I get needled here sometimes for being eternally optimistic about racing and painting rosy pictures about it. But whatever I've tried to do in capacities as a media member or slightly public individual around racing, has been done to encourage interested parties participation in and enjoyment of the sport. It's temporarily disheartening that some feel such an eager and voracious need to attack and belittle, but in any walk of life, that won't deter anyone who has real passion for what they're doing.
I rest my case

Anytime you can draw out Quiet Chris and Smooth Operator to take a shot at you, you can be rest assured you have done something right.

You know you are on the correct side in a debate when the other side keeps quoting thier "credentials" as they make remarks.

Don't forget about Stevie Belmont. If you engage him he might tell you that Smarty Jones was on his top 100 list the November prior to the Derby.
