I guess despite dissing (who still uses that word?) them, the stewards did in fact give Velazquez some consideration. Imagine that....

Probably, but at least they did something.

Good thing Johnny V talking to the press got him less consideration with the NYRA Stewards.

Wow, what a back track! He shouldn't have talked about it but Maragh deserved 30 days?

I am enjoying your childish eagerness to turn the discussion back to attacking me. Some people just can't help themselves, I guess. Insecurity?

In contrast to your imagination, I never said Johnny shouldn't have talked about it. He should have stuck with what he first publicly said about it coming off the horse on NBC. That was appropriate. Yes, I think the public accusation of a deliberate attack at the press conference was unprofessional, and bad for racing. It was also trying to influence the stewards into action by trying the case in the press. Yeah, I also think 10 days is short, but at least they did something.

Incredibly obtuse and obstinate (frighteningly in that order), a lethal combination!

Your opinion in this thread has been egregious and now you're trying to save face. You have said REPEATEDLY that it was unprofessional of Johnny V to say anything but now you're saying he should have just done it once, on TV rather than in a press conference.

Stop with the bad for racing nonsense, the majority of people won't even know Maragh got suspended. The only way this is going to be known by the majority of Americans or racing fans is if Maragh and Johnny get into a fight.

You are HORRIBLE with making personal remarks about other people when you get defensive. I am completely secure and spared you no leeway in pointing what I believe to be your inconsistent and generally awful opinion on this topic and others.
