate a horse?

Of course you're allowed to stand up for a horse that is getting bashed, even as a moderator. Only problem here is that there was no bashing of Bernardini. I fail to see why you take it that way despite the numerous comments from many people to the contrary.

What ridiculus, obnoxious, boisterous, or inflammatory comment did I make that made you take the gloves off? I don't remember anything like that.
On the other hand, stating that people should be shot that hold a particular opinion seems a bit off the reservation if you ask me.

I don't have a "problem" with what you said. Frankly to me this is all a silly diversion to take my mind off other things. Whatever I said was done in a spirit of honestly debating the merits of the horses. That you're not worried about how I feel is a great relief.

I'll admit that I did get a lot of satisfaction from being right about Invasor. This is what we strive for right? to be correct about the biggest race of the year? This had been building for a long time and to finally see it play out exactly the way you thought, well yeah maybe I am too gassed. That will quickly dissipate however and I'll be brought back down to earth. The game always does that. Hey, us Invasor people have had only a few days now of gloating. How long did we listen to the Bernardini brigades? All summer.

finally, whatever I have said has nothing whatsoever to do with getting respect from Oracle or anyone else for that matter. That was not my objective.
