Didn't mean to snap at you, but honestly, you started a nearly
identical thread last Monday, did you not?
It's no news that there are a variety of problems that dog the game, and they are always worthy of discussion and attention. However, I spend countless hours specifically working to publicize the pleasures of the sport here, with Dee Tee and on "At the Races". I don't buy into the sky-is-falling rhetoric and the crap that is endlessly spewed by those who can't seem to figure out what there is to like about the sport. (Maybe if they worked at their handicapping a bit harder, they'd magically discover what there is to like about it.)
If people feel there isn't anything to appreciate about racing, fine. So be it. But why must those that are down on the game work overtime trying to diminish everyone else's enjoyment of it? That's what I've had enough of... I'm immensely proud that unlike most racing-related communities, this remains an upbeat spot where people that bet and enjoy following racing can congregate.
