I don't know why you guys criticized that Better Than Honour poster.....Big Brown topics completely dominate this board. As well as they probably should, but still I thought it was weird he got kicked out.

I think you might hold off on the assumption that "Better Than Honour" was excused from further participation here for a number of reasons.

1) Although it was clear BTH was a bit of a lightning rod on the subject of Big Brown I saw nothing that made me think he was so offensive to warrant expulsion.

2) Sometimes people leave the site of their own choice sometimes for short periods and sometimes forever. The energy it takes to argue with others day in and day out even if your right is draining and occasionally people choose the end of a battle and to skip the rest of the war.

3) The people who control content here are actually pretty tolerant types who seem to encourage free thinking and comedic contribution however even they have lines of personal affront which can be exceeded by the few who are truly only interested in being nasty and offensive.

My humble advice would be to wait until the light of day and a new week gives Steve and the others a chance to respond to this particular person's status on the site before saying he was "kicked out" as it may not be the case.

Going into the Belmont, it can be argued, dear I say, Big Brown has been "more" impressive than Secretariat in the first two legs of the Triple Crown and at very least, has been equally impressive

you gotta be kidding.

Thank you. I was just getting ready to say the same thing.

Bye..
Thanks Hoss I didn't see that previously and have not read enough of the guys posts to be aware of how slimy these posts were. I was giving the guy the benefit of the doubt but obviously I was better off not knowing more about what earned the guy the death penalty here.......next case professor!!

Maybe because he was an idiot, whose only purpose in 75% of his post were to insight arguments by making completely idiotic statements. Does that clear things up for you?
