There's really no need for caps here. If you have the goods it's not necessary to blow your "cool".

Kinda wonder why this has to be "top secret". Time for a credibility check.

I doubt if it were to occur that it would have a deep seeded impact on the game.

Dixie all you have to do is watch and see if hes scratched from his next start, and I believe 100% that something is being done.
There are a few retirement foundations and I'm sure they would act to give a millionaire like Shake a nice home.

No.. Just a deep-seeded impact on the life of Shake You Down.

And those that are involving themselves in this don't care for the attention it would generate.

And a lack of appreciation for a horse that put you on the map as an owner. You would think that maybe something inside of him would realize that whomever is trying to buy him, is doing it for the right reason, and maybe Cole would smarten up. I'll never understand it.
I wonder if MR Cole ever intended to race this horse in that spot, or if he hoped for jjust such a reaction by someone to give him a good hime without HIM having to pay for it. I would guess that may have been his motivation.

1) I am not anonymous to the host. He's been buzzing around since August.

2) Our host has been threatening to ban me and deleting my posts for a week. I COULD be wrong, but I believe my post concerning BTW and the trolls was deleted by Byk. I doubt Bethani or the other guy from Bklyn. would bother.

BLAH BLAH BLAH, I think I made my point.
The only people who should criticize the anonymous guys should be the ones who aren't anonymous themselves.

perhaps that will engender a more level-headed approach to posting.
i wonder how many temper tantrum posts i've typed, but hit the 'back' button, rather than the submit button....gets the words out of the head, without anyone having to suffer thru reading them!

i'm not criticizing anyone for being anonymous, i'm critical of their behavior based on that feeling of being safe and secure behind a keyboard! i know my postings are from me, not a persona. i communicate exactly as i do in person, which is why sometimes my posts can be misconstrued, as i have a very dry sense of humor. so much of what i type tongue in cheek seems to be serious to some, especially those not used to me.

people would be shocked i think...well, maybe not. i have a quick temper, but it cools pretty rapidly. i'd hate to put up something that i know five minutes later i would be embarrassed about typing--especially since it's not something i would say out loud. i try to walk away for a few minutes if someone ticks me off, so i don't put into words exactly what is in my head.

cooler heads must prevail.
