Haskin weighs in on the O'Neill suspension and nasal strip ban.

so, what, was cali supposed to not bother with the case since o'neill won the derby? surely you don't think things should be ignored because of the timing? he's a repeat offender, if it gives racing a bad name, perhaps they should re-consider the laxity of rules that allow repeat offenders to keep on doing what they do. does it suck for racing, absolutely. but whose fault is it?
