Honestly, I and I'm sure everyone else forcing...errr discussing this could care less if you like SS. Bet who you like. To bet someone else other than who you like because someone on a message board said so would be ludicrous. You stated why you didn't like SS, those that do like him responded. If you didn't want a response maybe you shouldn't have posted it, as this is a message board and the point is to discuss things.
You didn't have to respond as I was replying to Cajun...but thanks for your input. You are right, nobody is forcing me to play SS...as I have said, I will play him, underneath on my own. For a period of time discussion it was not, it was like many have done before...stand the boy up and tie him to the whipping post and start lashing. I am not in the majority here, as I remember, I believe only 3 of us argued against SS. Should I change my opinion of SS, Nafzger, or the Bluegrass? Maybe. Will I? When the posts come out possibly I will. We 3 who stated our claims against haven't swayed any opinions, nor have any of those for swayed mine. As for the other site, they all know what goes on here and you all know what goes on there, I'm not getting into a pissing match when the common goal is the same...HORSERACING!!! I've said all I can say on this, thank you for everyones input.

What exactly was the point of that? Pity?
Uh oh. Don't make me go over there and read.

I wasn't trying to lash out at anyone... just didn't agree on what he was saying about Street Sense. Heavens... opinions are like assholes... everyone has one.

Got tore up pretty bad "next door", they ganged up on me, now I got a broken arm, sprained fingers from typing trying to defend myself...might go back for more manana.

What do ya think Moodwalker, did they convince you to play Street Sense yet?


My exact post...no need to get Blocky all excited, Cajun.

I do have a broken arm which I didn't say you did, my fingers do hurt from typing with one hand defending my opinions which I, you and everyone is entitled. I am of the opinion that I was in the minority and felt that I was ganged up on. Minority is a fact...ganged up on is an opinion...remember this is a message board, I'm allowed to have one as are you.

Now, I have supported this board over there if you bothered to read any more of my posts or whoever is the real tattler here(freakin' grade school)read any. I have especially supported the proud owners of SumWon and DeeTee stables who have been mocked repeatedly. I also have stuck up for that site and a few of its members a few weeks back,
because I felt they brought valid points and were found out & trashed.

BOTTOM LINE

There is great info at both sites about horseracing, am I right? There is great "discussions" at both as well. Why can't we just leave it at that?

That was my original viewpoint as well. When a few of the members over there started some unnecessary stuff, I just chose not to post anymore. It didn't make sense. BTW... I didn't care for Street Sense either. That is until I saw him in Tampa Bay. The colt just might be that good, but maybe not. I'm not forcing you to use him on your tickets... it's your perogative. Well hell... I wish more people would leave him off. His odds would go up!

Thanks, those comments that were made were in bad taste and definitely uncalled for, it's unfortunate that they made them to you.

I think SS is good, very good compared to many in the field, if he wins I'll probably lose...that's gambling. Good luck to all.

That's your opinion...This was mine...Now let us give the thread back to Street Sense and all have a nice day. Agreed?

Why are you such a freaking Moron?? LOL......Wow...You had quite an outing there buddy. As far as the other Forum goes...it's kind of quiet over there. At least here there's always something to do. As far as Street Sense goes...The race on Polytrack is a complete throw out. Keeneland went from being a fun track to cap to garbage in one year. Maybe I just am biased because of Poly. I think anyone would be crazy not to have on at least one of their tickets a Street Sense - Circular Quay boxed exacta.

I'm crazy. I'm going to let CQ beat me... 8 weeks off? No thanks.

Blah,Blah,Blah....you know you may be right, but I'm so sick and tired of hearing about this layoff crap. Let's just say a few things about this.

1. Would a world class trainer like you know......ugh....Todd Pletcher send a
horse to the derby that wasn't ready???

2. Would Johnny V. choose CQ as his mount if the horse wasn't ready??

3. Have never ever ever bet a horse off an eight week layoff??

Now I don't mean to come down on you Cajun because you are one of many with this opinion. Go look at all his replays like I have done many many times.
This horse is potentially a monster. I may be and judging by my Derby luck in the past...will be wrong. But I will sure as hell take 8-1...10-1 or higher on him than I would..say 7/2 on everyones new hero Curlin.
