Quote from Senator Blutarsky on September 28, 2024, 2:11 AM*****TheStable.ca Owners Please Read*****
The first 5 on this list like their whip too much, and to beat and or kick horses excessively.
Many participants have a vested interest in a race's outcome.
Those whom wager, the gamblers are typically the most in the dark of the horse's ability not with standing past performances and tools, other conditions made available.
Gamblers get a bad rep, because some not all, but possibly many are self destructive and behave foolishly. They are not analytical, in control, and when they are not destroying they are seeking action with no regard for the consequences on their lives, and family. Just bleeding out cash and time.
While horseman tend to get more appreciation especially from folks like you, now that you're insiders, owners.
I haven't heard one gambler for as long as I remember in forums, in person, on track, say beat the crap out of horse, kick em, drug em, torture em, none of that - or that is ok in order to win, win at any cost. For the gambler that is all they can do to succeed is to win.
As a matter of fact, I hear the gamblers more so speak, act out, and the insiders more so remain silent, turn their back.
I won't put words in your mouth but if you love harness racing like you say you do, your current opportunity especially filled with enhanced access to participate, your team's communication, their horseman which are some of these clowns - I expect you to speak out, unless you stand up for horse abuse and are not willing to call these @hole clowns out for being the scum that they are and sharing that you do - not - want - them - on - your - horses, with everyone including AMac!
Don't be hypocrites, cowards - because if you say nothing, do nothing, you only care about how you feel and winning and that's it and you're scared that it will diminish the way you're perceived by these insiders that side with these creeps!!!!
That in part, is a great way for you to start chiming in here, engaging this forum, because silence on this sh!t is deafening, I won't forget, and you will regret your inaction as it will fester in your conscious, subconscious and soul. Fear sucks!
