Betting is the ultimate way of saying you really believe something, because you are actually putting YOUR MONEY where YOUR MOUTH is. I believe his point is it's easy to make crazy statements when behind a keyboard, but maybe some wouldn't if it actually affected them somehow. Seriously, as much as I like it here, losing money would bother me a whole lot more than not posting here for a week.
I will take the BTwind's argument a step further.. No wager, no legit opinion. Anybody can make a case for any horse...but, wager on it, and your opinion gets my respect, but not necessarily my agreement.
