Sniper...there are a few rocket scientists on here who have taken what I said and turned it into me implying he can effect the outcome of the race. If that were the case I would be sending him envelopes filled with cash each week and instructions on which horses to call to the winner's circle.

Thats fine if it doesn't bug you and some others. To me it's ridiculous and annoying.
