Allure? Hilarious way to glorify something that isn't all that glorious.

It's about being right. (Something many of you so rarely are)
Respectfully, three points.

1. Who exactly are you making fun of with that first line? The people who consider themselves more fans than cappers?

If so I would argue that those are the people who at least try to bring others into the sport.

There are few of us (racing fans) as it is. I don't see any need to make fun of any one group.

2. Whether or not horse racing is glorious is subjective, is it not?

If it's defined as "marked by great beauty or splendor" I would argue it is (glorious).

3. Re: the being right part...

You make a point of adding in that last comment and what I'd like to know is, since the implication is that you are right a lot why don't you ever post your picks?
