and like i said above, people have been criticized for not shipping. now they're getting criticized for shipping.
it's ridiculous.
if people have issues with the owners, i can understand that. but to suggest they're greedy or shouldn't ship isn't valid criticism.
people wanted him to come east...now he is, but to the wrong spot. so now it's greed? or he suddenly shouldn't ship after having done so just fine before?
people complained when they mentioned possibly skipping the santa anita derby. they decided to run-that was being a good sport, but now if they run it's greed?
we complain that horses don't run enough, then we complain when they run too much. oh, he's too young to retire, oh, he's too old to run.
you're damned no matter what you do.
