If you don't care then stay the fuck out. If you do come in then shut the fuck up. Nobody put a gun to your head and made you click the link.

A beautiful animal died and probably deserves more respect in his passing then many of the posters on this thread.

It's called nature, ck, this is what happens. But nevertheless, you made my point.

"Beautiful animals" die every second. Why did we get this one stuffed down our throat for damn near a year?

Someone did make a great point that this animal received far better medical care than half of the children in the US... I for one am glad he is out of his misery.

I can still remember watching Gary Barbaro return an INT 102 yards for a TD. That was simply awesome. I don't remember who the hell we were playing, but I just remember my Dad and I jumping up and down from our seats at Arrowhead hugging each other. lol

Because this is a sports thread and even though this is an animal he was a champion and these horses do not get to this level unless they have the desire to win and compete...

Sometimes, putting an animal down is the kind thing to do.

No kidding. It was a horse genetically engineered to profit from our gambling-obsessed culture. I am glad the horse is finally at rest and all, but it's kind of a sad commentary that this is a matter of national sports importance.

Hell he was probably only kept alive all this time so they could continue farming him for inseminating other horses.

Quick call the police. Have them arrest the person that physically forced you to reenter this thread, or read a single news item about it, or watch a single broadcast. If you're not interested then move along. It's a quite simple process.

As for money spent or time invested, what's it to you? It's not your money. Outside of the time you spent being forced to read/hear about it, none of your time is involved.

Sometimes and with some people I have my doubts.

I find humor in the people who act like this horse was an integral part of your lives. It was an animal, genetically engineered to have small, thin bones so it could run fast, which coincidently makes its bones brittle.

this animal was treated better than most people its entire life. In nature, a tree would have sprouting on the buzzard turds it became a year ago.

Its hardly a tragedy.

I'm waiting for you to post a thread about your next sprained ankle.

Whoever made that point is completely full of shit.

I said that it received better medical treatment than "many places and stations in this country." There are humans who don't have access to that standard of care, it is true. I didn't say "better than half the children in this country", which would indeed be a bunch of BS.

I mean, on a national level so many people are worried that there is this deadly health care scarcity epidemic, but here we have hundreds of thousands, if not millions, being pumped into a horse that can't stand up. If Barbaro had been some nameless old nag - it would have gotten the needle a long time ago. Having baows that are a goldmine pays off I guess.
