I was going to, but it's far too negative down there.

Most of it is....which is fine. I see nothing wrong with some mocking.

But, you'd have to admit that many of the people mocking tonight are the first to scold other posters for being negative, mocking, etc. It is what it is.

You know this is a tradition though and it's weird without you and Coachie.

Its time to take the voting out of the process. (With all due respect to Steve and his vote)

We should have a graded stakes point system in place which will not only REWARD horses and their owners for their achievements BUT also encourage them to race more.

Triple Crown and Breeders Cup races are worth 15-10-5 pts on WPS. All other GR 1 race pts are worth 10-7-4. Grade 2 races are worth 8-5-3 and Grade 3s are worth 5-3-1. At the end of the season add the points and we have our champions. Fan interest goes all year as DRF keeps the point leaders like standings in all other sports newspapers.

This concept is similar to what NASCAR does for their drivers and owner points standings and their post season awards. Do the math that way and we will see who the most deserving horses were this year! Animal Kingdom would not even be in the top 3!

Any mocking that took place on that thread (and I was surprised at how little there was compared to other years)... isn't there a difference between doing so while waching something as a collective group and personal attacks on this particular board?

I know you know I'm not starting anything with you and I get your point but to me there's a difference.

Besides most of the digs are funny and not mean.

It's all subjective. What you find funny might be viewed as mean by others and vice versa.

I don't know what a personal attack on a message board really is, but some might view mocking how someone looks as a personal attack. Regardless of who the person is. Mocking is mocking.

You're right.
