Jeez, lighten up, sea. Learn from Savage and stop being so overly seeeeeeensitive. Barbaro wasn't a pet to the family who owned him.
Don't mind BTS. He's just upset because Serena cleaned his girl's clock Sharapova over the weekend.
Hey buddy, I just personally heard Michael talking on the radio, making light of this horse's injuries, and making fun of the female owner's speech and the motives for putting the horse down.
I am totally disgusted in Michael Savage. I fully expect that this is the last night I will ever be posting to a Savage thread. He showed his truest, classless colors tonight.
He had said that he was in a real bad mood, feeling very cynical all day, but that is no excuse for the way he was way over the line tonight. If I saw him now I would shove his sorry *ss up against a wall and call him out for his remarks.
I have closely followed the ups and downs of Barbaro ever since the initial injury. There are many excellent and caring people here at FR who have followed Barbaro's medical care very, very closely on dozens of threads over the months. Many of those people are horse experts and medical experts or both. They well know the nature of all the problems that Barbaro has had in trying to heal. It has been a gut wrenching number of months wathching these great medical people trying to save this strong willed horse.
Savage was totally ignorant tonight when he was making light of the horse's injuries, his stud possibilities, and the insurance question. If these owners were only interested in the insurance they would not have gone through all this dedicated care over these many months. To question motives here is just pathetic!
I don't want to go any further on this. Suffice it to say that Michael Savage showed himself to be an ignorant, uncouth pig tonight. He has a major problem, but we knew that already didn't we?
And I don't want to have a damn thing to do with him or these threads again, unless he gets educated on this story quickly, and then comes back on the radio in the next days and apologizes profusely!
And if you want to disagree about this, I suggest you read up on the history of all of Barbaro's problems since the race when he was injured. Take it easy.
Savage needs help. And he says he is an animal lover.
Pathetic!

To all you lovers of Barbaro, I apologize to you, in your deep sadness today, if you didn't want to see this post of mine. But since we have all gone through this together for months on end, I just wanted you to see how one person in the media is cynically treating the deeply sad story of Barbaro today.
Love and prayers for Barbaro and to all who care and cared for him.
