Default The vaunted "Where is Zito" thread..

The "Where is Zito" thread wasn't dropped because it was insulting to Nick Zito. It was dropped because the vast majority of exchanges between those posting on it were simply taking haymakers at each other. There was absolutely NOTHING of substance to it.. Nothing.

Criticize Nick Zito all you want based ON HORSE PERFORMANCE... Don't criticize, bash is moreappropriate, each other BECAUSE OF YOUR OPINIONS ON NICK ZITO. There's a nuance there... And it's something you just don't seem to comprehend. And in fact, your whole premise starting the thread was simply to incite animus. I WON'T TOLERATE IT.

As for leaving up the thread with Mike's widely criticized Albertrani comments in August, the difference is THAT NUANCE. He said something ridiculous and indefensible and was soundly hammered for it by people that responded with their opinions on Albertrani and what a terrific trainer and person he is.

If you don't trust or respect Joey's, Bethani's and my ability to discern what is acceptable here and what isn't, then DON'T post...
